Great video, Jay! I just got a LS with the 32 transducer this winter. Amazing what I've already learned in the handful of times out. Using it alongside a sonar or flasher is eye opening also. My boys definitely love watching how the fish come in also.

Great video Jay. I recently purchased the Livescope plus and it’s my first foray into live imaging. Thanks for the advice on settings I think that will help fine tune it. I am struggling a bit with forward view deciphering what is a fish. I will keep at it. Thanks again for another great video.

The hdpe is the same stuff used on jetboats for sliding rocks on the river. Also used as slides for the bottom of ice sleds. Super strong stuff and can take a beating

I have had livescope for 4 years now, I too like the blue color scheme, my settings are pretty similar to yours. I just cant get over how gold colored those crappies were though! Wow. I must have an old version of the summit pole, yours looks a little better than mine, I'll have to go check out their site.

I use y 8610 with Livescope Plus system in a hard shanty connected to a 27” monitor via hdmi and also connect my aqua-vu to my 8610 with av connection. This way I can split screen Livescope and aqu-vu and record it all with the Garmin active captain helm feature. Additionally, I can add a third split screen and wirelessly connect my garmin VIRB ultra 30 action cam. Love all the connectivity of the 8610

Do you find that pressured fish get spooked by the high power of this transducer? I see lots of fish with mine (and catch more because of it) but we’ve caught even more fish when finding the fish via livescope and then using a low power mode flasher or camera only vs fishing under the Livescope.

I’m thinking about getting a live scope so I know very close to nothing about them. So would I have to buy the live scope and a transducer or does the transducer come with the purchase of the 8 or 10 inch screen? And do I have to have all the extra wiring like you did in the video or is that just for recording videos?

Great overview. It would be awesome to see a video using the lvs34+ for fishing small lakers and small baits at 70-100 fow. I find the lvs32 loses small baits around 40-50fow. Nice to see the chase even when using crappie tubes for 45cm lakers. Also turn off TVG for lakers otherwise your bait gets filtered out of view near the surface. All the best.

While the imaging on Garmin is superior, Humminbird's shuttle for their mega live (and 360) bundle is way nicer than the Garmin branded one. Hence the need for all these aftermarket ones.

If humminbird didn’t have the clear SI/DI and lakemaster, it would be trash. I run 2 birds in my boat but have a stand alone garmin unit for live imaging because it’s head and shoulders better than humminbird, also have you ever thought about trying a 16v battery? They say it provides a clearer image.

So essentially what you're saying is you're not a man if you aren't rich? Well this boy out fished one of his friends who had a live scope with just an fl 8. Doesn't feel so stupid being a boy when you out fish your rich friends grown livescopping ass. You don't need a live scope to catch fish. They're just nice to own.
