So I’ve never fished with a live scope before… I have the UHD 93 SV. So I already have the unit and just need the ice fishing transducer. If you had to, what would you go with if you needed to get into live scope fishing. I guess I just don’t wanna be disappointed with the PS 22 if the LVS 32 is that much better. Ughhh… decisions!
This was the exact video that put me in decision that this is the thing I want to try out! Got one from happy angler store. Let's see what performance it will show in Latvia and Estonia during 24/25 ice fishing season😅 Thank You! Waiting for more!
when u get on crappie like that its insane. i like to see how far up theyll come and get it...theyll come all the way up to the top to get it when theyre aggressive.
Made my own pole for my lvs34. 18" when compacted and will do up to 2 foot of ice. Sits to side of the hole so isn't in the way. Total cost less than 50.
All you need is 6 grand for livescope and hole hopper. Used to be 400 for a flasher and some proper technique, an ice blue and some jigs. Now that is still fun. My 80 year old dad said fish know how to swim. Keep chasing them with more money!
I think you got the first video out using it on the ice, heck yeah! Appreciate the insights and footage! When you get a chance can you weigh it? I'd love to know the exact weight, for some reason I have been under the impression it is somewhere between 12-14 lbs.
Thanks buddy! For some reason I had it in my head it was seven but I think you’re right. I threw an Amped Lithium small battery in it to cut even more weight
@JoeHollandFishing heck yeah! The first upgrade anyone should do (imo) with that setup is swap that lead acid battery out for sure, easy way to lose ~3 lbs and make it even lighter! Excited to see how you use it this season coming up
That's is very cool, thanks for the video. Looks like your getting more into pan fishing "crappie" ,what is your favorite fish to fish for when Ice fishing Joe?
I'm a Garmin guy but lowrance's new eagle eye 9 will be a better buy for anyone looking at a sub $1500 ice unit. Not having to adjust the transducer every time you want to switch orientation from forward to down is extremely convenient. Why Garmin ditched the LVS 12 transducer instead of improving on it is a missed opportunity IMO.
A simple upgraded shuttle is all they needed to clamp the pole on as you hole hop , end of the day your dragging around an older outdated unit , I’d rather run my 34 and see clearer , less interference, and actual be able to spot fish on bottom
I wouldn’t spend $2,000 on old technology when you have newest tech at a price just a bit more. if they just sell the cable for few hundred I would think more would buy it for their old units. I seen a video on this unit about 2 weeks ago and thought garmin was taking greedy to another level. Buy the newest technology and don’t regret a expensive purchase (that goes for almost anything)
I understand what you are saying . I think this is more as a sidekick to the livescope, or a great entry level initiative and also great lightweight unit with ffs for the hope hoppers that fish a hundred spots a day. It’s just another tool that when used correctly can be incredibly efficient and helpful. It will be in my arsenal. I thought I saw MSRP around $1899 and usually stores sell it for less . The clamshell transducer and no need for a pole are big gains same with no black box
This needs to be way cheaper $1800 is not doable for the average ICE fisherman. I spent a couple thousands dollars 2 years ago on ice fishing gear, then last year for the first time in my life we didnt even have safe ice all the way to Canada so they think people are going to shell out $1800 or more in a Biden economy with the threat of a "Kamilaw" as the next ZAR of UnAmerica yeah sure.
The ps22 at $1200 is an easy buy. Problem is the garmin ice bundle with a 9 inch newer screen, and lvs 32 ducer is the same exact price at sheels for $2000.
One problem now is climate change. Here in S.W. Michigan lakes are not freezing over enough for safe ice freezing. Maybe by mid January are lakes safe.
I will just stick to my $200 striker 4.... i catch a boat load of fish with it and the wife wont make me sleep in my truck...lol... Learn to fish... how to read a lake... and you won't have to spend 2+ grand ... the plus side is you have more money for gas to go fishing...
Thanks for the video Joe. The PS22-IF looks like an awesome lite weight setup for fishing on foot when every pound counts.
Thanks Bud! Exactly!

so true thanks
This all reminds me of a old Hummingbird ssetup that would do down and forward scanning all at the same time.
interesting thanks.

nice work
Why would you need both units?
Big Joe , Crappie Hoppin. 👍🏻🌲🦞🦌🫎
Please tell me what kind of ice drill model is in the video?
Eskimo pistol bit I think. I love mine

You can fish without it too.

@@peterolsen8372 Last year it was crappie for sure.
Where are you ice fishing in July?
Had to hold the footage until the release of the new product.
@@JoeHollandFishing that’s what I figured, but didn’t know for sure.
Hey what lithium battery did u put in to
Amped
@@JoeHollandFishing Did you put a 8ah amp battery? How much does the PS22-IF weighs ???

Thats a good price point.
Should I upgrade my lvs32 to the lvs34 or should I buy this? The PS-22 is $1099 and the LVS34 is $1200.
Im a big fan of the 34
isnt that old technology though?
yes exactly but the delivery is new, transducer and lightweight hole hopper. no pole in the hole,
@@JoeHollandFishing thanks bud for the reply...cheers
@@JoeHollandFishing lowrance eagle eye live better price by far ..even if it requires a pole...just saying...

Noticed that cord looks short , or is it longer and adjustable so you can use it with thicker ice ?
It's adjustable, rest of it gets tucked in the bag.
put your livescope on a sled and drag around to hole hop no need for a second unit
I will give up a little technology for no pole. The regular panoptix is still very great tool for catching fish. I hate that pole it really sucks imo
This one is a great tool
Man I'm about to go pick up the regular 2k live scope package from Scheels here in a couple hours and these comments aren't getting me too excited

Can you chase walleye, like fishing crappie@@JoeHollandFishing
Giant crappies!!

True, Keep you eye out for various price point units.
Wow dude quit yo crying jeezzz! 😂😂😂

Very cool
Would like to see video no electronic old school
I have a bunch on my channel thanks for checking them out
PS22 has been out. I'm guessing the PS22-IF just gives you the little stopper on the cord is all.
It has the clamshell transducer holder and pointer . No more livescope pole, black box and lighter weights
10 grand to ice fish.....
Sign me up
Haha ice fishing can be anywhere you want between $40 and $40k . Personal choice and keep it fun for what you want to get out of it
One problem now is climate change. Here in S.W. Michigan lakes are not freezing over enough for safe ice freezing. Maybe by mid January are lakes safe.
It's always changed since the beginning of time.

uggg those ugly Atari 2600 old Panoptix blobs...that screen is such a mess of interference
