  • I didn't know it at the time but taking the time to go and fix this issue I was having and filming it would help me to win $100,000 at the first event of the year. I did this video to talk about a common issue I have seen with people's FFS setups and the best way to go about and fix it.

    So a piece of tape with lines every 1/8” just above the bracket and a locating mark on the bracket itself can help tremendously with these adjustments. Just having a reference mark of any kind can make fine tuning this system so much easier.

    I remember when the plastic worm, Berkley scent, fluorocarbon, now it forward facing sonar.
    DC thank you for explaining the use of forward facing sonar, you just don't attach it to your trolling motor and go fill a limit! You still have to work on pin pointing the thing, then find the fish, then make them bite!!
    Loved this video!!

    Hey DC Little tip/trick that’ll get you right is stick a level on your trolling motor head on the side and stick something under it to level it and then keep it like that then Stick a level on the side of the transducer and level em to where there the same and it will be perfectly aligned

    That fish obsessed is legit, the only mount I've used that you can see your bait immediately when it hits the water. 1/16 crappie jig at 80 ft out. Only mount out there imo

  • @adzoutnabout8666
    @adzoutnabout8666 4 месяца назад

    Ok, just humour me for a minute.
    I have 2 Lowrance units, so huge fan.
    What I am seeing is with live target, if your fishing rough water with 2ft waves, the live target transducer is lifting and dropping with each wave so much, the picture is next to useless.
    So, if the transducer was mounted on the transom say 1 ft lower than the keel on the gearbox, it would move up and down way less. This would have to involve a revolving unit that works in conjunction with your trolling motor, and the sounder unit would have to compensate for the length of your boat in its on screen information.
    Given our small waterways here in Australia, generally rough conditions and high boat traffic, i really doubt active target would be worth my investment.
    When you find a specific pattern, ie: certain water depth, temperature, structure and bait, then active target is really not essential IMO.
    The art of reading your surroundings and computing the info into your days fishing seems to be extinct.
    I didnt even have a GPS 8 years ago, did it old school.

  • @ronpittman5030

    Active target has 18 deg cone so it's 3d on your screen just because u see it on screen doesn't mean it's center I think only way is to pull a string an square it up

  • @tboy2033
    @tboy2033 4 месяца назад

    It’s not easy getting dialed in on but when you do get ready. But then you still have to get the fish to eat and don’t under shoot the fish or over shoot. Then learning how to spot fish that will eat or not it’s a lot easier said then done.
