Do you use spot lock? I've built a motorized mount for my livescope transducer to operate independently from my Terrova. I've honestly had more fun building & improving the mount than using the livescope! I fish water with lots of pleasure boaters and the waves can get big for a lake. I struggle knowing exactly where livescope is pointed and rarely able to see my bait/lure if it's anything smaller than an Alabama Rig. I've considered putting on trolling motor just to eliminate uncertainty about where transducer is pointed. This is a simple yet genius idea!
I try not to use spot lock too much with the live, especially on windy days where it moves way too much, if too much wind i like to be se a drift sock and let the boat drift along an area that I want to fish and use the trolling motor like if the scope is on a pole . Much easier to manage and see things. I also like to use it going upwind with the trolling motor so the boat won’t move a much and set the speed so I travel very slow. On days without wind it’s a lot easier! But those are rare here lol. Thanks for your comment!
Easy and simple !
