Hey Jay, my fiancé watches all of your videos on RU-vid along with many other hunting and fishing videos. Yours are the only ones I can sit through 🤣 I hope I’ll get picked to win your newest contest so that he can come fishing. You guys would get along great I’m sure.
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.
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 just used my megalive today and it definitely helps to have panfish like crappie for focusing what settings are best. I just wish I had as good of luck as you!
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.
For a sec I thought your new thrive visuals model had sleeve tattoos all the way down to finger tips, but it was Jay carrying the shuttle with camo gloves on. 🤷🏻♂️🤣🤣
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.
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
Great Video Jay. Honestly though go back and watch Uncut's White fish slay day and tell my why anyone needs anything more than a PS-22 Panoptix transducer for jigging fish.. especially in deeper water.
Hey jay, Maybe you already got some videos or maybe it’s almost impossible to do ice fishing, But I think it would be crazy cool to use a live minnow fair size weight so it can only swim around like a 4ft radius in front of your camera. Watch those pike kill the piss out of it, Thanks for the videos jay. Love ya brother
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. Usually rich people who don't know how to get a fishes attention need something like this.
@@qouavang3646 4yr saving plan for a fish finder. Get outa here. Save another 1 yr for the Ion Alpha auger Save another 1yr for Eskimo insulated outbreak. It’s January and there is no ice in southern Ontario. Eve only been getting like 2.5 month of safe ice each year. It’s kool to watch Jay use this technology. But it ain’t worth it around here.
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.
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.
While convenient, I’ve found over time that screen recording from Helm on ActiveCaptain can be hit or miss/unreliable sometimes. Some clips glitch, hurts to have it glitch on a good Livescope eat. I may have to give the screen recording device a try on my 1243xsv. I’ll be curious to see how it works out, I know Clayton uses one too
Hello Jay. Awesome Video! Very informative content. I’m starting to put my Livescope unit together!Which I’m curious. What length of transducer pole did you choose from Summit Fishing Equipment @ 9:29 in the video? Also where did you get the glow light from. The one you have mounted on the shuttle? Thank you.
Great video,very informative😉👍 Just ordered Garmin Echomap with Panoptics, does the Dakota Lithium battery showed in this video run both units? And does the battery last all day on te ice? Great thanx
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.
Arclabs shuttle and pole blows away Summit , Garmin and Humminbird’s shuttles and poles. You want plastic or nice aluminum. Only bad thing about Arclabs is good luck trying to get one. I have in waiting since Mid December for mine.
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.
@@AnimalJones_outdoors just hit your power button one time and should be a drop down menu! Only scheme it effects is yellow and blue. But just something different.
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?
I feel like at some point those livescope ducers will have a built in gimbal like a gopro so u dont need the shaft and use it like a typical flasher ducer.
I have a question and I really hope u get back to me because I'm planning on buying a unit.can you use live image to search for fish on the ice? And also is there a flasher feature?
Jay...I have the new summit paired up with the garmin 8610 graph. Would you say it would be safe to get the large bag from Summit or do I need the XL? Thanks
@@JaySiemens thanks, I have the EchoMap head unit just looking into buying the LVS 34 transducer just confused on what to get. Also like the summit shuttle looks like I will get that one!
Good video Completely irrelevant as I don’t own live scope maybe someday tho I wish more people would have an outro screen like you do one of my favorites features in your videos
Not a fan of these shuttles, i did an ammo box build for under $50 diy livescope pole $20. Id rather see ways others are making diy shuttle and pole builds.
Garmin has better imaging for sure. However, mega live gets the job done. And if you have lakemaster chips and are used to Humminbirds settings and especially if you want to get target lock or network to existing Humminbirds on your boat, mega live is the way to go.
No comparison Garmin is and always be years ahead of any other manufacturers. Livescope was out 2 to 3 years before Humminbird put out mega live. Garmin already working on the next upgrade to Livescope.
