MAN.... WELL NEEDED VIDEO... BEEN USING THIS 2 YEARS AND STILL CLUELESS TO SOMETHINGS!!!! NOW THIS EXPLAINS WHY I CAN'T SEE MY JIG IN CERTAIN AREAS WHEN I CONDENSE THE VIE TO 15-20 FEET... THANKS!!!!!!!
Great explanation of the beam and transducer angles! In perspective mode, I notice that my picture clears up considerably when I back the gain off lower than I would in down or forward view.
im wondering what the best layout is of your ice holes in a 2 man shack for lvs 32. I seem to never pick up one bait as good for some reason. if anyone else knows please reply thanks!!
Well I’m sorry the person you spoke with gave you incorrect information. Here is information directly from their channel that clearly shows one click down is down is down view. If you are talking the lvs34, then the top being horizontal is down. The lvs 32 the top being horizontal is down. ua-cam.com/video/J_q9e6gZ8Rk/v-deo.html
That is actually something I rigged up to attach my underwater camera to my Livescope for a summer video. That video is here if you’re interested! ua-cam.com/video/6hA4mC6V11A/v-deo.html
Noticed you demo the Perspective mode at a 90 degree angle. Since it's introduction Garmin has used an 11 degree down angle. It's also marked as such on the Summit mount. Does this have any effect on your image?
That is a very good point! I didn’t talk about that a lot, but I have found that the shallower I am, I keep it closer parallel with the water and the deeper I am closer to that 11 degrees offset. It is sometimes difficult to tell what angle I am at since it is in the water and I will just tilt it until I see the best picture, but I don’t have near the experience with perspective mode. It makes complete sense because technically it shoots out 10 degrees to each side, so some of the cone would be out of the water at 90 degrees. Thanks for the input! Always learning!
hello. I'm having trouble configuring the echomap 74cv. I don't know if you could help me? I am not able to manually change the probe mode. it passes from the front down automatically, but for that I have to change the angle of the probe. would you have any configuration tips so I can do this manually?
Thank you sir I just joined your family and very good information. I'm getting a livescope but 1st I'm educating myself. Thank you again and I'll be watching
First of all your perspective was not correct. 2nd of all I can tell right away from your screen you don't have your livescope set up properly. Need to change your settings.
Hey man, thanks for thanks for the feedback! I’m not sure which part of the perspective mode are you talking about? Technically it’s supposed to be at slightly less than parallel, but depends how shallow you are fishing. I’m always learning and will never claim to know everything, so always willing to listen! Also, this video wasn’t specific to settings, so wasn’t too worried about cleaning up my screen. Just subbed to your channel! 👊
@TJ's Guide Service no worries man. I'm still dialing in my livescope now. This winter I played with a bunch of settings and finally have it dialed preety good. I will do a video of my settings for you to try.
@Stacy Hanson Not sure if that was directed towards settings, but here is a video where I go over my settings if you are interested! ua-cam.com/video/Aq4bPWmFBas/v-deo.html
Hi ,good video, but I have the lvs34 and I had just a 90 degree mount for my pole, it is possible do don’t move the angle,manually, I saw on my echomap on installation I just change orientation on screen it is ok, but for perpective i will need another bracket I think, thank to you
You can change it on the screen and it will work okay, but the stitching will not be in great spots. If you want the best picture, change on the system and manually
@@tjsguideservice thank you very much , I am a French Canadian and the word stitching I don’t know, would you explain to me , but I understand why Iwhen I put in mode forward I don’t saw very much the fish in this mode
Love you description video on what perspective to set up livescope mate, it’s been a big help on our Bass, Murray Cod and Barramundi here in Australia, definitely going to use perspective mode a lot more now. Keep up the great work.
I have a question. I have a fishing specialities pole on the STARBOARD SIDE of my aluminium inboard jet boat. I've been trying to get this livescope thing figured out and struggling. Here is the ? Since the transducer is on the starboard side, what side of the pole should it be attached too??? Inside the pole or outside the pole. Ty
Hey Jeffrey, unfortunately, I don’t know anything about the fishing specialities pole, but my assumption is that it would be on the outside of the pole when it is facing forward. I can’t promise that is 100% correct for your situation, but that’s what my assumption is.
Wow... Great video I'm very interested in side view but I keep hearing down and perspective modes. I'm doing a lot of reading but still confused. What position do you recommend for the transducer for side scan? Do you have any videos that you can share on this? Stay Safe Thank you
I’m not sure if this is what you are referring to, but side scan is actually not available with the livescope transducer. That is a separate transducer altogether
Yes and no. You can switch it with the software without turning the transducer, and it will still work, just might not give you as good of a picture. If you want the best picture I would turn the transducer as well.
Good content bro. Did you have the handle flipped backward? I thought you would want the handle to face with the flat angle side on the ducer which would be front.
Appreciate it! That’s all a matter of preference. A lot of guys like it so it’s pointing the direction it’s shooting. I like to have it like I am directing the cone. Tough to describe without a visual. Almost like looking down the barrel of a gun with the stock in your shoulder if that makes any sense. Either way, as long as you know which way it’s facing that’s all that matters 😂
@@tjsguideservice I use it very often in shallow water to locate shallow water walleyes, crappie and white bass. Too bad most fish moves down to deeper water during ice.
I'm a newbie with a lvs34 trying to compare it to your lvs32; mine looks different and can't really tell which way is forward or backward on my Summit pole. have you done a newer video?@@tjsguideservice
How shallow of water can you use your livescope in ? ... I have a lily pad area that usually holds gills and perch and crappie that is in 4 foot of water will it work in that shallow of water in forward or down mode ?
@@joemontello9372 I would say perspective mode would be best for that. You can use forward mode for that as well, but the scale would make it tricky to see very far effectively. Would this be through the ice or in a boat?
Great video man! I wonder if i install the transducer on the transom… it would be just forward and cover the whole area under, front and behind the boat
Appreciate it! I have actually thought about that myself. In a perfect world I would have one on my transom that doesn’t move, one by my console, and one on my trolling motor. Unfortunately, this isn’t a perfect world 😂
For a 17 foot G3 CC aluminum not having much room and not a lot of underneath routing options to hide cables black box on troller and bow, you think it would be ok to mount on transom next to GT 54? I mostly fish less than 15 feet and mostly in rivers and river mouths searching for spotted trout, migrating stripers and shad. I do a lot of 4-6 feet fishing
great information and the explation was top notch, Thanks andlooking forwardformote videos.
MAN.... WELL NEEDED VIDEO... BEEN USING THIS 2 YEARS AND STILL CLUELESS TO SOMETHINGS!!!! NOW THIS EXPLAINS WHY I CAN'T SEE MY JIG IN CERTAIN AREAS WHEN I CONDENSE THE VIE TO 15-20 FEET... THANKS!!!!!!!
Glad you found this useful! Good luck! 🎣
Great vid and well explained. Love fishing in that area of MN. Upper red lake, bowstring, Winnibigoshi. Watching from IA
Appreciate it, Christian! Some awesome waters that’s for sure! Much ice down there?
Great explanation of the beam and transducer angles! In perspective mode, I notice that my picture clears up considerably when I back the gain off lower than I would in down or forward view.
Appreciate it and thanks for the advice! I have found that especially with hard bottom I will lower the gain. Again, appreciate the insight!
Thank you very much! You made very short and easy to understand video.
Glad you enjoyed!
I am just getting started with Panoptix and your video very easily explained to me how to set the sensor. Thank you
Awesome!! Glad it helped! 👊
how does port and starboard effect livescope? why is there a difference if its mounted port or starboard?
Great video thanks for taking the time and breaking it down really helped a rookie like me out 👍👍
We’ve all been there! Glad it helped!
This is the best info on transducer position. Thank you.
Glad you found it helpful, Dan!
Very well explained! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed, Mark!
Perspective view is best for viewing 5ft to 15ft mud/sand bottom sections of a lake or river. Fish show up so well
I’ll have to keep at it and try get it dialed in a little better!
Good vid man, thanks
Glad you found it helpful! 👊
im wondering what the best layout is of your ice holes in a 2 man shack for lvs 32. I seem to never pick up one bait as good for some reason. if anyone else knows please reply thanks!!
3 hole layout that is
Good video. Can you leave it in forward and change it to down on the screen without pulling it out of the water and turning the transducer? thanks
Yes you can! It sometimes doesn’t give quite as good of an image but usually works fairly well. Mostly changes where the stitching is on the screen
Nice vid. But the way I understand the xducer. Youare showing Port side fwd view orientaion.
Thanks, very helpful
Perspective mode is intended to be used in shallow water.
Correct. I’ve always hear less than 10 feet of water is the best.
👊🏻💪🏼 super helpful
Glad it was helpful! 👊
Dam good information ! Thanks
Appreciate it, John! Glad you enjoyed!
By far the best video explaining this! well done!!!!
Much appreciated! Took a long time to put together. Glad it was helpful!
Thanks do much!!!
Glad you enjoyed!
Thats was a great description of how it works and what it's doing
Appreciate it! I’m a visual learner so hoping it was helpful to others!
@@tjsguideservice no doubt it was
I just spoke with Garmin and they said 1 click down is NOT down view. The top being horizontal is down view, and 1 click down is forward mode.
Well I’m sorry the person you spoke with gave you incorrect information. Here is information directly from their channel that clearly shows one click down is down is down view. If you are talking the lvs34, then the top being horizontal is down. The lvs 32 the top being horizontal is down. ua-cam.com/video/J_q9e6gZ8Rk/v-deo.html

That is actually something I rigged up to attach my underwater camera to my Livescope for a summer video. That video is here if you’re interested! ua-cam.com/video/6hA4mC6V11A/v-deo.html
Best angle for shallow water for rainbow?

While you are on the livescope screen it should go in this order: menu-sonar setup-installation-orientation from there you should be able to change it
Thank you sir

Thank man, glad to have ya! You’re doing it the right way! Too many people don’t take the time to learn. Good luck out there!
What kind the Livescope do you like?please.
This is the LVS32, but I now have the LVS34 with the 106sv

I always had mine tilted forward 1 for forward view. Still worked good. I’ll have to switch it this ice season
The livescope is very good at showing a good picture even if it’s not set at exactly the right setting

The starboard side of the pole and the transducer wire should be facing in the front

@@tjsguideservice Thank you very much !
I’m so confused. Garmin just sent me orientation diagrams and it shows that parallel on the top of the transducer is down/rear imaging. 🤷♂️
Hmmm I would have to see the picture to make sure I understand what you are talking about!
@@tjsguideservice what’s an email I can send it to?
@@eabaitco.3273 tjsguiding@gmail.com
So, every time you want to switch the modes, you have to turn the transducer?
Yes and no. You can switch it with the software without turning the transducer, and it will still work, just might not give you as good of a picture. If you want the best picture I would turn the transducer as well.
Perspective mode works great for shallow spring crappies
Awesome! Definitely something I’m looking forward to trying

I only use perspective mode during open water since it's only good 15 feet or less
That’s my only (limited) experience with it as well!

What model transducer are you running?
This video is the lvs32. I have since upgraded to the lvs34

@@joemontello9372 then I think down mode would work okay! You just wouldn’t be able to see side to side very far because the scale is smaller.
