Great Video. Curious where the mount for the 360 antenna that pivots (the black with the threaded knobs on the sides, not the aluminum) is from or what its name is. Thanks again for some ideas for my setup.
@@riverrat92 yes! the MEGA Live uses the Ethernet port and the MEGA 360 uses the transducer port. I'm not running any other Transducers other than those two. I can run my 360 is MEGA SI and I'll use MEGA Live for down imaging if I ever need it.
Yeah I have the Lowrance, it's tricky. Try scout mode, I was using it in the eddies, Thursday I could see a big log where fish were under. Couple of things though, the mount that comes with the Lowerance sucks. Fish Obsessed makes the best mount for it. Just have to think of the beam cone that it shoots out. The lowrance shoots a beam about 60 by 18 degrees. I believe in 4 ft of water you don't want to be on forward mode. You want to maximize your beam. So you want the top of the beam to be shooting horizontal to the surface. i need my transducer 9 degrees from level. Scout mode you should be able to see the whole water column in the shallow water and see way farther right and left. I have more testing but I like it so far.
Gotta give you props, that is a slick setup. Good work, really like that custom 360 mount on the back so you can stow and deploy it 👍
That's all Tray Leach. I gave the "I want this list" and he made it happen!
That's really cool ! Thanks for sharing Jake !
Thanks for watching!
That’s a sweet setup Jake.😎🔥

It was a DIY job
Nice setup!
Thanks!
So you are able to have more than 1 transducer plugged into the solix unit? The 360 and live transducer.

Is tray planning on selling that 360 mount in the future?
Probably not, this was a special request item from me.
I have been thinking about putting the 360 on for a while now.
it's worth it
It’s pretty cool Jake! Good luck with it! Hey Jake where did you get those stickers for your registration numbers? I would like to get some, thanks
It was from boat decals or something, Jeff did a video on it a while back
Love the content, the volume is pretty low for us old folks.
I'll try to fix that! Thank you for the info

I've used both brands in both modes. Garmin more extensively than Lowrance. With MEGA 360, I won't need landscape mode.
I don't believe thats live is it?
@@JakeHarshman
It's not, no. But If I truly need it, MEGA Live Landscape Mode is just one click away.
Its nice for sure. How does it look moving?

@@robswoodsandcustomsawmilli9940 the live sonar? I haven't paid close enough attention to it while moving
