Thanks to a Subscribe who asked me if I have ever tried a Loop knot. I was impressed not only how it caught fish, but the strength of the Loop Knot. I hung into a brush pile multiple times and straighten the hook instead of the loop knot breaking. I caught some nice crappie doing this comparison video.

Finding Active Fall Crappie with Side and Down Imaging Sonar
Hello i just found your channel. Im in Pickens . Looking for some tips for hartwell and the other areas. Haven't had a boat in many years and just bought a used one and getting it setup to go try my luck. Appreciate the video and ill check back in on a local sportsman . 👍✝️🙏💪
Thank you for watching Larry. 🐿
I use a dark background on the 2D. It uses less voltage and it matches the downscan/side scan screen.
How come you, if you run right over it, can see a small sunken boat on the bottom in say 30ft and you can see it on both sides of the sidescan? I can't see that your theory is right either then, although I agree that what they normally teach that sidescan looks like is inaccurate too.
Just bought this pole and got it mounted. Only problem is the ram ball mount still allows it to move up and down with little to no pressure. In forward mode it is tight in its position on the side but can move forward up and down. Did you have this same problem. This couldn’t have been their intent in design? Am I doing something wrong?
I haven’t had that problem, and I have run mine foward, down and perspective angles. Mine rides around on the floor of my pontoon boat when I’m going down the lake and I haven’t had issues. I’m not sure why yours wont tighten up? I’d call fishing specialties and tell them the issue you are having.
@@FishinwithSquirrel thanks so much appreciate your response!
Fixed it ball mount screw turning, thanks
@@johncal9403 awesome, glad you got it fixed, I think you are going to love the setup. Good luck fishing!🐿
43ft is the distance from the transducer in a straight line, not accounting for the depth, so they could be at 0ft depth 43ft away from the boat, or, directly under the boat at 43ft depth.
thanks helped a lot
The area under the boat that isn’t covered by the side imaging beam is very small (approximately 5 degrees to either side of vertical). The conventional down-looking sonar that is built into the side imaging transducer covers the areas below the boat and the Side Imaging Units allow you to view a split screen that will show both 2D coverage and Side Imaging sonar simultaneously.
Thank you for this! You're so right on subtracting the depth of the water? I just asked this question on another video. All the other examples were absolutely baffling and didn't make any sense to me from a mathematical standpoint. I agree with @boydlittou9446 below, the manufacturers really need to step in and explain this.
How would you fix it if your hall snapped and steering wheel spins freely, and does not turn the engine or cable
Hall snapped? Not sure what you are asking but if your steering wheel just spins, I would pull the cable out of the steering gear box and manually move your motor back and forth to see if the cable moves or if it’s your steering box. I didn’t have a steering failure, I was remodeling a pontoon boat and need to remove the helm. You may need to replace the cable and steering box. If you do, you may want to replace it with hydraulic steering.
@@FishinwithSquirrel sorry I meant helm and I plan on replacing all of it, but just do not know how I would get the cable out of it to Pool it all the way out if it is stuck in the helm. It snapped on me and it acts just like a vehicle when you’re steering shaft snaps or comes apart, had no steering at all, but I believe the cable is good.
@@FishinwithSquirrel and is hydraulic steering better? And is it hard to install?
@JohnSanders-bf3xi You should be able to remove the pin and pull the cable out unless it is just too corroded. Ising the steering wheel to remove it is just easier and keeps you from busting your knuckles. If you are replacing it anyway, you could just cut it
@@JohnSanders-bf3xi I have never installed one but I do have a boat with hydraulic steering. It is definitely an upgrade.
Excellent instructions, had it done in seconds
Wtf are you planning on catching? Those reels are 5 times the size of what you need. Lmao!!! A 6500 will catch anything in that lake!!!!
Also illegal to clean your fish on the boat!
No need to clean fish on the boat! Blacks has a fish cleaning house with water wash down and waste barrels. Super nice set up. You should give Blacks Camp a try.
Always be prepared to catch a big fish! The minute you aren’t prepared, you have a Monster Break you off! See Tennessee River video I posted , losing a 1k fish.
That makes more sense....
nicely done
You shouldnt have to subtract anything. You are correct. If that was true then you would have 2 different distances if using a different khz. Because the angle would change in water column. I think im correct lol. Maybe i have questions to. Good video. Ive always thought same as you do about this topic.
you got the plastic on upside down put the hook through the pink side
I’m guessing you have the “Offset Depth” setting turned on.
So overall, what is your opinion on the HD Pro versus your old HD Live? Do you think the Pro is better ? Worth the extra cost? What is better about it? Or Worse? Thx.
Haven’t ran it enough to really give an honest opinion yet. My hds live and carbon ran on 800 gave me excellent images. When I get a little more run time on it I will do a comparison video. 🐿
@@FishinwithSquirrel I think that would be a great idea for a video ! Looking forward to it Squirrel ! I am going to be putting my old HDS 12 live on my bow next week. I am going to see if this can help my find the crappie in the trees. I can use the trolling motor then and see if the 12 finds em ! Those were some good cats you guys caught !
@Crappie_Hunter_Seeker good luck with crappie! 🐿
Awesome video squirrel nice catches 🥰😍🤗👋🏻👍🏻👌💯🐠🐟🎣🩵💙🤍
Thank you Miss Joan! 🐿
Great video squirrel
Thanks Sampy 🐿
@@FishinwithSquirrel you're welcome

Good video Squirrel 🐿. Do you have the pleasure of living on the lake?
👍🐿
Images look good ! This is what I like about Lowrance. Very easy to set up. You are going to get the groceries with this unit ! Enjoy !
Thanks Crappie Hunter, can’t wait till I scan a cluster of slabs! 👊🐿
Another great video squirrel
Great video 👍🏻👋🏻😀🥰👌🤗💯😍

Oh my gosh becky.... did you see the size of his sonar? 😆

Is your transducer on the back on your pontoon?
My transducer is mounted on the back left (port side) pontoon . Here is a link to the installation.How I get awesome images from my Graph! ua-cam.com/video/7cqwV5TQf_0/v-deo.html
Nice set up!
Thanks Bill! 🐿
See you decided on the Pro 16. I went with the Live 16. Only had it a week so far. The larger size really helps and I am seeing things and fish I never saw before. So far I am very happy with it. I am looking forward to your future videos to see how yours looks. Caught 31 on Lake Oconee Friday. Caught 39 on Lake Russell a few days before that. New unit is paying off already ! I know you are going to love your new unit as well ! Keep up the good work and great instruction Squirrel !
Thanks Crappie Hunter !
Great video squirrel
Thanks Sampy👊🐿
@@FishinwithSquirrel you're welcome. Keep up the great videos
Pristine explanation Dawson, good job sir 👊🏼..
Thanks Matt👊🐿
Which jigheads are those?
Good job explaining everything. I think engineers lay awake at night studying on how they can make life miserable for folks.😂😂 Can’t wait to see the new images!
I agree, job justification for engineers 🤣😂
Great catch
Great video
Thanks Sampy!
@@FishinwithSquirrel you're welcome
Thanks 😊
No wonder he was so quiet the rest of the time 😂😂... Great attempt y'all. Was so great seeing you 2..
🤣😂 good to see you as well Matt!👊🐿
Ohhh Nooooo
Hard lesson learned
That hurts !
He will live with that one for a while! 😊🐿
Dang lost begun
He is still hurting over that one 🤣😂🐿
More confused now than I was before. 😂
Range - water column = distance from boat. Pause the screen, look at the depth, go to the top of screen and water column is the same depth, so if you see crappie in water column they are under the boat. They show up on 2D the same time they show up in water column, 2D is under the boat a cone 1/3 the depth.
Harry, thanks for the comments, I appreciate you viewing my channel. Crappie were not under my boat, I spotlock and cast to them. Check out this video, I think it will help clarify things. “MASSIVE 20' wide school of crappie right under peoples' feet and they don't have a clue! ua-cam.com/video/k4NglvYG6gs/v-deo.html
Split your screen, side and 2D. 20 feet of water……20 degree cone, 6.6 ft cone. Go over a bush shown on your 2D, with your logic, the bush will not show up on the bottom of side scan.
Go to 50 ft. water and scan 40 feet left and right…….explain?
Good job buddy!!
any update?
The modification is still working. My SKEG will deploy and retract now. I haven’t pulled the back cover plate off to see how the plastic tube is holding up. Soon as I do, I’ll post another video. Thanks for watching 🐿
@@FishinwithSquirrel awesome thank you. I am having similar issues so I am curious.
The image is from SI and DI combined. If you run exactly over something, you will see it on both sides of SI. Bait fish is directly under your boat. ua-cam.com/video/Oc9jSTpAyWc/v-deo.htmlsi=74G45jD5OuveYi4r&t=376 That is why they are on both sides of SI. So your video is true only for part of the water column which is not covered by DI beam. If you want to measure horizontal distance to them, you need to subtract their depth from that number to get the correct distance.
