This is a GREAT video. I am 70 years old and I don't do will trying to experiment with electronics all by myself. This saved me years of fiddling around. I don't have that many left. Thank you for making this video. I am glad you won the tournament.
I'm also 70 years old and just bought my very first fish finder. So, I'm scouring videos before taking it to the lake, because like you said, we don't have a lot of time left to waste!
The SI demo with the light bulb and paper was the best demo I have EVER seen and I have watched a lot on SI. Your explanation of the water column and how far away objects actually are is awesome. For the first time I actually get it. Thanks!!
I don’t have Livescope, but have watched multiple Garmin side-scanning videos and this by far is the best. You are very articulate and explain very well what we are seeing, which we all appreciate. Keep up the great work and good luck fishing. Obviously with your skill set you don’t need as much luck as the rest of us.
This was probably the best overview on how to interpret side-scan I've come across so far. So many of the vids just go over the individual unit settings, but neglect to explain how to actually tell different things apart, be it structure, bottom types, or fish. Thanks for putting together a solid tutorial on actually understanding what's what on the screen and correlating it to the downscan. Got my first graph on the way and look forward to having a head start when I hopefully begin using it this spring.
Excellent video. I'm 67 and have only been bass fishing for a few years, and I never get enough time on the water. Your videos are very helpful. Thanks!
Best side scan video I've seen...graphics were outstanding at the beginning to really show how things lay out in 3-D. Only suggestion is you say you have to "subtract" off the depth...that is not really correct. The object's distance is exactly what it says on the unit if you draw a line from the transducer to the object. You can think of this as the hypotenuse of a right triangle (one leg of the right angle is a line dropping from transducer to the bottom, the other right angle side is from the bottom directly under the boat moving to the side (right or left) along the bottom. You do not subtract the depth of the right angle side going from the boat to the bottom from the distance along the bottom's right angle side...instead you measure the hypotenuse to get the distance. So the object is closer than it appears if you just consider distance right/left of boat, but it is not as close as you would calculate if you subtract the depth off of the range. Your model shows this relationship well, but you should not say to subtract off the bottom depth as that will put the distance too close to the boat (you could use geometry to actually calculate it...this is called slant-range correction). Anyhow...all that does not diminish how outstanding this video is...thanks!
After a while , you will just be able to be good at guesstimating I’m sure. This video fed me some great info. Looking into getting a side imaging graph. I have a gps map up front for livesvope, but to have lake mapping and side imaging at the wheel could be an efficient combo. With that being said, you guys know your stuff. What’s the best , “bang for your buck,” side imaging graph for lake mapping as well. Thank you .
so if I'm understanding you correctly, the rock is about 25' on the hypotenuse. so 25*25 is 625. He's in about 13' of water so 13*13 is is 169. So 625-169=456 which taking the sq. root gives 21.35 foot?
@@nathanprotz7468 That is true, but only if the fish is setting on/near the bottom. In the real world it can be a lot more complicated. If you have to get this as precise as possible, you can sometimes measure the distance from the bright return of the actual fish and its shadow (assuming you see both) and do math from there to estimate elevation above bottom). The easiest option is to just remember that the distance of the object is a straight-line distance from your transducer...which means it is closer to your boat than that same distance directly right or left because some of the distance is "consumed" if the straight line is angled down into the water rather than straight across the surface. In reality, distance in your example would be somewhere between 25' from the boat (if the fish were very near the surface) and 21.35' from the boat (if fish were very near the bottom). That should be close enough to "gestimate" where the fish is (and you probably cannot cast or circle your boat back to the spot with more accuracy than +/- 2-3' anyhow😃. It's probably just easiest to remember the fish is probably a few feet closer than it looked and call it good enough.
Definitely the best understanding of side imaging I've seen. I inherited a boat, fixed it up and have a Helix 7 SI coming tomorrow and I've never owned a fish finder but know I think I have some basic understanding so TY. 🙏
The best video I've seen explaining side imaging, thank you. I've just spent a ton of money on electronics to up my game (meet my boys expectations of catching fish). I don't fish bass specifically, but feel with a little time on the water and practice, I will have the process mastered. Thank you again.
You're and incredible teacher and it is evident you put a great deal of thought into the model and examples. As a proud fishing nerd, after 2 minutes, I paused the video, got my camera and computer. I took 13 photos of your examples, all the time taking notes. This is the most educational and concise presentation I've seen. I'm hoping you'll do more. Additionally, as an entrepreneur, I hope you perceive the financial opportunity you have.. Reach out to me if I can help, Again, thank you and I'm viewing the 360 next.
One thing that was not mentioned regarding side imaging, the dark spot directly below the transducer/hull and the distance from your boat is directly correlated to the depth of the water you are in. To overcome this problem mark the brush, rock or structure on the screen with a waypoint/GPS then go back over the waypoint and dial in the location precisely with a waypoint edit.
This enlighten me a lot. For some reason I didn’t put together the major benefit of the split screen until this. I understand it so much more because of the cross referencing. I kinda understood the professionals having multiple graphs but now it really makes more sense. I have a Garmin and plan on setting my split screens up very soon. Also the side imaging with the “ white dots “ enlighten me even more. That part I didn’t know and I realize how far behind I am in the game but at least I know now. Thanks dude!
G'day mate. I've actually paused the video to ask this question. It was the only thing in my 4 hours of You Tube and Dr Google that wasn't explained and you did so perfectly. The distance "fold up' of the black space makes perfect sense now and thank you for stopping my brain coming out of my ears. The distance adjustment was something I thought of in other tutorials but never explained. My question is : Why don't the manufacturers factor this in and make it so much less confusing???? Love this vid. Cheers
At 4:29 it is stated that the Black space in side imagine is the space Directly under the boat/depth of water. Then at 7:09 the example screen shows bait fish (and bridge piling) in the black area (supposedly directly Under the boat) but they show up different between Left and Right. My brain is hurting... they can't be directly under the boat and be different Left to Right in the black area. And therefor I don't think its a straight subtraction of the black area (isn't Trigonometry required) to get actual distance to a Bolder showing on the Right side of the screen.... and Trig + interpretation required for indications in the black area?
Have to compliment you on the thorough job you did in this video and in others that you do. This video alone had 3 tips I hadn't thought about And never heard on other videos trying to show side scan
Young man you absolutely killed this video. In fact maybe the best I've saw. Love seeing the the attention and education back on traditional,, SI and DI. Excellent show sir!
Please know that the analytics for this video are going to be messed up cause I’m gonna watch this about 50 more times!!! AWSOME video. More More More!!!
Great job on the video. I would like to call attention to one thing though: the Biggest Mistake. Because sonar always goes in a straight line, when something shows up at 50 feet, it REALLY IS 50 feet away from the transducer. However, 50' away does NOT mean 50' to the side. But it's not as simple as subtracting the depth either. To know the exact horizontal distance, you need some trigonometry. The depth is one leg, the horizontal distance is the other leg, and the sonar distance is the hypotenuse. The good news is that as long as the target is more than two times the water depth, the adjustment to find the true horizontal distance is small. The key to remember is that it will always be closer than reported, but the amount closer depends on water depth and sonar distance to the target. Shallow water and large sonar distance, little correction is needed. When the sonar distance is barely more than the water depth, the target is practically under the boat.
Best side imaging video on the internet hands down. GREAT work. I am a very experienced user and fully understand side imaging and still learned a few things.
I kayak and only have DI I find it pretty hard to get a clear picture of what's really going on underwater. I am still trying to get the most out of only having Di. cant wait to get a boat, great video by the way very easy to follow and you do a great job trying to help the viewer understand what it really looks like underwater.
I originally wanted a 10" solix fory kayak, but end of last winter I was able to pick up a 10" Garmin echomap Ultra 106sv for 758+ tax after sales & bass pro club points. Then I added steady cast heading sensor & Lvs34 system late January. Between sales, coupon codes BP club points which is cash in store. I ended up paying 2350+ tax for all of that! The 10" Solix or 10" hds pro is running 2799.99 by themselves. Been extremely happy with my set up so far. Its actually my first fishing electronics. In my opinion hummingbird still has best side imaging but Garmin's GT56 & new hd3n1 are so close, its not worth price difference for what I paid. Garmin definitely has edge on LS. Lowrance doesn't really have an edge with anything anymore. Their bad to almost non-existent customer support is what completely ruled them out for me.
Garmin owner but came to learn SI better. Probably the most comprehensive video on learning Side Imaging on RUclips. You would think the manufacturers of these electronics would make videos like this...
Home run!!! Mic drop! I couldn't ask for a more detailed explanation for using my Solix. Now, an on-the-water followup would be icing on the cake showing how you position your boat and lure selection. Thanks.
I am totally amazed at your presentation on side imagining. It’s light years from the Hummingbird Super 60 flasher I used way back when. I just wanted to say thank you for explaining it all. Very educational
Just got a Tracker Pro 170 and I’m looking to upgrade the little stock lowrance to one of these humminbirds. This video helped me to pull the trigger. Thanks for the awesome explanation!
Ur videos have been helping me alot im new to the electronics game with fishing i really appreciate u taking the time to break this stuff down for us to learn
Great explanations and very educational! I Love when I can watch a video and actually learn something from it that I can go and duplicate on the water. Let us know if that was actually a boat under the bridge. 👍🏻🎣🇺🇸
ok WOW nice run thanks for sharing. Its a need to watch. Great job did not know much now I do, wish I had extra money but just bought my boat and Humminbird. tapped out but your vid is fantastic. Thank you
Your a awesome individual for making this video!!! No wonder your a tournament winner!!! Really good job on the video, I totally understand the evuipment now
Really good breakdown on understanding what your looking at. Very well done with dumbing it down with the paper an light illustration brought me to new light on underneath me
The difference between side scan and ffs is you are not looking at the screen when your line is actually in the water. It also still preserves the “unknown” aspect that makes fishing fun. I would allow it for 10% of tournaments for diversity.
Very helpful. Obviously it takes time to train the eye. I’ve had little success with side imaging other than spotting brush, stumps etc. I see now the fish aren’t going to “jump out” of the screen and a lot of what we are looking for, even structure, is likely to be much smaller than expected.
I have a Garmin with side view and still learning. This was a great information video My lake has most that you describe. I did see the bluegill beds with fish couple weeks ago. Haven't seen the roads, stumps and other fish so far. Maybe I'll see some crappy finally this weekend.
This video is absolutely awesome. It was exactly what I was looking for. You did a perfect job explaining everything as simple as possible. Thank you very much 👍
Without a doubt, the best and most informative idea on using my Bird I have EVER watched 😎 Thanks so much Sir for sharing. I will be re-watching this one. Great job of teaching 👊😎
Thanks for the video, maybe there is a setting in humminbird that does not stop the SI when setting a waypoint? It is very inconvenient when SI stops at this time. The boat continues to move and while we set one point, we lose a lot of information. For lowrance SI echo sounders, it does not stop at this moment, but is recorded in the device’s memory and then scrolls quickly...
I like the way you have your screen split. I am upgrading the electronics on my bass boat this spring from two 5-inch units (console and bow) to two 12-inch Helix units (MSI+ at console and MDI+ with 360 at the bow). Could you tell me what the percentage splits are for each of three views you had in this video? Thank you for all of the great videos and knowledge that you share with us.
Man, this video is awesome! Great job Tyler! I have never seen an explanation of side imaging like this but it is perfect for guys like me who just cant picture it well. Great job!
Thank you! I believe I was lost in all the complexities of these devices. This tutorial zoomed right in on how and what I was supposed to be seeing!! .....Except I'm not seeing those little white dots/specs. My only question; Is there any way to adjust the side imaging screen to bring out those little "white specs" in front of the bass shadows or am I having trouble seeing them because I'm looking at a video on a desk top computer?
Great video. Would love a follow-up that walks thru how to then line up with that waypoint to actually fish what you found, quickly/efficiently...especially without any sort of ffs.
I don't usually comment on videos, but this was very well done. Thanks for the explanations and great examples. I am fairly new to kayak fishing with a side imaging transducer and does really take a trained eye to pick up on what you're actually looking at. Learned a few things from this. Well done. I did have one question: in one section of the video, your downscan was picking up some fish that were also shown what I assumed to be pretty far off the side of your boat where I wouldn't have expected a "down" scan to see them. What kind of cone/radius/angle do downscans typically see?
Hi. Thank you for the time and effort you have put into this video. From 37.00 - 38.10, you refer to the DS image of the school of Bass. Can I ask why the logs/stumps were not indicated on this DS image? I am keen to know how this school of bass was isolated from all other things like those stumps, etc.. Thank you Cameron
This is a GREAT video. I am 70 years old and I don't do will trying to experiment with electronics all by myself. This saved me years of fiddling around. I don't have that many left. Thank you for making this video. I am glad you won the tournament.

Yes! I’ve been looking for animations like this

I don't even own a boat let alone any electronics yet found this presentation quite interesting. Nicely done T.
Thanks for watching anyways! I appreciate it
Me too
To use side imaging you dont have to have a boat. These days kayaks are also good options to put a sonar on them.
Hands down, one of the best tutorials on interpreting electronics. Thank you. 🙏
As someone who doesn’t have much interest in bass fishing, this is a fantastic, no nonsense, no speculation channel. Great video.
Best side imaging video I’ve watched. Description and information was broken down perfectly.

I have had side imaging for years, I was missing a ton of information, your video was very helpful, thanks for taking the time.
Best explanation of what's under the boat while side scanning thar I've seen on the internet. Especially the depth/range differential. 1👍

The best side imaging education I have watched. Thank you!!
Just got a Tracker Pro 170 and I’m looking to upgrade the little stock lowrance to one of these humminbirds. This video helped me to pull the trigger. Thanks for the awesome explanation!
Best side imaging video I have watched,yet, nice job explaining and showing it.
Great job of explaining what you see when using side-imaging. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Wow, quality content. The absolute best tutorial I've came across to help me understand what I'm seeing. Thank you!
This is a truly fantastic explanation. Nicely done!
Thank you very much
You can adjust your image mapping to your speed you like to search in your boat. That will keep a clearer picture.
Best video that has ever been posted to RUclips. Ty you are king!
One of the best side imaging review that I have seen. Nice work.
Saved to "Fishing Technique" playlist. Thanks man
Ur videos have been helping me alot im new to the electronics game with fishing i really appreciate u taking the time to break this stuff down for us to learn
This is the best video tutorial about side imaging, thanks for sharing...
Thanks for this simplified explanation of the use of side imaging.
Great explanations and very educational! I Love when I can watch a video and actually learn something from it that I can go and duplicate on the water. Let us know if that was actually a boat under the bridge. 👍🏻🎣🇺🇸
Funny that I didn’t even see that when I took the screen shot. Just after reviewing the photo. I’ll definitely have to check it out
ok WOW nice run thanks for sharing. Its a need to watch. Great job did not know much now I do, wish I had extra money but just bought my boat and Humminbird. tapped out but your vid is fantastic. Thank you
Your a awesome individual for making this video!!! No wonder your a tournament winner!!! Really good job on the video, I totally understand the evuipment now
This is the best SI video I've seen.
Really good breakdown on understanding what your looking at. Very well done with dumbing it down with the paper an light illustration brought me to new light on underneath me
You should give classes for hummingbird! Kayak para-angler here with a helix 5. Best class man will need to support. Nothing but gems!!
This is the best video out there in regards to understanding SI.
Well done Tyler great info for newbie,s and great refresher for an old guy lol. That boat looked like a small sailboat. Keep up the great vids.
The difference between side scan and ffs is you are not looking at the screen when your line is actually in the water. It also still preserves the “unknown” aspect that makes fishing fun.
I would allow it for 10% of tournaments for diversity.
Man this is the best explanation ive ever seen on side imaging! Thanks for this!!
This is by far the best Side imaging explanation video I have ever seen. Thank you so much and I just subscribe lol
Best video I’ve found on Side Imaging. Great teaching video!
Very helpful. Obviously it takes time to train the eye. I’ve had little success with side imaging other than spotting brush, stumps etc. I see now the fish aren’t going to “jump out” of the screen and a lot of what we are looking for, even structure, is likely to be much smaller than expected.
You're the best at explaining electronics. Keep doing you buddy!! You kick ass
Really great video brother I understood this breakdown of sid imaging better then any other one I've watched...
Wow by far the best video I have seen. Thanks for taking the time to create this...
This was amazing!!!! You really pit it all out there.... wow! This is a course you could sell, dude..
I have a Garmin with side view and still learning. This was a great information video My lake has most that you describe. I did see the bluegill beds with fish couple weeks ago. Haven't seen the roads, stumps and other fish so far. Maybe I'll see some crappy finally this weekend.
This video is absolutely awesome.
It was exactly what I was looking for.
You did a perfect job explaining everything as simple as possible. Thank you very much 👍
Without a doubt, the best and most informative idea on using my Bird I have EVER watched 😎 Thanks so much Sir for sharing. I will be re-watching this one. Great job of teaching 👊😎
Well done. Very good illustration and instructions I understand more of what’s I’m looking at. Thank you!
Im in the process of buying a boat now and this was definitely some need to know information. Awesome videos, keep the content coming.
Great refresher for me. I always pick up something new that will help. Awesome stuff!
Thanks Ty. What a great help, always looking to get better with my electronics .Thanks again and God bless you and your family!!!
First Video of yours I have come across. Outstanding!
This was awesome. I'm a bank angler but still found this fascinating. Now I can watch RUclips and not be confused lol
Thanks for the video, maybe there is a setting in humminbird that does not stop the SI when setting a waypoint? It is very inconvenient when SI stops at this time. The boat continues to move and while we set one point, we lose a lot of information. For lowrance SI echo sounders, it does not stop at this moment, but is recorded in the device’s memory and then scrolls quickly...
After watching numerous side scan videos finally the best video out there. Thank you for this effort. New subscriber here.
Thanks , great detale. I just bought a side scan unit. Great video that will helpme find fish.
I like the way you have your screen split. I am upgrading the electronics on my bass boat this spring from two 5-inch units (console and bow) to two 12-inch Helix units (MSI+ at console and MDI+ with 360 at the bow). Could you tell me what the percentage splits are for each of three views you had in this video? Thank you for all of the great videos and knowledge that you share with us.
Wow - this is amazing and demystifies a lot. Very much appreciated.
Excellent presentation well explained and good graphics as well
Awesome Video. thank you !! makes SI so much easier to understand
EXCELLENT video I'll definitely be utilizing mine more now, thanks bro
Great video. I'm new to fishing from a boat and have a hook reveal. I've learned alot from your video. Thanks.
Hands down the best Video I've seen.
Bass up top on a small rise is always ready to catch , way we do it on Tennessee river down here. Pretty simple stuff.
Thanks so much Tyler...by far the best content available...great detail!
Absolutely great! I had to save this one.
This was the best info on side imaging I've every seen thank you
Man, this video is awesome! Great job Tyler! I have never seen an explanation of side imaging like this but it is perfect for guys like me who just cant picture it well. Great job!
Glad that it helped. Thank you for watching
Very informative and clearly explained. Thank you for your time
Great video! I am still learning to use my side scan and this was VERY helpful at understanding what I’m seeing.
That was the best of all u tube to date with side images
Thank you!
I believe I was lost in all the complexities of these devices.
This tutorial zoomed right in on how and what I was supposed to be seeing!!
.....Except I'm not seeing those little white dots/specs.
My only question; Is there any way to adjust the side imaging screen to bring out those little "white specs" in front of the bass shadows or am I having trouble seeing them because I'm looking at a video on a desk top computer?
Great job brother, best video on the subject matter. Keep up the good work.
Great video. Would love a follow-up that walks thru how to then line up with that waypoint to actually fish what you found, quickly/efficiently...especially without any sort of ffs.
What would you throw at them? A moving bait over them or some kind of a bottom bait?
I don't usually comment on videos, but this was very well done. Thanks for the explanations and great examples. I am fairly new to kayak fishing with a side imaging transducer and does really take a trained eye to pick up on what you're actually looking at. Learned a few things from this. Well done.
I did have one question: in one section of the video, your downscan was picking up some fish that were also shown what I assumed to be pretty far off the side of your boat where I wouldn't have expected a "down" scan to see them. What kind of cone/radius/angle do downscans typically see?
Hi. Thank you for the time and effort you have put into this video.
From 37.00 - 38.10, you refer to the DS image of the school of Bass.
Can I ask why the logs/stumps were not indicated on this DS image?
I am keen to know how this school of bass was isolated from all other things like those stumps, etc..
Thank you
Cameron
