I don't know if spending a month's salary on a fishfinder was wise
Livescope all the way.....
Why is livescope better?
Like a real-time ultrasound of the lake and fish therein.
If you can see fish moving toward your bait whats it matter if it's a blob or fish looking? Based on videos I'm just not seeing the advantage.
Some of the videos I have seen the detail is so good you can tell the actual fish species. That's amazing to me.
Ya, I guess knowing the species could help with what baits you are going to use, but most of us are targeting something specific anyway.
Ok i need some help I got my ps22 on the ice this weekend fishing for perch and walleyes in sd. I also had my markum lx6 unit in use three holes markum in one with a jig the panoptix in the middle and another jig in the third hole. I seriously found the ps22 cannot compare to the lx6. Fish within 9” of the bottom could not be seen with the ps22. Also i could not see my jig in bottom 9” of water. I adjusted my trails and it helped a bit. Understand i could see fish on my lx6 that would not be visable with the garmin unit. Also my jigs were difficult to see while jigging. Any advice on settings please help. Also when searching side view the bottom is so choppy no way you could see a fish with in 3 foot of the bottom. Please help
I can’t justify spending that much on those units. Way too much to adjust, mess with for me. If fish come on the screen, what makes you think those fish are going to bite? And, if they don’t bite...nice that you can see the direction they’re going in. So, let’s pack up and chase fish that don’t bite. Those units won’t catch you more fish... no more than a vex fl-8 will. I fish with mid level graphs and have out-fished guys with those Garmin units. Even heard of guys selling those units, who are in fact seasoned anglers. Just my opinion...

That part is frustrating, you do end up seeing how many more fish actually come over to check out your lure or just go by without paying any attention.
King perch how did the bass tourneys go fishing against guys using panoptix?
You are right...I am thinking of selling my 7 inch to get the larger 9 inch screen with recording.
So you can watch those fish on a larger screen go right by your bait? Then, push rewind to watch again? Makes sense....Lol!!
I do that back home with popcorn as I relive the highlights of the day. Warm and toasty after a meal of Lakers.
