I have fished with you in that area of the lake. It was a group from Orange Texas. I enjoy watching your instructional videos. This is valuable to your customers considering purchasing that equipment.
I would like to echo the same as what most of us saw which is very informative and I appreciate this guy sharing his new found technology and the video was great. Aside from not zooming in to see from his view it was cluttered with the on screen info. He had the entire screen to the right of what he was showing us but the whole presentation was cluttered behind the on screen info. Not often does someone share in what others can benefit and for that I say he's the champ, just not a trained expert at video taping. Thanks very much Mr Fenn.
Absolutely EXCELLENT idea regarding the Garmin mount. Great job! Hat's off to Garmin as well for coming up with some incredible technology... it's almost like cheating! Being a guide, I definitely see the need for such a tool, pretty much a necessity with competition and all. I appreciate how you mounted that on the side of the boat giving you 360 ability, very nice! Thanks for the video and explanation.
Greg, country boy you are the epidemy of engineering . that transducer is worthy of a Patton. Garmin should sponsor you full $$$$. Videos are great. Scratching out a living as a guide is hard work bugt you make it look like you truly enjoy it. good luck sir you deserve it.
That brings fish finders to a whole new level. When I first used SI I thought it couldn't get any better than this but obviously I was wrong. Enjoyed the video and the demonstration of the new technology.
Hey Greg, just now got to watch this video at the end of July. You sure had a good video on the Garmin, I'm impressed. I'll have to get with you sometime and see just how that unit works. I'll get my feet back under me and give you a call. Thanks for sharing.
My 78 year old dad I just dragged him through lung cancer. So many doctors. He made it clear of cancer last week. All he wants to do is fish and that cat can catch a fish in a toilet. Thanks again. I may look you up next time in TX.
wow that is an awesome DIY project right there!!!!!😱😱👍👍😁😁🎣🎣 Thank you very much for this idea Sir!!!!!!!!....This was an awesome video my friend!!!!!!!👍👍👍😁😁😁
Love watching you Guide if I'm ever in Texas I will definitely go out with ya I'm going to get me a garmin live scope after watching this video thanks for recording
Well done Greg excellent job on the video and all by your self with out annoying music most put out there on You Tube You did fantastic of real time ,,,,live and play by play action I would go fishing with you and know it would be a great day Fish On
Hi Greg: FANTASTIC IDEA on Manufacturing your Transducer to a Flexible Mount. It works Great on the Pontoon Boat. CREATIVE Mind of a Dedicated Crappie Fisherman. Enjoy your Future Brother.
Very nice!! Really like your transducer mount! The Garmin Panoptix is awesome System. Bit pricey for a recreational fisherman like me, though I'd love to have something like that.. enjoy your videos. Thank you
Awesome! Instructional, it would be good to zoom the range to 20 or 30 ft out as other's have said. I have the 93sv and will have the transducer for x-mas. can't wait!
I like that mount. If you are in shallow water say 10-15' deep how far can you see with the live scope? Thinking about using this for anchored catfishing.
I always enjoy your videos, and the design you made for the transducer mount 90 degree stow and deployment. I hope you don't mind a suggestion - I watched this video on my 17" laptop in full screen mode, but could not recognize or distinguish your bait movement or the crappie take the bait, as the Panoptix screen was still only about about 1.5 inch or so in size in full screen mode. Maybe next time, a closer view would work for us. Thank you for the effort you put into your videos.
I looked a little bit and it may be deeper in the comments but do you have a video about the mount you made? I’m looking to do something similar and yours looks like a great set up.
Great idea for that mount. I'm trying to get my dad set up with a spot lock trolling motor and a finder on his pontoon. Did you go with 24v or 36? What shaft length? Thanks!
I went with 24 volt. However, I have 4 batteries hooked up in series to give me plenty of power, but will last all day long even in the wind. Shaft length on the trolling motor needs to be 60". Thanks for watching!
I got one couple weeks ago. Haven’t got opportunity to use it much. Garmin 93sv new out of box didn’t have latest software to support livescope. Caused me lots of trouble being away from home. Makes you wonder if they might make them illegal watching it work.
Raymond Posey... I want to buy this system... If I buy the Garmin ECHOMAP™ Plus 93sv With CV52HW-TM Transducerat at 999.99 and the Panoptix LiveScope™ System at 1499.99 is there any thing more I need to buy to use this system?
Great job and it seems you are having fun to. I'm sold on the livescope, what gar in unit are you using with it? God bless you and I hope your guide service does well.
I think the tube ended up 66" and it's 1 1/4". I think I used 2" pvc couplings as collars. Just a bunch of brain storming, trying this and that. I'm the type of guy that goes into Lowe's or Tractor Supply, and walk around looking for things that I can use for what I'm trying to build, not what they were intended for. Thanks for watching
@@jlwilson1988 The tube is metal. It's light electrical conduit you can buy at Lowe's in 10' sections. You can use different materials to make it work. For example, the OD (outside diameter) of the 1 1/4" conduit is exactly what the ID (inside diameter) of a 2" pvc coupling is. I actually glued a 2"x2"x1/2" pvc tee at the top of the conduit. That allow me to run the transducer cable out the top, but also glue a 6" 1/2" pipe with a cap on it that I use to turn the transducer to desired location. I glued a 2" coupling on the bottom of the conduit so the transducer cable wouldn't get damaged.
Great video and good job commentating. I can't wait to get one of those. I am amazed how good your trolling motor keeps you next to the bridge. Does being under the bridge ever affect the accuracy?
If you're going to make videos showing the screen and what to look for and show us your bait and line... At least zoom in with your video camera so we can see it on the screen... Other than not seeing anything but you and your equipment and boat... It was a Great Video... But next time Zoom in on the live scope screen please....
you should have netted that fish, I don't know how it works but you could have had a lake or evan state record fish caught on ultra light gear lol but you are already famous in my book lol
The transducer is $1499.00. I just picked up that same Garmin unit for $599 at bps this week on sale. Good video but would have like to seen the screen better. Keep up the good work.

thanks buddy from toledo bend God bless you
Greg, I wouldn't need you to catch crappie, but I would pay to just hang out with you. Great video. Nice presentation. Nice man.
I like you talked about your dad. That was great.

Forgot about this fine video until I ordered the Garmin LiveScope then panicked. Thx to Crappie.com others remembered. Dennis on Lake Austin.
Thanks for watching!
This is flat out good stuff.
Thanks for watching!
Like your transducer mount :)
Hey Mr Greg I have a Parton boat with a live scope. I need to no where did you get your stick for your transducer n how did you you mount it?
Great video keep them comin
Thanks for watching!
Very cool. You better copyright the mount. Someone is going to mass market that and make a killing.
Very nice!! Really like your transducer mount! The Garmin Panoptix is awesome System. Bit pricey for a recreational fisherman like me, though I'd love to have something like that.. enjoy your videos. Thank you

Great video my man.
Thanks for watching!
Well i got today. Ups just deliverd it. Cant wait to get out there and try it.
love it great video Greg
mount looks good im going to use this like you did thank you sir for the video
Thanks for watching!
Catfish looked about 20 lbs. to me but then I wasn't there either. lol
great video
Thanks for watching!
Awesome! Instructional, it would be good to zoom the range to 20 or 30 ft out as other's have said. I have the 93sv and will have the transducer for x-mas. can't wait!
Thanks for watching!
Do you have echomap uhd 93sv ?
Great job man.
Hugs and blesses from Brasil.
Thanks for watching!
Greg...Where did you mount the black sonar box? that goes with the live scope system. thanks!
There a pretty big compartment in the console in front of the caption's chair. I put it in there.
Thanks for watching!
This damn thing is unbelievable 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
You caught that fish I lost!! :-)
Thanks for watching!
I like that mount. If you are in shallow water say 10-15' deep how far can you see with the live scope? Thinking about using this for anchored catfishing.
Around 80 feet. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!
How did you Caller the 1 1/4 tubbing
Good rod and STRING. 6lb held good for that kind of pulling.
nice job sir !!!!
Thanks for watching!
Hey Greg, what did you mean about and how did you collar the jack tube to the 1 1/4" pvc?
Good Job 👍👌
Thanks for watching!
I just subscribed today, you were using lowrance on the first video I saw, scrolling around,now I see you are using Garmin Panoptix!!
thanks so much sir!

Wow! #6 line and that cat, you should have weighed her - you may have had a State record for line and rod size for that lake.
Great video. Cornfield Crappie.com makes a mount for the livescope to go on an ulterra.

That’s all you need.
Crazy,! I need this now, crap!
Great Video, can you tell me what is the length of the Slab Daddy pole.
10' - Thanks for Watching!
Nice! :)
Great job and it seems you are having fun to. I'm sold on the livescope, what gar in unit are you using with it? God bless you and I hope your guide service does well.
Garmin Echomap Plus 93SV
Thanks for watching!
Will the electrical conduit pole rust? Any reason why you did not use PVC?
It won't rust. I just wanted something a little more rigid. I think PVC would be okay, but if I did I would use Schedule 80 PVC. Thanks for watching!
wow, best video that is so convincing. I have an Xi5 and was wondering about the mount. Is that PVC 1.5" pipe or metal?
1.5" metal electrical conduit. Thanks for watching!
Looks like fun I need one
Thanks for watching!
can you tell me how to hook up the panoptix livescope to my fish finder. not a lot of instruction on that to me.
Good job.
Thanks for watching!
That’s amazing!
Does your panoptix show true distance? My panoptix seems to show like 40' when its only 20'
Don't understand that. Maybe your transducer is pointing down or up one click. Mine is right on. Thanks for watching!
Where did u get the transducer mount from? I don’t want to put mine on trolling motor for spot lock purposes
Made it myself. Locking device is modified trailer jack. Thanks for watching!
I would love to bring my two grand boys how much do you charge sir
What is the length and size of the tube holding the transducer, material makeup of the tube ?? Great video...
I think the tube ended up 66" and it's 1 1/4". I think I used 2" pvc couplings as collars. Just a bunch of brain

I assume the plug at the end of the transducer is small enough in diameter to fit through the 1 1/4" pipe. It looks quite big.
Yes, it slides through easily.
How much is your graph and transducer?
My grandpa used to say that he don’t believe anything he hears and only half of what he sees
Which transducer do u have for ur Panoptix
The Transducer Mounting brand is ?
Homemade. Thanks for watching!
Great video and good job commentating. I can't wait to get one of those. I am amazed how good your trolling motor keeps you next to the bridge. Does being under the bridge ever affect the accuracy?
No, it does pretty good. However, I do have to be careful in high wind. Thanks for watching!
Hello, Where are you bay mount for Panoptix? Or handmade ?
Thanks for watching! It's something I made. You can view it better at the end of this video:
ua-cam.com/video/NCP34lnTqwI/v-deo.html
What materials do you need to make that homemade mount?
I don't have a list. I just found a way to insert 1 1/4" electrical conduit inside a trailer jack.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you sir .. how much was everything all said and done im gettn me one.. after watchin your video.
About $2300. Thanks for watching!
What transducer are you using?
Garmin Panoptix Livescope
Would have been nice to zoom in on the plotter.

Hey Greg. Any chance you could build me a mount like yours for my pontoon boat?
Just don't have the time. Sorry. Thanks for watching!

Is that a Garmin ECHOMap plus 93sv
Just sub... I would love to get one later...nice catch..

PEOPLE NEVER SATISFYED 🖕UM, HOW DO THAT WORK ON SIDE IMAGES,MY FRIEND
LiveScope is a different transducer from Sideview.... Education is the key to the whole thing.
about a 25 pound at most catfish
I agree more like a sub 20 lb fish
thanks
