I’ve ran mine on the port side with a Fishing Speciaties pole for over two years. Purchased the All Aboard Marine all sync pole starboard mount, because I didn’t want the pole hanging over the side of the boat when the Ultrex is stored. Having said all that, I too have noticed a slight difference in the stitching. Thanks for all the research you do for us!
I switched mine today and tried it works much better on port I was having voids of the bottom and couldn’t see my bait switch today and no voids in bottom and could see my bait again I think there a definite difference thanks for making the videos they are very helpful
Def looks better on port side. Which makes total sense to me. I’ve once had mine on a pole mount with it being in port side. I’ve since have put it on trolling motor and now I’m having I wouldn’t say voids but discoloration like areas that can really make you lose fish. Def will be putting on port side now. Thanks for this.
interesting! I've always used it on starboard side and do notice the lighter return on the bottom. After seeing your comparison it does look like the port side is better. Going to have to switch it up.
From all the guys explanations of the questions ,and showing us what it looks like on screen. Is all good and great.. BUT..... Always a but Right? WOW what a game changer it would be if you had a pointer to point out what your talking about real time. BTW it was another great video!
My question is does Port or Starboard matter for every installation situation? Meaning, is it just to allow the trolling motor to be physically stowed and not damage the transducer? Does it matter once it is in the water for example? The reason I ask is that I have the Cornfield Crappie electric mount so my LS is on it's own shaft 5-6 inches from the TM shaft which is a similar thing that you have. Could we flip ours around if we saw an advantage like in your video? It would technically be on the starboard side of the TM but the Port side of it's independent pole.
Please explain the terminology for us new guys . I have not purchased my Garmin yet and I value you and your subscribers comments because of yall have been there done that . Thanks guys .
My thought is about how the water is impacting the transducer faces. Port side appears to have a cleaner flow to the face whereas the starboard does not have as clean of a flow. Starboard has a blunt surface facing the flow, port does not.
I have always ran mine on the port side until I hit a stump and bent the mount. When I replaced the mount, I put it on the starboard side. The image is not as good as the port side. So I guess I will change it back to the port side. Thanks for the video.
I think one of the advantages of the new LVS34 transducer is the middle element being centered and in front of the other two. It is probably the most important element of the three. Good for Garmin for recognizing this and changing the arrangement to a better design.
I have always had mine on the port side and never tried the starboard side…I agree that it seems to be designed to be mounted on the port side…another great informative video…keep them coming…have a great day at work…
Brother I haven’t moved away from crappie it’s just the. Time of year where the bass are biting and I’m mainly a bass guy. But crappie will be deep soon and that’s when I go after them again
This guy is awesome. He has a way to make point and truly remain humble. Love his video's. Please keep them coming!!!!!!
Thank you so much for watchin. Much appreciated for sure
Can't wait to see your lvs34 videos!
Me too
Thanks for the video!
Would never have thought of something like this.
Good for thought for sure
Have you done more testing since this video was posted? Maybe you have another video out??
Naw I’ve since switched to the 34 so it’s not applicable in the 34
Like your Channel I want the question what is how you get that icon on your screen to show which way you transduces turn

Thank you brither for the confirmation
Good to know, i was about to go to starboarder side of pole.
Thank you
That's some great information, right there!
Thanks for watching Paul

I agree
I just now saw the video and was wondering if you still have a hat for sale. Thanks for taking the time to make the video

Man, thanks for your teaching. You answer a lot of questions that aren’t explained by Garmin.
I appreciate that
I run mine on the port side. I like it better that way.
I agree
Now you have me curious about the perspective mode!!
It should be more than a curiosity. Very useful tool
interesting! I've always used it on starboard side and do notice the lighter return on the bottom. After seeing your comparison it does look like the port side is better. Going to have to switch it up.
Hey that’s the initial testing. More coming
@@The_Garmin_Guru have you done the more testing??
On calibration on a 1242xsv with LVS34 it keep saying that the trans needs to be implode and it is already in the water, any thoughts on this

I do use graphical arrows sometimes bud
I moved mine to the port side so my trolling motor prop would be facing in. I have had issues with it since and plan to swap it back,,, Thanks
Yes sir
Who won the perspective mount? My video cut out at the end. Thanks
That would be you. Send me your address and I’ll get it mailed out

Yes you can bud. I actually flipped mine because I like the port picture better. Great question

I’ll do a video shortly explaining that sir

Man that is awesome input and I never thought about that.

Agreed
I put mine on a cornfield Croppie mount. It’s on a Ulterra on the port side.I get a great picture.
Good info
On the live scanner you said you took the arrow that lights and turned it around? Did it just pop out or did you take the head apart?
It pops out. You have to be careful not to break the little tabs
I was just thinking about how port side would compare to starboard side mounting, then I ran across this video. Nice job!
Glad I could help!
Great videos bud, and thanks a bunch. Still new to all this, I'm now considered a old-timer and been a crappie fisherman all my life.
Here’s an updated video

Mind blown!!
Mine was also
I'm going to try mine on port side Monday.
Give it a shot
I was wondering about that one. I thought it might be the case. I might try switching mine. Thanks!
Tell me your results
Port side appears to be a little better. I switch mines to the port side. Thanks for this video.
I agree brother

Thanks Alf for watching
I’ve always ran port but now I see comparison I agree port for life lol great job
Agreed
I think having cable to the rear is best. Kentucky
Good thinking
Will you be doing a video on mounting the summit mount?
I can do that
Does it make a difference on the lvs34?
I don’t think so
I like the port side better after watching this video. I have switch over to the port side. Thanks for this video.
I agree completely. Let me know how yours turns out
@@The_Garmin_Guru Will do.
Love it guru just don’t wear hats buddy
Hahaha
Great idea! What pole mount are you using?
I’m switching to a live foot soon. More robustly built. Smoother. Better petals
I think your right, port looks a little sharper. Another good one!
I agree
Does the LVS 34 come with the zero mount?
Still waiting on mine but I’m gonna say no. Just. Guess
How do you line up hand with lvs34
Hand?
Thanks man, good information t. ✅✅✅👍
Thank you bud
Guess my question is what does Garmin say 🤔
Not much. 😂
Wow! For sure a difference!
Yes sir
The port side looks to me better
Agreed
Top flat, my choice. Kentucky

@@The_Garmin_Guru im watching either way, but see what u mean. Ky
Great video, thanks for taking the time to test.
Thank you for taking the time to watch
Port side for sure. Great video
I agree
Port looks better
I agree
Great video
Thanks for the visit
I agree I found port side to be a lot better.
Agreed
@@The_Garmin_Guru I also found I get my best picture when mounted to the side of the motor.
Hi Nice to know Thanks for sharing
