Garmin's NEWEST LIVESCOPE Sonar System test whilst Deep Sea Shark fishing | The Fish Locker

- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- When I bought my new boat last year I kitted it out with Garmin electronics. GPS, Echo sounder, VHS and Livecope scanning system. Today I am joined by 2 ambassadors from Garmin to trial their newest version of Livescanning sonar and unit - to see if it could help me to make better videos. This was the first time I had used the equipment so you learn as I do. I decided we would try it out shark fishing.

Garmin has changed the ice fishing world so much that its hard not to find fish with it. Great electronics from them!
Incredible what you can do now isn’t it. 🤯
John, I must say, that live footage from the Garmin is brilliant! The first video of your line dropping in, and the mackies going straight for it was stunning.
It is incredible isn’t it!!!
I think the footage recorded for the garmin is great. Really helps to show us where the fish swim at different depths. Crazy it picks up the sabiki rig and shows the mackerel darting towards it. Would love to try this on a carp lake to understand where the carp hang out. Thanks for the great content. It’s great to see your channel grow and grow.
That would be amazing wouldn’t it!!!
What a fantastic video 2 blue sharks tagged and the amazing live screen images from the garmin was fantastic. A great learning session for you
Every days a school day. 😊👍🏻🦈
@@TheFishLocker so true never stop learning
That's a brilliant new piece of kit, I couldn't believe the details on that boat with the pots on at the end, you could see the bow n wheel house and the fish. AMAZING 👏
Incredible wasn’t it
Awesome video mate! That's some fancy tech 😎 Good effort and well done on all you are achieving on the channel! Going from strength to strength 💪
Just trying to keep it current and interesting whilst sticking to the promises we set out with. Simple, honest and original content.
The tech stuff is great. It's the human interaction with nature and the elements that bring me back. 🇺🇸
I was catching big fish before I had any electronics. 😉
Thats a cracking bit of kit that! The definition is unbelievable even at serious depth aswell! Its amazing seeing how the fish react to the sabikis literally the minute they hit the water! Nice couple of blues aswell, they really are a stunning fish! Great job as always! 🎣🎣🎣
Watching the fish react to your lures is incredible isn’t it!!!
@@TheFishLocker its crazy how fast they react, just shows its dog eat dog down there!
Watched most of ur shoreline beach catch and cooks bout couple years back and then stopped, lately i've been watching fishing vids again and saw ur vid pop up... Brother im happy ur still uploading
We haven’t missed a weekly upload in 3 years mate
Done it again John, really interesting, thank you, regards to Hannah, James & the shy one, greetings from Cyprus! 🐟🐟👍👍
Thank you Jacqui, have a wonderful day and take care. 😊👍🏻🦈
Fish Locker Sunday..
Gotta love it..
I do my best. 😊👍🏻
That live time Garmin is what Adventures with Purpose uses to locate cars. Great piece of equipment.
Someone else has mentioned them, I’ll have to give them a look. 👍🏻
That was incredible John. Thank you Garmin for such a wonderful experience! The detail was incredible! I hope you are able to incorporate this technology into 'what you do' John. Fabulous video my friend - as always. My Best wishes to to all the family.
I have got it on loan for a little longer and I will have to work out if I can justify it. But it is incredible.
Mind - BLOWN!
That system is incredible!
Crazy isn’t it!!
Wow, that’s incredible. What an amazing bit of kit. Very jealous!
Thanks mate. 😊👍🏻
JOHN! This new equipment means you can now see your pots! (Especially when they get hung up) that's awesome!
On a flat day you can even see the different parts of the pots frame!!
Great video John ,great to see Nick out...
He’s a good lad isn’t he. 😊👍🏻
That technology is amazing, its really giving good detail these days, its incredible and only going to get better. being able to understand and interpret what you are seeing is where the skill comes in though and you explained it to us very well, great catch on the sharks too, love them blue sharks, very elegant fish. very impressive video John
Thank you very much. 😊👍🏻🦈
Mate that was briliant really enjoyed that. Was great to see in detail what goes on down there. The bit with the sabiki and watching the fish swim towards it. And the wreck at the end. Briliant mate really enjoyed that. Thanks for sharing tight lines 🎣🎣🎣
I thought it was fascinating mate. So much detail in everything!!!
@@TheFishLocker yea mate was awesome amazing what technology can do look forward to seeing more of this In your videos. 🎣🎣
@@l.r.sfishing4011 - At the minute it’s still on loan. I need to decide wether I can use it enough to justify it.
@@TheFishLocker yea i bet they got a nice price tag. Well what ever you do mate your videos will always be top class 🎣🎣🎣
John, considering The Fishlocker is the best and most watchable and entertaining fishing and outdoor channel on the tube you could certainly justify having that piece of kit on your boat. I guess they are not cheap but considering the effort you put in plus showing how good it is I am surprised Garmin dont let you keep it or at least come to some arrangement on price.
Currently it is still on loan. We will see what happens. 😉👍🏻
What will be amazing John is seeing Dolphins and maybe Tuna pass under the boat, they are big lumps so should be spectacular, cant wait to see that 🙂
That is a real pea-souper fog! Just as I get my new sonar set up another one comes out! They have come on amazingly though, the detail you can now see is amazing. Nice video matey.
Absolutely incredible to advances they keep making year on year isn’t it!!!
Superb and kudos for letting the Lady land that shark , these latest Garmins are astonishing ,even showing the wrecks windows ets amazing video John Thank You
Incredible kit isn’t it!!
Bananas on a boat, no Nutella sandwiches for Nick and Zoe to nosh, a bad omen from the start, I'm very surprised a Great White Pointer didn't jump out of the sea and grab you! Seriously though that Garmin looks awesome, it's amazing how technology has progressed these last few years.
Incredible the advancements isn’t it! Yes sadly the bananas had us from the start!!! 🤬🤦🏻♂️
Interesting film. Amazing what technology can do nowadays.
Incredible what is available isn’t it!!
John, you never fail. Needed this on a beautiful Florida morning. Thak you. Hopefully one day our paths will cross.
If they do be sure to stop us and say hello. 👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker I most definitely will.
The nice people from garmin must have enjoyed a day out with you 😊👍🏽
I hope so. It wasn’t the best day at sea but I found it really interesting. 👍🏻
Amazing watching all the different fish being picked up on screen. It will be interesting to watch the footage incorporated into your vids.
Thanks for the upload John.
For now the unit is still on loan, if the weather allows I will do more footage for the videos. 👍🏻
Brilliant film john
Thank you.
No babbling about there products just seeing is believing.
No commercials or bullshit.
Just new product and what it does
👍😀🦈🐟
I tried to make a video as I would want to see it. Simple, straight to the point and honest. 😊
Impressive setup, great to have a couple of experts on board too give all the ins and outs.
Absolutely. That cut down my learning curve with the setup and operation by loads.
An absolute fantastic piece of kit to have aboard, educational video John 👍, Thank you 🤝🇬🇧
Thank you Glynn, glad you enjoyed the video mate. 👍🏻
What a truly amazing piece of equipment, no more fishing where there aren't any fish. Its unbelievable that you can actually see individual fish and watch them taking the bait, they really hone into it don't they? How I wish that we'd had such things back in the 50s and 60s when I did most of my fishing probably over a barron patch of seabed!
That’s it is it, this not only shows you where they are. But absolute where they aren’t!!!
That's a really cool bit of kit
Brilliant isn’t it!!!
Yeah my mate has a boat moored in the Tyne going to send him the video
Excellent show, that new tech is fascinating and definitely adds a new dimension to your videos.👌👍
The only setback is I find myself getting totally distracted by watching the screen haha. It’s like a video game!!!
I thoroughly enjoyed that, John. Thank you.
My pleasure Jeremy. 😊👍🏻
I'm adding "water" along with "boat" as your words that make me smile when you say them.
Haha. Fair enough. 🤣
@@TheFishLocker I mean this in the most loving ways. I was able to visit the UK and enjoyed all the accents among the population. It's fun to hear common everyday words used in daily speech sounding so different.
Nice tech, even i could see what was happening on screen so that is something 😀
Amazing isn’t it!!
Now it all makes sense mate 👍
Thanks for the fantastic video. I find my self glued to your channel.
I am glad that you found the video understandable mate, I always worry that what I’m doing and saying will go over peoples heads.
Absolutely love mine! The phone app allows you to palm routes at home and connects as soon as you get on the boat! Great example of what it does!
This day was really interesting for me and I still feel I have barely scratched the surface of what is possible.
Eh up John and Oh My God, that is a smashing piece of equipment and I'm no fisherman. It really brings what's below the boat into clarity and from there you can cherry pick what line, bait and depth you need to fish.
Really really interesting and again from a non fisherman xxxx
Keep Safe and love to all the family!
It was incredible. I could not believe the detail of it!!
Fascinating video John, if you look at the seal coming up, you can see its tail moving, this is going to make your fishing very interesting 😎🎣
It’s incredible isn’t it the detail you can get!!
Amazing blue sharks John it's nice to see you doing your bit for fish conservation
I always try to do my part. 👍🏻🦈
That is definitely without question John I cannot wait until your next videos are released especially the foraging ones ,as you know autumn is apon us so what is on the the schedule for this season? Regards Ken.
Yet again first class video. Thank you.
My pleasure David. 😊
Fantastic Video John, what a bit of kit 👍 keep them coming please😁
I shall do my best mate. 👍🏻
Great video John you are such a natural in front of the camera 👍👍
Haha. Not sure about that. 🤣
Saw the blue colour when you held it up. Nice
Stunning fish aren’t they. 😊👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker yes like all shark underrated 👍
I've never heard of bananas being unlucky before now. My dad who was from a fishing family knew loads of them and would never allow himself to fall foul of them. Being a young boy at the time I didn't know and was chastised a few times for bringing bad luck. Two that spring to mind was counting how many fish we'd caught before we'd finishing as this apparently ensures you catch no more and the other was to whistle as this whistles up the wind and not good in a small rowing boat a good way out.
Whistling is a BIG one. Haha.
Beautiful fish John, Congrats!
Cheers Robert. 😊👍🏻🦈
Superb vid John. Its hard trying to keep up with the fast moving times. I've already bought a new Garmin fish finder, now i want to change it. Lol 😆. Just keep those awesome videos coming. Tight lines. 👍
Haha. I’m not one to buy the newest flashy thing. I want something practical that I can use for years. Go with the budget you can justify. 😊👍🏻
Awesome kit! Unfortunately i could only use this in the bath lol
Haha
That’s a nice bit of kit. I’m a Garmin man myself
Good choice. 👍🏻
Fantastic bit of kit !
Looking forward to some great images .
Cheers John 👍🏴
Cheers Phil. 😊👍🏻
Awesome piece of kit that bud - game changer for your fishing and hopefully no more blank days 😊
I don’t have blank days anyway. 🤣
Thank you again John and others very interesting video.
My pleasure Keith. 😊👍🏻
Live footage was amazing cheers john loved it 😀 👍
Glad you enjoyed the footage Andrew. 👍🏻
man oh man love it ur living my dream lol i so need to start knocking some stuff of my bucket list including shark fishing love your caring of the creatures an fully explaining bylaws etc so informative thanks muchly mate and defo no bananas :)
Haha. Bananas are a big NO NO on a boat!!
Amazing quality. Such a clear image.
Amazing isn’t it!!!
As an avid sea fishing enthusiast,
John is brilliant and I love every video he posts , great video again this is what I want to do in retirement minus the you tube channel …..😊 keep it up
That is a fine retirement plan Mark. Good luck to you mate. 😊👍🏻🎣
Great video, those sharks are beautiful. Your videos are always very informative.
Thank you very much. 😊👍🏻🦈
It would be cool to see you bringing your pots up
I will do some footage when we have calm weather. 👍🏻
Amazing tech advances helping the future of fishing. Tag and release 👍🏻 cracking video John
Thanks Ian. 😊👍🏻🦈
Impressive gear from Garmin. Often thought previously the gear you use a little over my head. What I've seen in the video gave me an far easier perspective. Can't see any negatives with it, only hope it benefits you.
(No more blanks lol)
Very interesting video, thanks John👍
Haha. What dilemma I have now is to work out wether I can use the systems in enough scenarios to justify the expense. 🤷🏻♂️
@@TheFishLocker pity they can’t give you one over a few month period to try out. Excellent advertising for them, and free😉
Thanks bud, that was really interesting.
Amazing tech there!
Glad you enjoyed the video Richie. 👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker I always do!
You post some great content and it always reminds me of what I used to before becoming disabled. Thanks again
That sonar is amazing, good job the guy with "the fruit" didn't whistle as well !! 👍
I could have lashed them there and then. 🤣🤣🤣
John - When you have the bait cloud suspended just below the boat @ 05:45, I was entranced. We would make a great team as I'm happy just catching bait on Sabiki rigs and watching you do your thing. Tight lines!
Haha. I took Jim out to show him and he said it was almost like watching a video game.
Just brilliant ,technology now a days is just brilliant ,I think you will be catching more and more PB John with that new piece of kit 👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻
The thing I believe this will help with is finding the baitfish super quick and fishing to features.
excellent vid, very informative, always good to see a fresh approach with modern tech, tight lines bro.
Thank you very much, it’s incredible the adnavancements that are being made!!!
Very nice. Almost as good as what I worked on in the Navy. Good definition.
Also, nice editing job.
The advances that are being made in the recreational market are astounding arent they!!
interesting that you should mention the air bubbles, in Norway some skippers will stop you landing a fish until it has expelled all the air, so it can go back nice and easy
I do the same when I am fishing normally. When sharking if you pause too long you sometimes get chomped!! 🤣🦈
Brilliant work guys&girls …😊👍
Thank you very much. 👍🏻👍🏻
John is brilliant video🙂👍
Thank you. 😊👍🏻
Fantastic video John and looks like we will be seeing more fish come on board in the future 👍
Hopefully!!!
That technology is amazing. It's almost like having a camera underwater. Must also surely help with spotting plesiosaurs.
I truly hope it does!!!! James will be thrilled!!
Absolutely fascinating John , when I’m due to upgrade I’ll definitely be looking at this , many thanks again 🎣
My pleasure Cliff. 😊👍🏻
Superb,thanks John
My pleasure. 👍🏻
Great to see the livescope being used in deep water situations, most of the video's I've seen are from bass fishermen in the US in about 12ft lakes,
Haha. Yeah where you can literally see the bottom already. 🤣
The LiveScope Plus has shorter reach but even better target separation.
Agreed.
Another great video. I was into land and seabed mapping, characterization and visualization when I was working on the water. We ended up buying a Garmin system for our boat; It worked excellent for our general need of gps location on charts . We had a separate sonar and radar. What couldn't be easily done back then was dataset integration (Sonar and radar feeds, GIS files, depth, sample grab surveys, satellite derived data, etc.). I was able to cobble together a 3d data exploration "Frankenstein" setup using open source GIS, CAD and file conversion experimental software that we used I'd be very interested in the capabilities for that now.
I must admit, some of that went over my head.
@@TheFishLocker It's basically 3d mapping of data pulled from a bunch of sources.
How good is that footage . I want one now👍
Haha. Pretty incredible isn’t it!!!
@@TheFishLocker I recently bought a hook reveal 9 John but I'm disappointed that I can't get relief shading on it? Have to be nice to the Mrs and see what Santa gets me🤔
Watch Andy's fishing and wild cook, he always takes bananas with him.
Some nice little sharks there, them whiting were really good as well.
The new equipment works really well, it should really help you out when you go to good depths.
It will certainly make finding bait easier. 👍🏻
I have been using Garmin the last few years and must say so far I prefer them over the equivalent competition
Now then Troy, I’ve had a few units over the last few years and finding one that suits is really difficult. Most have far far too many functions and menus. I guess it’s because they make one unit to suit yacht, powerboat and fishing boat. 🤷🏻♂️ Still bloody good aren’t they. 🤣👍🏻
Mad technology and such an asset for boat fishing. I had a fish finder in my kayak but actually didn't personally like it. But that was probably don't to my lack of knowledge. Sold the kayak along with it now.
That’s a big part of it mate. You can have all the kit in the world but if you can’t use it in a way that suits your fishing you might as well not have it. 👍🏻
Good angling sir. Always good to see you upload mate 👍
Thank you 😊👍🏻
Great vid as always John, fascinating bit of tech!
It really is incredible what they can do now isn’t it!!
Nice one interesting to see how the set up works. I was surprised you could see the bait going down for the mackerel. Even the air wow. Nice sharks. Amazing what you can see with that scope.
Cheers.
The detail on it was incredible. I was shocked.
Great informative video again John, The Garmin XR looks to be a total game changer.
( I just need to save up for one to fit in the Charter boat now)
There’s a few different types to suit different uses.
@@TheFishLocker I will seriously have to look into them for next season. 👍
Another stellar video and congratulations on the new gear!
Thanks Pete, it’s just on loan atm, but it’s great gear. 👍🏻
Boys and there toys John 😎, great new piece of tech mate, the enhancement on this unit is incredible, making fishing a doddle 🤣🤣🤣if only eh! But certainly helping identify more of what your traveling over. nice tag and release bud🎣appreciate your efforts 👍🏼👍🏼
Haha. Yes mate. If only!!
Nice! Someone also got a new camera!!
No mate. Same camera as always.
That’s a huge improvement. I don’t even fish myself, but here I am every week watching your videos. So cool to watch. I like cooking full fish over a fire so maybe I need to get a rod. I always see loads on fisherman on the purbeck coast here in Dorset. Is wrasse a good eat? I always see people catching them here when I am out that way camping
Wrasse are edible. But there are much better eating fish. Pollack, Mackerel, Bass, Cod. All great eating fish. 👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker last time I went fishing was 25 years or so ago on a boat off Devon coast catching mackerel. They were delicious.
Think I need to bring a friend that fishes on my next purbeck camp. Let them fish, and I cook 😂👌🏻
Banana's on the boat John , you'll need to set the pagan stones and do a naked rain dance on the deck to wash away the dodgy voodoo mate 😆. Tidy bit of kit ey, looks great getting that kind of clarity on a wreck is a game changer and it was really accurate showing what's about in the various columns. Hope your well pal, all the best to you n your.
I just sacrificed Nick to the sea gods after we did the sign off. 😉👍🏻🤣
Another great video. 😲👍👏
That was amazing. 🫣Everything so clear and, as you said, having someone there to help you learn how it works.👍👍
Some nice fish too. Those sharks were stunning.🦈🦈
Always a good watch.👍
Thanks, take care and stay safe.😷🙊
Thanks mate. 👍🏻🎣🦈
Hi John awesome video thanks I bet you wish you had a sonar that can find where all the crabs and lobsters are lol cheers
Haha. There has to be at least some challenge in the job. 😉🤣🦞🦀
Wow to modern technology John
Incredible isn’t it!!
Amazing John 👌💯❤️
Thanks mate. 👍🏻🎣
Fantastic Vid loved it right through
Glad you enjoyed it John. 😊
What a cool piece of kit, definitely one of the most interesting when I came out for the day. Shame it costs as much as my boat 🤣😅
Haha. It is a very nice piece of kit isn’t it. 😬👍🏻
That was brilliant!
More please!!
lol - thanks all :-)
That’s Craig. 😊👍🏻
A fascinating watch. Loving your efforts, thankyou.
My prayer mate.
@@TheFishLocker I like that even more :)
1:50 wow. Just wow.
I was blown away when I saw that for the first time!!!
