I just purchased today the garmin 106SV and the livescope LV34, I can hardly wait to use it. Your video is a great help for settings, thank you so much.
Awesome video buddy. I used mine today for the first time, and started with these settings. Very good starting point! Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of Garmin with us. Great information!
Thanks for the info .... pick my 34 up in the morning and I'm hype to play with these settings this weekend ~
It’s my favorite video! Nice work and thanks from all of us for the insight and education.
Great video I’m starting a 106sv and will start with your settings and go from there thanks for the info.
That presentation is on point! Great info as usual!
Great video, I really appreciate you sharing your experience with us.
Thank you, great videos always to the point no clutter nothing missed. I just installed all my stuff every video they missed something should’ve found you sooner thanks. Good luck.
My 34 should be here tomorrow. This is my first livescope.
Thank you for the information.
I just got the 34 I thought this video was a big help thanks for putting it out
Great vid, as usual! Great looking transducer pole and graph mounts!
I have bass pro service installing the same set up you have on my pole and front of boat Garmin 126sv with the live scope Garmin LV 34 have not got it back yet can’t wait to get it
Thank you so much for the settings.
I just got home from the lake and used my livescope for the first time and had my best day large mouth bass fishing ever.
I felt like I was cheating, but that didn't stop me. Lol
Can’t wait for my lvs 34 to come in this wk thanks for the tips!
Don’t apologize dude this helps a lot of people and thank you i will save to my fishing playlists
Thanks for the info! Great video!
Thanks you did a fantastic job of explaining the Garmin's settings.
Thanks! I have an even better one coming out next week, make sure you are subscribed!
Great TED talk! Thanks Man!
Very informative video, thanks for sharing 👏🏾
Great content, can't wait to get mine on the water. So I have mine mounted on fishing specialties pole. You mentioned I won't have to calibrate compass?
No, because you’ll know exactly which way the transducer is pointed based on where your pole is pointed.
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Lots of great info, thanks.
Don't apologize for that video. That was AWESOME information! Great explanation on the settings and why. Each lake has it's variations of conditions, so the settings have to be tweaked to fit the lake. I really appreciate the detail that you put into this video. It truly makes a difference.
I kind of appreciated the apology. Only bc I've never received one before. Hahaha
Very informative Thank you Sir!
Thanks again Brian for a great video.
Great info for a guy whos putting a Garmin boat together. Thanks for the info!
Happy to help!
Thanks for the video and information
Thanks for the great video!
Nice video very good information. I plan on updating to Garmin either 106SV or 126SV. Still on the fence for LVS32 or LVS34. Your video is based on unit 106SV with LVS34 is awesome. My question is this would buy the 106sv and go to the LVS34 or buy 126SV and buy LVS32? Also how is the screen view with polarized glasses and in the sun. That is an issue with me on my current units. Thanks excellent work.....
As much as I like my 12” units I still think the 106 has a crispy perfect picture.
Awesome video
Very informative video, I’d rather watch a video like this than watching someone catching fish. I just got live scope. This will help me get the most out of my unit. Thank you so much.
🙌🏻
Great stuff man. Thanks. Learning mine.
👊🏻
thanks for the great video, really clear and well done explained. May I asking you how do you recording the ECHOMAP screen? Thanks in advance
You can’t screen record on echomaps. Only GPSMap units
@@KansasAnglingExperience thanks for your answer.
i appreciat your help
Do you use the magnets for cables on your system?
The ferrite isn’t needed on the livescope cabling. I do have them on my GT56 transducer cable and power cable.
Awesome vid bro!! I just updated my 126sv ultra to the 20.0 update.. I'm running the lvs 32.. after I updated it the unit will not cut off unless I kill the power to it.. and the screen locks up every 10 mins or so.. didnt know if you have heard of this problem? Any info would be greatly appreciated.. when I call Garmin tech support they tell me to watch youtube for help.. lmao
Not sure bud. Thankfully I am not garmin tech support, just a brand ambassador.
Great video. Would love to see it used in shallow water and and see any changes needed
I just got a new 9" Garmin screen and am waiting on the LVS34 as no one has them in stock. I greatly appreciate you telling us the best settings as I had no idea. Have you made a video on how to best use a Garmin Livescope and what all the reading mean? I'd love to watch that if someone can direct me.
Not sure what you mean.
I sold my 32 a couple months ago andy order will finally ship this week. Been fishing without it which is fine. I just decided to upgrade all, new fish finders, new force trolling motor, and the new livescope. Garmin get me to upgrade all every 3 years I guess...
Welcome to technology! Enjoy!
How are you mounting your transducer to the pole? Is it with a bracket that came with your garmin or did you have to buy it separately?
Both. I use a 0° offset mount sold separately.
Great video...I noticed your Garmin says 13.2 volts. Mine always starts off on 12.2...do you by chance have your screen hooked up to the dewalt 20v?...I have my black box on the dewalt setup. But my screen is powered by one of my trolling motor batteries.
100ah lithium deep cycle runs my two front graphs and black box.
Great job 👍
I’ve been having the 32 since it came out and I’ve gotten quite good with it. I’d say the 34 is better but it’s not super drastic. It’s probably 25-30% better tops. I’ve gotten very similar images with my 32 and a shitty display lol
you should make a video explaining on how to tell the difference in between bass crappie catfish etc...
One thing that I did and am a bit embarrassed that I did it ; I put my mount that is on the medial side of the transducer upside down. I have since corrected it and it has made a big difference. I was greeting interference from the trolling motor
Thanks for taking the time to explain.
Any idea when Seelite is going to restock the 2.0?
Called them and left a message.....no reply
They’ve been dealing with the supply chain issues like most of the fishing industry. You can also send them a text message but I’m sure they are being bombarded as well.
Just checked stock on website. They are back instock.
Thanks for the discount code as well
Good tips!😃👍
What do you think are the benefits of GOSMap 1243xsv over the Echomap 126sv?
Awesome Garmin content as always. You bring it!
Side note: it would be cool to see the chase fish, not boats on a hoodie, along with your logo.
Just something I thought would like to have, along most likely other people too.
I can gladly add a hoodie!
@@KansasAnglingExperience Awesome, and thanks!
@@davidrobidoux9837 just wanted to see how the shirts went over first, I’ll have the hoodies up by morning!
Great info!!!!! Thanks!!!!!
I'm still waiting on my 1222 with the LVS 34 to come in, but I'm exciting watching your video!!!
Great vid
Do you think I can power the forward facing system with my trolling motor batteries and be ok? (I have 2-12V batteries in parallel) or would there be some interference with the graph and transducer?
Would not recommend that.
@@KansasAnglingExperience Thanks
Would love to see some garmin tutorials for the northwest fisheries in Oregon and Washington and the species we target here.
Thanks. I need to put TVG on low or I get the "rays" coming down from top left.
Correct, turning TVG up will make the rays go away.
Thanks
Have you used the lvs12 I just purchased a echo map 106sv
Have not
H E L P! You've done some great video's from catching crappie/fish and finding them, using a fish finder. I need to semi future proof my setup to be, because I'm retired and don't want to upgrade for a long time if possible. My dilemma is I'm new (read never fished freshwater that much) but have decided to get proficient at it. Last Spring I bought the Garmin 93SV with the GT54 transducer. The GT56 was around $500 more but now can be had for $374. Should I upgrade the trans and get another 93SV(Ultra 106 is twice as much) and get the PanOptix LVS34 or splurge for a decent trolling motor with I-Pilot, which doesn't communicate with the Garmin units or a ProNav add-on? Anybody have any suggestions? Congrats on your marriage!
Get whatever you can afford and learn it all, then upgrade. Definitely recommend getting a good trolling motor with spot lock!
@@KansasAnglingExperience Love ya and watching your latest. After a dream last night of getting a trolling motor and putting a transducer on it, poor mans poaching I guess, will upgrade to Live scope later. Its not the easiest thing to envision on a setup if you've never done it... Ps I noticed you still have your "stairs" on your trailer, how do you like it and any wedding pictures? You know the "fun" ones.... LOL, only kidding
I wanted to ask you . If you have trouble catching fish when the corp engineer let water out of the big lakes!! I have little luck on top when they let water out! Just curious?
Not really. It scatters the fish some but I can usually always pin them down and catch them pretty well. Keeps the potlickers I have to deal with everyday scattered too.
Are you using schedule 40 1” pipe? Did you use summits mount.
The link to the pole I use is in the description as I said in the video.
How about the 126sv. is that a good unit for live scope. It is dedicated to Live scope only. Thats all I use it for.
Of course, it’s a great unit 👍🏻
great job The other day jigging at 65 feet with a 34 could not see my jig. could see Kokanee, I have contacted garmin twice for support and can not get a single update.
Garmin support provides great technical support, but settings are best advised by the guys out there using it every day. There are lots of factors at play for deep water jigging.
So if the 34 is on the trolling motor what do you do for AHRS?
Calibrate the compass
awesome
What batteries do you run?
I'm having trouble having my voltage stay over 12.3V for more than 4-5 hours. My Odessesy AGMs are great, but they're getting old.
SeeLite lithium
@@KansasAnglingExperience Thanks, I'll check them out
You stated you do not use AHRS but it shows "On" in the video. What is it and what's it for?
Calibrating the compass and AHRS are two different things, I misspoke on that part. AHRS should be on or on auto.
The Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS) stabilizes Panoptix sonar views on the chartplotter screen even under rough conditions. AHRS also accounts for the transducer's orientation to show the correct sonar view, such as Forward, Down, or Perspective mode.
Ty for Video. I have question I’m looking into purchasing a Garmin Livescope. Mainly for Crappie and Bluegill fishing. I’m looking at the 1022 but would appreciate your input on your thoughts on which to purchase?
I prefer a touchscreen. I think they make a 1022 button/touchscreen model. Not sure. But I love my 1243xsv.
@@KansasAnglingExperience I know the 12” is NICE, but alittle more than I want to spend. Plus I don’t fish everyday or every weekend...
@@jameskarr5550 Echomap 106 Ultra would be my next up. I don’t have experience with a 1022.
@@KansasAnglingExperience you’ll figure it out, quickly with the experience you have.
@@jameskarr5550 no need to, I have a 1243xsv lol
Great vidio
fishing in salt water does that make a difference in yoor settings?
Not sure, never done it
What unit are you running with the LVS34? Really good video
1243xsv
Congratulations you have been selected among our shortlisted winners from our previous giveaway Contact the number above .............................................
Is it because it’s been 2 years or is it because you when a uhd2 or update today. It’s 2024 I bought 2 106sv and some for Jose setting I don’t have on mine?
What do you do about your focus setting?
Set auto fresh or 145.
Do you ever get on somebody's boat and help the dial the live scope and if so what would it cost?
I do offer electronics sessions. 2 hr/$250
Would you go Echo 106SV or GPS 1022 for the better live scope head unit?
Probably 1022 but only if you plan to use it as a dedicated LS unit. If you want to network, I'd recommend an Ultra.
Hey man, I have had my lvs34 for a little over a year now, and I’m from North Dakota, so I mainly ice fish with it. I also did put it on my boat this summer. The problem I have had with it is that in forward mode, the bottom stops at about 50-80 feet usually. My buddy has a Lvs32 and he can see farther than I can. Just wondering what I am doing wrong. Thanks!
Tilt it up a click or two
@@KansasAnglingExperience Tilt the ducer up?
@@adamfichtner6409 correct. Loosen the knob and tilt it up as it’s meant to do.
@@KansasAnglingExperience ok thanks!
Hello sir great video I need the link for the pole
Link is in the description.
Very great videos and information, do you use pole or put in your electric motor,ok have you a photo or your pole, thank to you
Pole mount. Link to the pole I use is in the description
You’re the GOAT!
What should the focus be set at?
Auto fresh is fine 95% of the time. In the event you need to change it 145 is where I adjust it to.
How can I get my hands on a Lvs34,been trying forever
Whoever has them in stock first 🤷🏼♂️
How did you recorded livescope with your phone?
You can screen record from the Helm feature of ActiveCaptain on your phone, but only with GPSMap units.
Do you run a Dewalt 20 volt battery or The batteries in your battery bank. I’ve understood the Dewalt battery would eliminate the ghost tree
I use a 45ah dedicated lithium battery for my front graphs and livescope.
@@KansasAnglingExperience does it not eliminate the ghost tree interference
Btw I do enjoy your channel. I am a subscriber
I have gps 1042 XSV lvs 34
No, lol, adjusting your settings will. Doesn’t matter what battery you use.
I bought the ultra 106sv because you recommended it, 😅
Awesome 👊🏻
"Pitch Angle"...what is it and what's your setting??
Can you up date your graphs with 1 card or do I need multiple cards?
If your graphs are networked you only need one card.
@@KansasAnglingExperience ok that you. Keep up the good stuff man you've helped me out a lot with your videos.
where can i get some sweet capt chairs with arm rest like that !
They recline too 😛
@@KansasAnglingExperience heated and cooled? How about air ride?
@@MGMarineTech nah, can’t be keeping folks too comfortable lol
Does the 1243xsv really put out a much better picture than say the 126sv?
@@xiongthao7888 in my opinion yes. I run an 8616 now and it’s insane.
What setting for bass fishing.
These settings suit all fishing styles.
@@KansasAnglingExperience Thank you🙂. I try the moss color immediately and I like it better than the amber. Thank you for sharing us your valuable thoughts and information. I plan to use the setting in my next tournament 😊.
I am kind of a dummy when it comes to the tech stuff I have a 106sv with a LVS34 I do plan on getting a GPSMAP 1243 but I do wish Garmin would put a manual for dummies in the box to in other words turn it on to the next step and to the next step it would be helpful for a lot of people I know just in my area. I could beg but I won’t but if they would do that wow would it make a difference but being technical folks I don’t know if they can do that. Thank You very much
They won’t, which is why I’ve been making the videos that I do.
Don’t get me wrong you are one of the best I have seen so far but I just thought Garmin just might have an easier manual. Thank you for your knowledge
How deep under water to set transducer at
No less than 8”
@@KansasAnglingExperience Is that to be below the keel or to not pop up in a wave??
@@anthonyprose4965 I mean you can set it as deep as you want but 8” would be the minimum in my opinion.
U said u didn’t use the Ahrs but yet it says it was on so I confused
It’s on, yes. It’s not calibrated, therefore I don’t use it for what it is actually for.
😅 👍🏻👍🏻
Can you see small baits. ....and how far away
Absolutely. I can pitch a small jig out almost 50 ft and still see it. Maybe farther. Not that I'd be pitching small baits that far and need to see it that bad, but it is possible.
There’s a big slab at 15 feet early on
Warning- You have to jump to 11:45 to get to any setting info
Thanks for sharing. I tried mine for the first time yesterday. Awesome awesome tool. Great video. However I would like to suggest leaving out the back ground music, especially on a tutorial video. Just my humble opinion and thanks again. Appreciate your videos.
Two years later this motor is going strong czcams.com/users/postUgkxBZWgzfpS2Jj7JqIHyaSZjyVHNUgCKCBf Just uploaded a video of it after 2 years. We use it probably a dozen days each year on our small raft.-original review- We got this motor the other day and tested it out. I don't have anything to compare it to, but it seems good to me. It has all the features advertised - the motor housing is metal. We will see how it performs longer term and I will revise this review if needed. Some initial observations:- Good thrust, moves our boat around really well- It comes with a circuit breaker but no switch - so there's no way to kill the motor other than yanking the connection off the battery. I installed an inline switch.- The mount bracket is plastic and I worry it might break- There are a number of plastic parts that I worry about, but the most important ones are metal or some kind of composite
Gain 70ish, Color gain 85, color limit 20, noise reject high, ghost off, tvg off. Floodlight color is best!
All personal preference.
Big dog...Dog.... will that transducer work with 106sv?...
Of course
@@KansasAnglingExperience Awesome... thanks for the info.. wonderful video.. I'm glad you did one.... Great information..keep up the amazing work Bro
Don't play poker with those sunglasses🤣
😂 right! Good thing I don’t play cards
Do you anyone that has the LVS34 in stock?
Not off the top of my head
I just bought mine online today 5/22 from Cabelas.
