don't care if your right or who the hell is right on transducer angles but damn good job on the simulator. thumbs up just for that alone.

How was your fishing experience in weeds? Could it still detect fish? Doe transducer get confused in a jungle of weeds @ 1ft depth?

You sound like a real whiner..

Very cool. And informative.

2d sonar sux just buy livescope

I like how thorough the review was. I was looking for an inexpensive fish finder to put onto my Intex Excursion 5. Used the link to buy. Hopefully it’ll assist with my small pond/quick fishing trips

I wish i saw this video before i bought mine great content bud

I used it today it really works

Lucky is such a garbage brand 🤦🏽 cheap toy

Couldn’t disagree more

I saw a video that to can buy a universal cord to convert the trolling Minn Kota to your Garmin

Good job!

Thanks

Hmm I thought angling your transducer down thet much would result in some rooster tailing water??

Great review, I want one now! Can't afford a lot of fishin' gear these days the way prices have skyrocketed, but at least this seems to be worthwhile. I don't need anything more than what this "Lucky" finder offers!

Thanks for all the time invested into this. I got my trans level with how the boat sits in the water. From the coin level. Works good for mine.

Yes. Ignore the manufacturers and don’t level your transducer for best performance. Haha.

How can you take a guy seriously that doesnt even own a comb

I disagree with this video and any transducer video talking about proper transducer placement. Optimal placement is going to be different for everyone unless you have the same boat to weight ratio and placement. You don’t take into account the weight of the boat - full tank of gas / three quarter / half, tackle, how many people on the boat, etc. This will affect the ducer placement regardless of any leveling to the ducer. Trimming also affects the angle of the ducer. Too high and your bow raises which will angle your ducer down…. Too low and you start to level the boat, but you may start to see interference w/ the lower unit which will DEFINITELY impact images…. There’s too many variables. In the end, you’re never going to have the ‘BEST’ angle anyway so there’s really no point to these videos lol.

Love it. I have the same boat and try my best rendition of this one day.

Not sure on this yet . I set mine up and tilted the back of the transducer up quite a bit to compensate for the motor. I had an image on side view and traditional that would rival any advertisement or high end install. Without really knowing much about the unit and limited time I had to do the rest from my garage. After dropping the transducer slightly but then adjusting to the coin leveling on the water method. The transducer angle came down from the back tipped up to closer looking level. My screens have not looked as clear to date and I am still tweaking .

How does a slight down angle affect clear vue and standard down imaging?

First of all, your 3D graphics to explain your point is brilliant, well done. Transducer Angle to Transom (TAT) is something I am very aware of on my USV's, in fact, the entire design of my USV (AIMy) was based around TAT. While the coin concept worked for many that had just horrible TATs, I agree, it is not a solution for everyone as "slightly down" is certainly the ticket. A very quick and easy 'on the water' test is to idle over some fish on a wide cone angle such as 83kHz for Lowrance/Simrad users to check your arches. If the arch is slightly longer on the left then it is 100% in my opinion as it is slightly down. A perfectly equal arch I would give 80% and a longer right side arch ... 0%, get the boat out of the water now and fix it!

Thanks for the video, very helpful; I'm working on doing the same thing on my 16 foot Lund.

You did a great job here! This is exactly the conclusion I came to simply using trial and error. I tried the coin leveling thing and the result for me was terrible.

Oh I see the problem. You're using a Garmin unit. That's your problem. Switch to a Simrad, you'll be much happier.

good stuff.👍

Those lines are more than likely from your di being on the same frequency as your si. Around the 2 min 30 sec.

Great video

If you have it at an angle your depth reading will be off

Hummingbird recommend 5° down

Hair ????

What was the angle of your transducer in the before test? Was it 10 degrees? It looks further down than that.

Any ideas why my side imaging stopped showing the dark area down the miidle that should be the depth of the water I'm in. Meaning my whole screen, no matter what depth of water I'm in looks like it would if you were like in a foot of water. This just started happening.

I've always have my transducer about 5mm to 10mm down I've never have my transducer level when planning you get the signal almost in center of boat and when just fishing drifting the fish and lumps or objects are almost in center of under the boat I've tested in shallow water were it picks up its pretty much spot on when angled down my pop back in the early nineties told me this always have slight tilt down not level and since this I've always have good luck

You can't trust this video. He's a affiliate, HE WANTS YOU TO BUY IT, BECAUSE HE MAKES MONEY WHEN YOU DO.

My girlfriend bought me this for my birthday last year and it works great for kayak fishing.

Great video. Thanks for sharing this.

We towed a big trailer with industrial steel boxes weighing one and a half ton with no self breaking, with an Opel Astra. We towed it for 70 km no problem. A 1 ton Nissan truck could not pull that trailer. No jokes

knowing what you know which is way more than me, what finder would you pick for a 12.5 kayak? I am only just now starting to research these ,,,found out side imaging and portability are two data points to look for. Any advice you or your viewer base can give me would be much appreciated

I came across this guy at the river that had one of these. He said he worked great. He had a boat full of fish.

Nice video but your background music is really annoying.

Thanks for the info! By doesn't work with other trolling motors what do you mean? I purchased an adapter cable and my sonar works on my Terrova. But that's all I need. The cradle is a hassle if you don't make sure it snaps into place. Listen and watch the snap and it's ok. For me, the things you mention aren't a big issue.

That would work great on bridges and jettys

The tips are very useful. Besides, I found the active fish will keep on the sonar and follow the bait ? Is that too obvious signal for active fish?

Excellent tips. I also love a good dropshot bite.

I love this video. I won the fish finder!!!

We appreciate the video, friendly tip, it tie that cooler down , and or replace it with one that has a positive lock so ya don’t loose the lid! I’ve done it before lol

Obrigado pelo review! Comprei um hoje! Saudações de Porto Alegre/Brasil

great review. Very helpfull.
