Great video and too the point, I just added the 10" to my sailboat caught 2 of the biggest Coho Salmon (wild so couldn't keep them) looking to target Kings I am sure it will be a little more adjustment on the fishfinder.
Great tutorial, thanks! Is it possible to find see what kind of bottom it is, like sand, pebbles or rocks? Would be when on anchorage. Would be great with an answer 🙌🏻😊
Howdy, terrific video, most helpful. Was wondering if you have any experience with dealing with the downrigger canon ball returns while using traditional sonar. Ours sometime will read that line as the bottom. any suggestions on this? thanks much
Can you search points of interest on land such as store or residential addresses in the GPS section of the new Garmins? I can only seem to find POI,s such as marinas.
Great how too. i tried to wipe down my screen while running messed up my sonar adjustments. how do i set it back to default settings. seems locked on the past view and cant get it back. thanks in advance. im not hearing fishfinder and dont see any fish. just blobs weird and cant get back
Dude... I love your videos and I'm a GIANT Sportsman fan. Looking at a 302 Open next year (I hope!) but I fricken can't stand it when people point to a sonar image and start talking about shit like I know what it is. Seriously. Couple of questions, because I don't understand the sonar thing. (Not much of a fisherman, but I'd like to get more into it when I get a bigger boat) 1) What is the perspective of what I'm looking at? Is this under the boat? Is it in front of the boat? Is it a side view? Am I looking down on it? 2) Please stop pointing at random dots, calling them "live structure" and moving on. Why is it live structure? How can you tell? Why do you guys always say "I'm gonna say" like you just decided it's live structure. 3) What in blue **** is a "live structure"? Is it a fish? Is it a coral? Is it a rock with a personality? Please and thank you
I'm still confused about how "scroll speed" works, if I always use ultraspeed when the ship is going slow and fast is it better to know real time in under water. why are there so many categories like slow, medium, fast etc. if ultraspeed is better at reading quickly real time fish in the water.. thank
Brian, the best way to do this is by using the split screen function. When looking at your depth range you just need to zoom to zero and this should allow you to focus in on the bottom. Let us know if this works.
Hi there, thanks for the great video. I have a Garmin 74SV. How do I reset the Garman without eliminating the engine data? I’m not really seeing fish on the screen but would like to reset it without having to re-calibrate the Nema set up for twins
CJ, we do not have a lot of experience with this unit as we do not use it in our production. However, one way you could try to solve this issue is to check your transducer selection in your sonar menu and make sure that it matches the transducer you have installed. Resetting your Garmin unit will not solve the issue so you don't need to worry about that.
is this a "bottom machine" or a sonar...because all I see this machine doing is reading the bottom......I have always thought that sonar had the ability to look / see sideways and forward......am I wrong???...because I want the capability to look forward and sideways...so I don't hit a rock or an incline of sand or coral......help please. thanks
way to fast and all i want to know is if my transducer is on the back of the boat where are the fish in relation to me in the bow of the boat when they show up on the screen?
Great video! Can you explain more about finding fish and what to look for on my Garmin 7 Striker vivid SV screen. Could you do a live video out on the water explaining what you’re seeing under your boat and that would sure bring a lot more understanding for the first timers like me, that know nothing. Thanks so much for the advice!❤
To our understanding this is not a feature that's available on the Garmin units. You'd be best to contact your local Garmin Dealer for more in-depth information. Thank you!
