Thanks for following through and making the video. Now I’m going to be one of those guys in a boat playing with his Garmin while on my phone watching a guy in his boat playing with his Garmin. 👍
That was funny 😆. I hope you get it all dialed in here soon. If anything comes up and you got a question just comment or shoot me a email. I’ll get back with ya asap. Hope it works out well for you bud. Fish on 🎣😎
Thanks for going over the settings. I just installed the 93 and your assistance was greatly needed and appreciated.
That’s awesome Jeff. I’m glad I was able to help. Hope all the best 🎣😎
Nice video I’m heading out to the lake now and going to apply these tips on my garmin
Best of luck!
Very happy with it for how I use it (Navigation and depth awareness). simple and accurate.
Just got this unit today and will be doing this. Thanks!!
That’s awesome Justin, best of luck man
I'm a fan now. We get 2 to 3 pound black crappies in our lake on average. Sometime up to 4. This help!
Hey!! Those are huge! I’m glad this helped! Tight lines bud 😎🎣
Paul… just found your channel, and it’s got tons of good info. New subscriber…
This is what I need since I switch to 93sv UHD. Keep the videos coming! Subbed!
Thank you!
Yes!! Been waiting on this Garmin Settings video for far too long!
Your welcome bud. Besides messing with my brightness and contrast just a bit every time I get on the lake I never have to change anything else. Works great for me and hopefully for you. Fish on buddy 🎣😎
@@Paulcatchesemall me too! I’m gonna try these settings this weekend and hopefully get it all dialed in!
Awesome! Let us know how it turned out! 😎🎣
Just got that same unit last Thursday ($699 at BPS Little Rock), for my fishing kayak. Haven't used it yet (rain and wind the last couple of days), but WILL get it out on the water this weekend. Thanks so much for showing us how to search for Crappie (and other fish), and I'll be waiting for more updates from you.
(Heck, maybe I'll see ya out on the lake sometime!).
Yea the wind out here’s been bad. I’m glad the video helped and I hope nothing but the best. If you ever see me out there make sure to say what’s up! Tight lines bud 🎣😎
Wonder why that specific one has been on sale recently…it’s been on sale like all year
Garmin has huge sales all the time and you can’t beat those prices. I think that price is just a sweet spot where everyone can afford it I imagine.
@@Paulcatchesemall I do agree that it’s perfectly affordable for everyone, especially being a 9 inch screen. I just think it’s kinda weird/suspicious that only the 9 inch version is on sale most of the time being roughly $250 off original…I came here for a review on the product cause it was on sale and then I seen M.Smith comment about the price and that got me wondering..
I was reading on social media today some of the BPS have the 106sv on sale now also, Wasn’t a bad price either I believe it was just under 1k if I’m not mistaken.
Just what I wanted
Hope it works out great for ya!
Paul catches em all crappie slayer. Nice job. As soon as I get on the lake again I’m gonna set up my settings like yours. You do have it dialed in.
Hey Crappie Xpress! Thanks man, I spent a lot of time trying to get it right. I hope you get it dialed in and start tearing em up! Thanks for dropping by. Fish on buddy 🎣😎
You need to get the Livescope and get that dialed in.
Man I want it! Hopefully soon man 😄
Thanks for the info! I have a 73SV and I’ll be checking how those settings work out!
Please let me know how they work for you bud. Thanks for dropping by 🎣😎
I definitely will! Hopefully be out tomorrow evening or sometime this week weather permitting
@@RaisedOutdoors Right on 😎🎣
Look like you're enjoying using your unit... It definitely assist in get'n on crappie.....
SK! Man this little graph has put me on so many fish. It’s like a part of the family now 😄. Thanks for dropping by and showing support. 🎣😎
Awesome video
Thanks Alan!
Man this was a great video Buddy!!👌 I definitely learned quite a few things about my Garmin thanks to you👍... Man that dock was loaded😮😮😮😮😮
Fredo! Thanks man, I love this Garmin and it’s treated me great. I’m glad you were able to take a few things from this video. Hope all is well with you and the family bud. Thanks for the support 🎣😎
Oh man!! This is great.very very helpful.i will defintly be using this vide tomorrow.thank you man.
Awesome 🎣😎
I just bought a echomap 73sv,I haven't even got to use it yet but the settings should be the same just a little smaller. I also have a Striker 7sv.
Yea besides the size of the screen all should be the same. 🎣😎
Thanks for going over the settings. I just bought one and this technology is new to me. My old one is about 18 yrs old. I went out yesterday just to practice and I went under a bridge at about 3 to 4 mph and I was still seeing the columns about 150 feet past the bridge. It frustrated me because it it was fish I wouldn’t know where they were or where to fish. My guess is that my speed setting was way off. I do have a question. How far behind the boat does the transducer usually pick up? I need to know where to place my marker. What time of the year was this video taken? Great video by the way. Thanks
It dosent exactly scan behind the boat, there’s just a cone in scans beneath the boat. You can adjust the cone in settings. Tbh I don’t mess with that all that much. Your scroll speed is what can really mess with you. The higher your scroll speed the more accurate of what your seeing on your screen is directly beneath your boat. With a slower speed you will be seeing what’s behind you which can get frustrating. Best way to mess with your settings is to drive by a object that you can see and as you pass it you can see it on your graph. Then you can adjust your speed so you when your directly over a brush pile or stump or whatever structure you’ll know when to throw a marker. At least that’s what I did and it worked out well. Hope this helps.
Thank you! That is a good idea to find an object and go by it to set the speed. It’s all new technology to me but sure hope I can find some crappie before spring using it. Thanks again for the video
I have the same exact unit love it same with me it puts me on fish 100%. and i have the striker 7sv up front if u don't need mapping the striker's are hard to beat as far as the picture ...
I’ve heard great things about the striker. And yea man these units put you on fish all day. Now if they could only tell us when the fish were biting on 🤔😆. Thanks for coming by Slab. Appreciate it bud 🎣😎
Slab, I'm still trying to get my Stryker 7sv dialed in. What are your contrast and brightness settings for clear and murky water?
I've recorded 90% of the lake i fish with my striker sv .it's not hard if you put it on record as soon as you get in the water.
Great video. It helps. Just keep growing channel
Thanks you David! I’m glad the video helped.
Thanks!
THANK YOU!!
great info
Thanks Hal, 🎣😎
Nicer stringer of crappie! Thanks for the tips
Edo! Hope all is well with you man. Thanks for dropping by and showing support. 🎣😎
Hi paul,,,,, Very informative, Thanks.
Is there any easy, safe way to fire up my 93SV at home? My boat, bracket & harness is up Erie, My Garmin unit is here. Geezz I wish that the + - Battery pole 'PINS' weren't so darn small, & close together!??
FYI,,, Just a warning to other GARMIN newbies,,,,
I found out, that At my Erie campground, there's 4-5 other guys with Garmin 93SV units on their boats,, & every one of them had problems with the screen going black while out on the water!
I had a 3-day family walleye outing that was ruined by not being able to see the screen.
The 93 fired up properly, at the dock. The first page was easily able to see, as usual,,, the 'Looking for maps' page, & then the 'I AGREE' page. After that, the whole screen went black to the point that I wasn't able to see anything except very dark lines,,,, even when I shaded the screen.
I Called Garmin tec, waited 3 HOURS for callback, & tec said that I needed to switch the AUTOMATIC contrast controls to 'MANUAL' mode settings! Turns out, that there is some kind of 'GLITCH' going on, between the electric eye & the units brain!! Bright sunny day, & the unit THINKS it's dark outside!
ON MANUAL setting, NOW everything is working just fine,,,, I sure hope it lasts!
I'll use all of your advice, to get this side vision tuned in properly,,,,, Then I'll go get some of those ERIE monster, hump-backed slabs!
THANKS again!
Great info! Thx!
Hope all the best Nathan! Let me know how it works for you. 🎣😎
You look so familiar.😄 Great video man!
Jerry! How you doing man? Hope all is well with you and the fam. I appreciate you dropping by and checking out the channel.
Thank you for the video
You are very welcome Coyote! Hope all the best. Fish on buddy 😎🎣
Thanks so much👍🏾
Thanks for coming by Sirron! 😎🎣
Paul, good day buddy. Could you maybe make a small clip of you actually dropping buoy on brush with that scroll speed? I'm asking because I have the same unit and troll around 1 mph. I was told to set it to scroll speed 2. When side scanning, I am moving about 2.65 mph and I set scroll speed to 8. 8 I know is pretty accurate. However, back to DI. When I mark a pile, if my scroll speed is set too high, I'm dropping too early and I'm off by like 10 ft. Thoughts? And thanks. God bless. I haven't been able to make any videos due to on Nov 11th, I had open heart surgery.
Paul, do you have any idea what causes the picture to be grainy? Like if I zoom in even a little, I can’t make anything out. Your picture is so dang clear. I’m thinking it has to be the transducer..
Could be a few things, getting the gain/sensitivity tuned in right is a big one. Also your lake clarity. The lakes I fish are extremely clean and I believe this video was made in early spring. So there was no leaves/debris in the water. Another thing is speed. I usually and moving around 2.5-4 mph when I’m scanning. Anything over that is too much. And yes the grainy picture could be from how you have it hooked up to a power source. I have a dedicated lithium battery I use for my graphs. But at this time it was hooked up to my cranking battery. Best of luck Craig 🎣😎
great video
Greetings, I’m confused with side view. If it’s set at say 50’ on right is That the view 50’ from boat as I pass the area or is it underneath the boat? I understand clear view being just below. Noticed you only have depth finder only at console as do I. However, I’m not catching much from my boat. Can you clarify. Ty
Ok, so the way it works. If you are in 20’ of water and you have it set on 50’ you are only scanning 30’ to the side. The other 20 account for the depth. So whatever the depth is your at you and minus that off your scanning. Hope this helps. In my mind it sounds better than how I typed it 😂.
Great video Paul...Thanks for the info.. new Sub!
Thanks man, Hopefully it helps. Different lakes of course have different bottoms so the brightness and sensitivity may vary but it’s a easy fix and get dialed in. I knew I recognized your name and picture. I follow you on IG already 😄. Keep wearing them crappie out bud 🎣😎
Great video 👍👍
Thank you!! 🎣😎
Great video. Is there way to a reduce the transducer feedback beam?
If you go into setting you can turn your TVG settings to High and that should clear up some of it. I had that when I first bought mine and I had my Garmin hard wired into the boat. I went and purchased a cable and ran the power directly to the battery and that fixed it. Hope this helps with your question. Best of luck.
Good information buddy 👍
Hey Roger! Thanks man, I appreciate you dropping by and checking out the video. Hope all is well with you bro. Ima have to buy some of them awesome jigs of yours I keep seeing on IG. I appreciate the support 🎣😎
Exactly which unit was this? I know this video is a year old but I see several units with this model info at various price points.
Thank you
Garmin 93sv UHD
I just bought the 93 for a new boat (new for me) I'll pick up in April. I have a Garmin 53 on my current boat. I noticed it looked like you had the 93 on a Ram mount drilled into the inside gunnel of your boat. Is my comment correct? I may be lacking mounting space between the windscreen and the dash. Can you please elaborate on how you mounted?
Not exactly, the ram mount is mounted to the boat itself, not the gunnel. It’s right next to the cup holder. Just used metal screws. Never had an issue whatsoever.
So are you going to use the new UHD2? And how about the new gt56 transducer? I'm personally disgusted with the cheap hummingbird unit that came on my boat console. I plan on using it only as a navigation map.
Awesome! You always have your depth finder so tuned in! Are you able to get the same readings if the water isn’t so clear?
O yea. Only thing I have to adjust is brightness and contrast just a bit and I’m all good. Clear or dirty water, dose not matter ima find those crappie! 😎🎣
Great video!! Where did you get that decal on your live well lid?
Thanks Kid! I got the decal from Lettering.com. Just had to measure the inside of the lid to get the correct size. They got tons of fonts to choose from. Was around 20-25 bucks and came in the mail in a few days. I like it man 🎣😎
The setting did help, I went out and found plenty but they didn’t play nice. Caught a couple nice crappie, missed a few and one 2lb bass.
Went right after this front blew through and they just had lock jaw.
Hey! Im glad it did help. Last time I went out they were all 25-30’ deep. Thanks for getting back and letting me know bud. It’s much appreciated. 😎🎣
@@Paulcatchesemall the ones I was able to get hooked up or to bite were at the top of the stacked crappie at around 15’ and they were hanging closer to the bridge columns than the bigger group that didn’t seem interested. Still really slow
I’ve always been able to find them. But getting them to bite is a different story 😄
I just made a video before cold front. We found them 15-20 ft deep trolling curly tails. ;) How did the troll speed set higher work out? Everything I read says match boat speed.
I run 2.5-3.5 mph when scanning. The high scroll speed works for me and I feel I get the best picture.
Man! Those images are great. I have the gt56 and its not even close to that??
Really? My old friend had the GT56 and his images were definitely crisper than mine.
I wired it into the existing wires on bass tracker classic. I'm wondering if they're not the correct gauge. The original fish finder was a really small garmin striker 4. But yes your images are much better.
@@mikehoward7005 when this video was filmed I also had mine wired into the same. If all possible a dedicated batter for it would be best. I have seen/heard some people have a good amount of feedback from it being directly ran to the boat. They have some in expensive lithium batters on Amazon. About 50$ and you can get 8-10 hours on it. If you’re interested.
Thanks! I have a lot of dewalt batteries. I've seen some people use them dedicated for a fish finder. I've thought about going that route. I definitely would if I new I'd get a picture like you're getting. But mine isn't even close. It's soooo disappointing
@mikehoward7005 have you tired adjusting your settings like I have in the video? Another problem I see from time to time is people have their transducers installed to close to the prop…
Was that a yellow twister tail you were throwing?
The only jig I seen in this video was in the beginning. If I’m not mistaken it’s a Bobby garland baby shad mayfly jig.
Can you please tell me where your transducer is located? Is it closer to the motor? Or more on the outside edge? Thank you. Also when i try to run 455 seems like my picture is real fuzzy! Blurry.
About 14 inches to the right of the prop. Is your picture blury when your idling? Or when your moving with some speed?
@@Paulcatchesemall well.sometimes when idling
But i only use it when i go 4mph or less.just seems like in deeper water it gets blured up and it also it just ain't as clear as it should be in general.i can tell I'm getting allot of prop. Wash as well
@@Paulcatchesemall would there be any reason that you could think of why my 455 would be super bright and when i try to turn it down it don't clear up until the whole screen is almost so dark you can't even see anything. Weird.
Clear up as there’s a lot of interference on the screen? Sometimes it has to do with water conditions. But I have seen issues depending on where the power is hooked up will cause interference. Mine use to have a little interference when I had it hooked up to my cranking battery. Now I have a dedicated lithium battery that I run my graph off of and I haven’t had any issues. Also how fast are you moving? If you have side imaging or 2D or down imaging and your going over I’d say 5-8 mph the screens gonna start getting grainy with all the bubbles from the prop. Sonar works great through water but once it hits them bubbles it’s gets pretty rough. I usually am scanning at speeds anywhere between 3-5 mph for the most part.
@@Paulcatchesemall yes sir.i have mine hooked to a mighty max 15 ah battery all by itself. I honestly thinki have it to far over. It's 4" away from the outside edge. I think I'll scoot it closer to the outboard. And also i leveled it out of the water.i fish by myself and all the weight is on 1 side of my boat therefore it's not level while In the water. It's a small issue. I have it close. Just not 100% like i know it should be. Thank you for your time and you're responses. Stay safe buddy. The ice is getting bad here in Cabot.
i have my ducer mounted on the head of my trolling motor is that the reason my side imaging dosnt work very well?
Sometimes there is interference when it’s hooked up to the trolling motor. Does the picture look clear until you turn the trolling motor on? Also do you have a dedicated battery for the graph?
@@Paulcatchesemall I have the units wires and my black gls10 wires spliced together and ran to a separate battery just dedicated for them
@Halfsac03 having them spliced and wired together could have something to do with it. Also I know a few guys who have their transducer on the trolling motor. When it’s not running the picture is fairly clear, but once they turn it on it’s getting a lot of feedback.
@@Paulcatchesemall okay that makes sense thanks a lot man really enjoy your videos have learned alot for you keep em coming 👍🏻👍🏻
Had my 93sv uhd looking great then instantly went grainy. Any idea what would cause it?
Is it always grainy now? Or when your Trolling motor/ outboard running? Sometimes there can be interference, is it connected to its own dedicated battery? Or cranking etc?
@@Paulcatchesemall grainy all the time now. With or without trolling motor. Doesn’t matter if the main is running or if the boat is off. I have it dedicated to it own battery for power. Wired directly to battery.
have you tried to ajust the gain/brightness at all? sometimes certain lakes id fish id have to just bit by bit just due to water clarity.
You what? You can mute the buttons for the IPilot remote? How?
On the remote go under settings and select sounds if I’m not mistaken…I did it a year ago so it’s been awhile. Hope it works out Alec. Tight lines bud 😎🎣
@@Paulcatchesemall yup I got it. Mute is audio mode 1 and its was on 2. My world has changed. Should be alot more peaceful now without that beeping coming from the trolling motor lol
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Is this with the GT54 transducer?
Yes
Nice boat. What size and motor do you run?
Mercury 60HP 4 Stroke. Gets the job done for me. It’s a good boat and has got me tons of fish. Thanks for dropping by 🎣😎
Also thanks for the settings on the unit I have the same one that's going to help big time
@@chadhampton7896 That’s awesome to hear chad, glad I could help. If you got any questions feel free to drop and comment and I’ll get back with ya asap. Hope you catch em all 🎣😎
I'm plotting how to swap a bang stik for a Garmin echomap 1022 and GT56 transducer for the front of my rig or possibly a 93sv & ducer. At least something that will work with panoptics so I can add it later.
The 1022’s are nice man. In a year or so that’s my plan. Gonna put the 1022 at the dash and move the 93 to the bow where hopefully my live scope will be 😄 🤷🏻♂️. I also said that last year too… smh. The GT56 I need more than anything. With these deep lakes I fish I need something that can stretch out a bit farther. The 54 does the job and then some but the 56 would make it a bit easier. Thanks for the continued support man. 🎣😎
@@Paulcatchesemall yeah I believe I said the same thing last year too and I had the money saved up but right about the time I was ready to get the unit and ducer bought my work fell out.
That's the way it goes I guess.
Hopefully you keep whacking the eater's, it's about to get good 👍🏻
@@rowdybroomstick1216 Yea I Caught good mess today man. I’ll have that video out sometime in a week or so. Hopefully the bite gets even better 😁. Tight lines bud
@@Paulcatchesemall 🎣😎🇺🇲
Need to catch more fish...? IBobber to the rescue
Do you regularly use the Ibobber?
Why do you have to go though so fast everybody can not keep up with setting going so fast what you done is not lotbhelp because you talking and pushing setting so fast have good day
Clay, Pause the video and you can take all the time you need to look at the screen. And you have a good day too!! 🎣😎
God damn!!! Thats allot of crappie in that dock lol
It was loaded!
Great video 👍👍
Thank you! I appreciate your feedback. Best of luck 😎🎣
Thank you for the video
Your welcome! Fish on buddy 😎🎣
Have you ever fished at beaver lake, Arkansas? If not,you can try. Some huge crappies are here.
@@monakundu446 I haven’t made my way out there yet. I’ve heard good things though. Is that a lake you fish regularly? Also I appreciate you dropping by, It’s cool when local guys check drop by. 😎🎣
@@Paulcatchesemall yep! I go there regularly. Beaver is a pretty good lake. Let me know man if you ever want to know some good spots on beaver and it’s tributaries. Thanks for your videos again. I learned a lot from you.
@@monakundu446 We’ll have to keep in touch. I’m wanting to get out and try some different lakes here soon. Again I appreciate you coming by.
