I think you need to buy some more gear! 😀. Did you find somewhere that has enough ice to support an ATV, or are you taking them just in case?  Good luck and stay safe!

Good luck! I cannot wait for my favorite lakes in wyoming to freeze  safe enough to fish. I got tons of new gear to test out and more days off this year.

Ex Colorado native Living elsewhere now, what lakes do you ice fish walleye for? The only great walleye I would hook up on flackery out of Pueblo res. Most of all the other lakes in CO carry a 15” min for slot and I know Pueblo and one other I believe carry a 18” min ... just interested because when I was ice fishing there I was hitting 11mile, skags, terryal and antero. I was close to CS so I traveled in that region.

Also, from what I remember snow sleds and atvs access for lakes was slim or by handicap permitting? The only place I know you could drag a sled out was blue Mesa.
Be well and DO Good Work!

What model chartplotter are you using with your Livescope?  Are you using one of Garmin's kits, or do you have info on mods for making the unit portable for ice fishing?  Just curious...

Cool, those are big screens. I saw the livescope is compatible with 7” chartplotters, too.  I wonder how it would look on the smaller screens!  ??? I might set something up in the near future.

if you spend money on livescope is 9” and bigger is better so you can share the screen with your kids,, 7 inch is a little small,, but not much more different with the cost

Here is a list of Garmin monitors that you can plug a livescope into

"Panoptix LiveScope is compatible with Garmin's GPSMAP 8400/8600 multifunction displays, GPSMAP 7400/7600, GPSMAP 10X2/12X2, GPSMAP 10X2/12X2xsv Touch and GPSMAP 7X2/9X2 series chartplotters, and the ECHOMAP Plus 7Xcv/7Xsv/9Xsv chartplotter/sonar combo series."

The livescope is not compatible with the echomap chirp 7/9 series (what I have on my boat), but the regular panoptix will plug into my 73cv so im gonna get the panoptix ice bundle to plug my 73cv monitor into

Sweet, Tim!  That'll be sweet.  For me, I was thinking about the UHD 73cv Ice bundle, which comes with the monitor, bag, and a nice ice ducer.  And eventually upgrade it with the livescope system.  In the meantime, I'll have a new flasher/graph to use this season.
