Tom, it would be really cool to have you give a run down of how you use a tiller boat combined with basically all rear mounted electronics (including rearward positioned live imaging) to create a fast, efficient command center. Everything you are doing is designed to maximize efficiency (and simplify filming). It’s a cool aspect that a lot of people don’t even think about. It’s 10x more important for all of us weekend warriors to be able to maximize time on the water.

@HikingXCSkiing Год назад

Absolutely like how gently you place those fish back into the water.

@dbcustoms9707 2 года назад

started doing this exact same setup last year with the Garmin Live and slip bobs ...... it's always interesting to see how the fish are interacting with the bait and how you can modify your presentation to get their attention. Sometimes they would ignore a still bait on the slip, and wouldn't pay attention to it until you actually started to jig it up and down a bit. Sometimes they preferred the bait 4-5 feet off the bottom, rather than maybe 1 ft, but you wouldn't believe it until you actually saw their behavior on Live. Great content as always Tom.

@andrewlawson6224 2 года назад

There we go, a mega live video! Love it, Tom! You’ll figure it out better and faster than any other resource I have. Have this on my boat now but I’ve only used it for ice fishing. I agree, don’t care about watching fish eat so much, just want to use it for pinpointing pods. Side mount tiller like you. Looking for more content on this tool. Teach me. Thanks!!

The lapel mic and outstanding sound quality has me a new subscriber. Thanks for your attention to detail.

@brookensangling 2 года назад

Hard to beat the dropshot with live imaging. I've been doing this for a couple years now. You can hold the bait in front of the fish at any depth and pretty much call your shot. Nice video, keep it up!

Walleye Professor, you've done it again. Just don't pick up your lure as easily as the fish. Great seeing your 4 legged friend out with you. have missed your buddy, Surly. Would be great if Humminbird would get there act together. Have had a Mega 360 on order since last July. No info anywhere as to when it will be delivered. Probably get it after Christmas this year, or sometime late spring 2023.

@@TomBoley as a bass angler that drives my boat around a TON and am standing up higher on the deck of the boat I don’t want to bend to move a pole or have a pole super high up. Also the capability of moving the ducer with my foot while winding and working my bait allows me to to follow my bait better. Pros and cons to both mounts. I’m in Hayward too!

@loboyd691 2 года назад

Another solid video man. Coming to you from North Dakota. The lake we fish, Ashtabula, is a mess because of the spring rain. The visibility is getting better but its still bad enough to where we are going for crappies and white bass mainly. Your videos are about the only thing getting us through the walleye season. By this time last year my dad and I had around 80 walleyes caught. This year we have four caught in as many fishing trips.

@gtolson8989 2 года назад

Live imaging is an awesome tool for catching walleye. Humminbird has a ways to go yet to catch up with the image quality that the garmin livescope plus system has. But eventually they will all be the same. Love my garmin setup for walleyes.

Tom I have a alumacraft competitor. Can u show is how u rigged your mega live to the side and what I need to buy to make it work.

@davidlutz5602 2 года назад

Eventually yes everyone will have forward facing sonar. For me with a young family it’ll be ten years! Sad but most all tips videos around RU-vid are obsolete to me these days because I don’t and won’t have the coin for this technology.

@wiscowalleye7954 2 года назад

I like color palette 11, it really makes things pop. Also something I learned that’s not described anywhere is that each click on the mega live mount is 10 degrees which is helpful for selecting what degree angle you choose in the settings.

@veesar205 2 года назад

I Like how you emphasize the use of the different technologies and how they play in with one another. Often people overlook the need for SI when scouting and jump right to Live. Nice video and great shot capturing that aggressive fish! Ever considered doing a ML v. LVS34 video to really see the quality differences between the 2 platforms? I have to say, having used both, I’d go with Garmin all day long for the detail. Thanks for the Video Tom!

Can you do a mega live video and describe your settings? Clicks up from down on the ducer, mask or no mask, sensitivity, contrast, dynamic contrast level, etc? Also, that looked like the old software on the unit. Is that correct?

@mikeblowers7530 2 года назад

Based on this video, I would choose to pay for Garmin Panoptix over getting Bird mega live for free. The bird live is useable, but Garmin has a way nicer product. Thanks for the video Tom.

@Superkuh2 2 года назад

This reminds me a lot of using an underwater camera during ice fishing. You use it to find find the fish and watch reactions. It's too bad water clarity goes way down in summer. $1500 is a lot.

@RyanSchwietersOutdoors 2 года назад

You don't have a vantage on your boat, but it works great to mount to that! Auto stow and deploy with a push button, and 3:1 steering. I had my active target on a summit pole for a bit and it was a pain to go over to the pole and adjust it. I run the vantage from my seat, and it makes it a lot easier!

@brandon-tz6bu Год назад

Im just trying to get into the garmin livescope and trying to decide if i should hook to my vantage or a summit pole. Any disadvantages to using the vantage?

@RyanSchwietersOutdoors Год назад

@@brandon-tz6bu I have a summit pole and it's disappointing. I only use it ice fishing now. I have mine mounted to the vantage and I love it. I definitely wouldn't switch to a pole now. It's automatic and stows & deploys with the push of a button. And I can use it while I'm graphing around at idle speed.

Hey Tom I’ve been using mega live all summer with good success but at times I have some interference issues. I don’t have a 360 and I get this.. have you dealt with this at all?

@TargetWalleye 2 года назад

Did you install the "choke" cable that came in the box? It goes between your onboard charger and the accessories/cranking battery. That cleaned up a lot of interference for me that was sneaking thru from the trolling motor. If the interference is from other graphs, you might need to play with changing frequencies.

@ckoger11 2 года назад

@rometroy420 2 года назад

This video is so 2018 lol. I was wondering why you had not posted videos on Livescope and Walleyes. Hummingbird late in the game I guess. They are the best at side imaging tho, still prefer Garmin Livescope.to Mega live...that image is nasty.

I love the idea of this concept but I dont like the interference, no color palettes, always needs to rotate the pole (an ipilot pole would be great). And for the price point I am gonna wait a couples years before considering this tool. My 2D, DI and side imaging sonar hard to beat.

@sammenard3693 2 года назад

IMO, the technology is still in the embryonic stage and vast improvements are within reach. Technology will improve and the cost will be more affordable in a couple of years… I hope. Personally speaking, the tech is certainly very cool, but it’s not like I can’t find fish and have a meal without it. Fishing should have some secrets.
