    As someone who lives in Virginia, not much walleye. I fish for them exclusively when I take a trip to Canada twice a year and so these videos help cut down time wasted so I can hit the fish and catch them more quickly.
    Thanks

    Another great video. One thing I've heard and read about a little, and experienced this past weekend, is lithium battery voltage and its correlation to overall picture clarity. I run an Amped lithium but its voltage is 13.3V or so and the picture is fine to pretty good most days. But some newer battery models run at 14.4V. This past weekend I saw a clearer picture with the newer battery, running 14.4V. Can you speak to that at all? Thanks.

    • @tjsguideservice
      @tjsguideservice  5 місяців тому +1

      Appreciate that! I have heard people on both sides. Some say voltage makes a huge difference some say it’s all bunk. I can’t speak to it because i have had the 48ah lithium for a long time and I don’t remember what it looked like with a lower voltage battery. It did seem clearer to you though?

    Hi TJ, in ice fishing I can use the old PS22 to tell if the signal is crappy nor not. However in LVS32 so signals are very similar and I cannot tell. Can you make a video to how larger crappie signal looks like on LVS32/34 ? Thanks

    do you like livescope better than mega live?... I have mega live but I don't think the forward-sonar is as good as live scope, but then I'm new to all this.... Down imaging works great but I'm struggling with forward facing sauna on mega live.
