Great video, I watched the other one you have made as to how to navigate through the striker 4 menu and play with the fish symbols. I recently just got a native kayak and was maybe looking for other ideas for the mounting options for the display unit itself. I have some stuff from yak gear but I feel it seems to be really bulky and wasn't really designed for the striker model as in a mounting plate seems to not mate up with it very well. I would also be switching from the just screwing to the kayak itself to using track mounts. Are the Hobie tracks comparable in size? I see you have some listed just wondering if you or maybe someone might be able to point me in some starting areas. Thanks again.

Here is how I mounted mine ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vir8gm-meQ4.html I think the Hobie tracks are the same size as mine are.

@1Cast1Fish 2 года назад

You have 2 options if you are mainly after mapping and depth. Buy a fish finder that accepts a mapping card...pop it in and you are ready to go, or use a model with quickdraw contours and map the lake yourself, which takes some time.

If I upgraded to the garmin striker vivid clear view from the garmin striker 4 plus do I have to replace the transducer also?? I really love the clear view option and I’d buy it bc it fits the same exact way on my fishing jet ski.

@1Cast1Fish Год назад

So the Striker Plus uses the standard duel beam transducer, and the Vivid uses the GT20 transducer. The Vivid transducer is not the same size as the plus transducer. due to the added Clear Vu elements. The fishfinders themselves are basically the same size though. If you but a new Vivid it should come with the required transducer.

@tomb1734 3 года назад

Nice video but I need your help. Are the transducers different? Striker Vivid 4C comes with a GT20 transducer and the Striker Plus 4cv comes with a CV20-TM transducer. Which is the better transducer or are they different in application only. If they were the same price which Striker would you recommend?

@1Cast1Fish 3 года назад

So I believe that the CV20 is a typo...the Garmin website does not list a CV20 transducer, only a GT20. So with that said, if the 7 extra colors mean alot to you...go Vivid...if not and it's cheaper go Plus 4CV.

@Autospecialties1 3 года назад

Can you use the striker 4 transducer on the striker vivid CV. The reason for asking is I mount my striker 4 transducer to a 30lb thrust mini kota trolling motor and that being said I do not think the striker vivid CV transducer will fit on my 30lb thrust mini kota trolling motor. I use a 14 foot square stern sports pal canoe and I would not want to drill holes to mount it on the canoe itself. Are transducers interchangeable with some models?

@1Cast1Fish 2 года назад

Not sure of the ability to interchange the transducers....I know the CV model transducer is different, so it may not work...with that said I do have both models and transducers....so I can check in the next week and try them out and see if you like.

Does the Striker Vivid have side imaging

@1Cast1Fish Год назад

No it does not, in the Garmin line up side imaging is called Side Vu...I also believe that within the Striker series you have to go up to the 7" before it is offered.

@Felidor101 2 года назад

Do you guys think it's worth the upgrade from a striker 4 plus to a vivid cv?

@1Cast1Fish 2 года назад

Depend son the types of areas you fish, and what type of fish you primarily target. If your mostly fishing small creeks or shallow water (less than 5 feet) you probably will not gain alot from the CV. The CV shines in deeper water for structure ID.

I want to buy a fish finder with a depth of 500 to 1,500, for the sea, can you please recommend a marine chart for El Salvador, Acajutla, Sonsonate

@1Cast1Fish 2 года назад

The Garmin Striker plus 4 cv the same as the plus 4 duel beam right?

@1Cast1Fish 2 года назад

The CV has the Clear View down imaging feature....The Plus 4 does not. They both have the Quick Draw Contour Maps

@Nick-te4kl 2 года назад

I see all that now bass pro shops don’t offer the 4cv just the vivid.

@1Cast1Fish 2 года назад

Yeah the 4cv has been discontinued for Vivid

I watched this because I was curious about the Garmin Plus CV, mostly because I have never heard of it. After searching Garmin's website high and low it looks like the "Plus CV" is only offered in Australia. Perhaps I'm missing something

@1Cast1Fish 2 месяца назад

The Plus CV has now been replaced in most markets with the Vivid. You can sometimes still find them discounted though.

@NicholasHorvath 2 месяца назад

@@1Cast1Fish Thanks for the reply! I own the vivid cv, got it at the end of last season and wasnt able to take it out until last week. I was concerned maybe a newer model had come out in the meantime that maybe I had missed, but I now see that isnt the case! I know some mapping features have different licensing for Australia when it comes to Navionics and such so I figured it wouldnt hurt to ask. Your videos are great and have helped me a ton, from mounting my transducer with duct seal (something I already use to make bullet/pellet traps) to which frequency/gain settings I should be using in different depths and clarity I still go back and watch your stuff all the time. Thanks!!!

What’s your favorite color scheme for CV? Are they the same for 400 & 800? Any tips on setup for CV to get best results? Thanks. New Sub with black bell notifications 👍

@1Cast1Fish 2 года назад

I will be coving the CV in depth, but I like the blue tones the best for the majority of use.

@Danxiong 3 года назад

Wow basically no difference at all but the Vivid CV is my first fish finder ever so I can’t complain. If I upgraded I’d be pissed.

@1Cast1Fish 3 года назад

The Vivid CV and the Plus CV are both great, but definitely save your money if you already have a Plus CV.
