Good show, ky

[@russelljones2468]

Thanks! The side imaging and just riding around, looking for new spots/schools, is what I needed help with. Merry Christmas from SW Missouri

[@3poundCrappiefishing]

You bet

[@jimpergerson2772]

Love your videos , but may I suggest If you take a cardboard box and cut one side out you can use it as a shade over your fish finder when your doing fish finder videos and we would be able to see the screen.

LiveScope👎 side imaging👍. I search, find and locate crappie all with side and down imaging. Don't need scope. I guess because i don't have LiveScope lol. I am not going to get LiveScope for that very reason. I want to keep my skills sharp. Great video.

[@imsowright90]

I love the Livescope view and nice crappie.

[@tombunch7305]

While trolling raise the motor some to get that left beam better coverage at the start of your vid. Could see where on the second clip you had raised the motor for that hump toget a better shot of the bottom with that left beam. Just a helpful tip..thx for the vid👍🏻🎣

[@edwrobel7342]

Great view!!

[@3poundCrappiefishing]

Thanks 👍

[@scotthenderson4376]

I don't have the boat for it but I this really me want to get back into freshwater fishing

[@sowabunga]

Based on the title, I expected to see more on side imaging views. Not a criticism, just feedback. I am still learning how to find the crappie. I did enjoy the forward facing sonar videos showing how you triggered the fish to bite a horizontal presentation. Thanks.

[@marksavage5782]

Great video as always. I like the new view.

[@olanlunn8284]

Awesome video

[@outdoorsadrenaline]

Thanks for sharing that was fun to watch! I hope to be able to experience this this year and buy a livescope system. Are you using the lvs32 or 34? Thanks for sharing your fishing fun and knowledge.

[@lonniehall9006]

Would be even better without those grid lines. Ky

[@solomonott633]

I like the new image I like what you said about the 126 sv In your last vid.Hope to put it to work shortly .Great job on your vids.

[@3poundCrappiefishing]

Thanks 👍

[@FreshwaterSouL]

Very bad glare on your screen and makes it very hard on what to be looking at in the SI mode

[@scottsegler121]

Great video Matt
I am glad you mentioned to make a come t on the view definitely has been on my mind every time I watch thinking man I like this a whole lot better than the ActiveCaptain keep up the awesome videos

[@3poundCrappiefishing]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lugnutzz75]

Awesome video but I prefer the hows and why’s and not a live scope screen. It’s nice but I want to know how to catch them, why they are there, etc.

[@bradalbarado2377]

Great video. Where is your home lake if you don’t mind me asking. I live in Edwardsville Illinois.

[@3poundCrappiefishing]

I fish southern Illinois lakes

[@abrown2669]

What about deep water highland reservoirs?

[@blakesicking2308]

So with something like this, are you setting up 30 foot away? Casting to them and slow reeling back as you watch it sink to them? I struggle with positioning my self for best success.

[@adambizzle8348]

On this particular lake, the crappie like a moving bait and not so much vertical jigging. You have to give them space to chase your bait in order to get them to bite so you sit back 20-30ft

[@slabbusterrtr7690]

Wonder what there doing up in that shallow water bait maybe in the shallow water? is that normal this time of year there? ..nice hawgs by the way 👍

[@theguideschoice429]

Great job it looked cold and those fish were shallow. I’ve watched a lot of your videos try to learn to locating SacALait . I Live in S La and I run Charter Trout and redfish trips in Burma’s La. My off days I enjoy bass and crappie. I am catching fish but I am struggling locating and identifying crappie on my electronics (Lowrance) where I fish. Mostly rivers and bayous 4-10 feet occasionally 15 feet in some of the rivers. Can you make a SHALLOW water side imaging locating and identifying video.
Thank you in advanced and Merry Christmas.
Captain Vic

[@3poundCrappiefishing]

you bet

[@victorschlemmer8291]

I see you got the new Striker Apex gear. So, how do you like them????

[@3poundCrappiefishing]

Love it....top of the line

[@randydykes1972]

How deep is your lake? I never see over 15 feet on your videos

[@3poundCrappiefishing]

45=60 deepest

[@randydykes1972]

Can't seem to find crappie less than 20-25'.
Thanks, just wondering

[@darrenloveless7401]

Your water temp looks about same as ours in middle TN. Is it common for you to catch fish like this in 5-9 ft of water? When the water is this cold? Ive been catching a few here but in 20-28 ft of water. Maybe i need to be checking shallow also.

[@arttrumbo9496]

I'm in Northern Middle Tennessee and last week with water temps in the low 50's I was catching them anywhere between 6 and 12 feet.

[@cyberopey1]

Don't care for the glare--- stopped watching
