The goals of this video are to 1) prove that side imaging technology produces highly detailed pictures far off to the sides of the boat, and 2) help you decide if this technology is right for your fishing situation. To accomplish this, we filmed on an ultra-clear lake and drove a shallow rock flat covered with boulders and also containing sunken boats and tires. An in-boat camera was focused on the fish finder screen while a drone flew overhead (synched with in-boat camera). Jeff “Kolo” Kolodzinski simply drives the structure and makes observations of what he’s seeing onscreen while the overhead drone shot confirms the accuracy of the side imaging return.
The fishing applications of side imaging are many. Unlike traditional sonar or down imaging, side imaging reveals key structure, cover and even fish off to sides of your boat. Rocks, trees, sunken brush and even manmade objects like boats and tires are clearly visible. The angler is then able to make informed fishing location decisions and even place GPS waypoints on items of interest and return to fish these select nuggets immediately or at a later time.
The technology featured in this video is Humminbird’s high-frequency MEGA Imaging (goo.gl/iqUr73), which is optimized to produce accurate lifelike returns. For a broader look at several of today’s fish finder technologies, check out Jeff’s comprehensive ‘How to Read Fish Finder Sonar Technologies’ video ( • How to Read Fish Finde... ). It’s a straightforward inspection of 2D sonar, down imaging, side imaging and mapping complete with excellent drone and underwater video support. It’ll take the mystery out of these units and help you determine the best product for your fishing needs and budget.

SI is definitely a game changer on any body of water. It cuts the learning curve by years.... Cool drone footage👍👍👍

Can I ask what camera were you using for under water view with the Marshall 508 monitor?? Thanks Paul.

@hoangthang8772 11 месяцев назад

In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens ru-vid.comUgkxeAxH15LxhjGlg5-CRYqjTGTEH0tbY4vk recommend The Hook units will show some lag on button pushes and screen switching. The big ticket item though is maps. If you install a mapping card such as Navionics or the free C-Map Genesis which has a lot of map detail, then moving around the map with the cursor or when running down the lake can lag significantly on the Hook units, but is seamless with the TI units.

Definite advantage for any bass angler who can afford it (or buys it regardless).

Would a 5in get the job done or waste or money for side imaging lowrance hook2 5 tps

@Voids666 6 лет назад

jave I own a hds7 gen 2 touch and if I could own a hummingbird helix I would in a heart beat there side imaging is next level. I’d get a 9”+

@jwill9877 5 лет назад

It will get the job done if that's all you feel like spending. You probably won't see fish on the side imaging unless your zoomed in and the conditions are perfect. But side imaging shines not by detecting fish but by detecting bottom changes and allows you to easily follow them. I will never own anther boat without side imaging. If I had to choose between side imaging or down I would take side. But the good thing is if you pay for side you get down imaging.

@mikeries8549 4 года назад

For 3-4 Benjamins you get everything but in a tiny package. 5 inch screen is adequate but you'll want the unit about 20 inches from your eyeballs. I got hook2 5 ts and sure I wish it was bigger but I can buy a lot of bait with the loot it takes to go up to the 9 inch screen..

Do you ever catfish and put it on film I would love to see that that's what I loved watching I love this video I wish I had a fish finder like that what kind is it your friend Ray

Thanks Ray, happy to call you friend as well. Here is a good catfish video from the Red River in North Dakota. (Technique is universal) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ldGx8V9ynpQ.html

@jasonkennedy6650 6 лет назад

Hi there. Hoping for some help. I just bought a used boat and it has a hummingbird 797c2 gps side imaging that came with it. When i put the view to si the screen stays black. Tried the reset and its still black what could be the issue?? Thanks.

@Wired2Fish 6 лет назад

Hi Jason, the first thing I'd check is sensitivity. If it's on a low setting, you may not be getting a return signal. Also try adjusting your range inward, say 60', which produces an excellent readout on average. If it's still black, it could be the transducer isn't talking to the unit (networking) and lastly, the ducer or head unit could be defective. Are you getting a down imaging readout?

@jasonkennedy6650 6 лет назад

Wired2Fish Thanks for the info, will try... 2d sonar is working fine.. Will update you and again thanks.

@jwill9877 5 лет назад

@@jasonkennedy6650 does the down imaging work?

@mikeries8549 4 года назад

Try spraying the contacts where it connects to the unit with electrical contact cleaning spray.

@Nolander520 6 лет назад

So side imaging is only worth it if it's Mega Side Imaging and bigger screen? So it's not worth it on helix 7?

@Wired2Fish 6 лет назад

Nolander520 absolutely not, and we made a strong effort in the video and the video description to say side imaging is based on need and budget. For many, only 2D sonar is necessary. The intent is to show that side imaging works. The consumer decides what’s appropriate for them. As you mention a SI equipped HELIX 7 or HELIX 5 at $500 may be the right product.

@joebrings5817 6 лет назад

Bigger is better when it comes to seeing things like bass on the screen

@NathanR82 6 лет назад

Agreed. Bigger screens are better for this. I have a Helix 5 and I don’t even use side imagining. If I had 3 or 4 given to me like pros do, I wouldn’t get anything smaller than a 10 inch screen. But since I have to buy them myself I’ll just use my 5’s.

@Nolander520 6 лет назад

Nathan R yes, I got helix 5si as well and I can only use one side at a time to see anything. The helix 5, 7, and 9 have the same resolution, and I haven't see a good video with anything less than the 10

@victorxavier9977 6 лет назад

Nolander520 - Is your opinion that side imaging is not beneficial/ useful on a 7" screen? I want one for my yak.

humminbird better than Lowrance?

@deltapromasterlauj4848 4 года назад

Filip Hummingbird is the Telsa of cars vs Lowrance which is a level or two behind like a Honda

@filip92ification 4 года назад

@@deltapromasterlauj4848 Some say Lowrance displays better details than Humminbird. Humminbird says he can't draw accurately

@mikeries8549 4 года назад

As with all techno gadgetry "it depends". The hummingbird software has more settings and is more adjustable and is superior in certain things like changing frequencies. The Lowrance is more set up to be on auto. So if you love fiddling with things...hummingbird. if you just want to fish...Lowrance. The best fish finders are Garmin. I bought a hook2 5 ts because I'm a tightwad. So far I'm liking it a lot. Chart plotting for under $400 with side imaging etc. What a deal.
