  • Todays video is all about settings and interpretation of side imaging, down imaging and sonar. Being able to interpret what you are seeing is key to finding and catching fish throughout the season. Your graphs are the most important fish catching tools in your boat when it comes to walleye fishing. In this video I talk about using these 3 tools to find fish as well as talking about my settings to help me catch more walleyes. Walleye fishing is definitely a see fish catch fish scenario. Learn how to read your Humminbird and you will catch more walleyes this season.

    Hummingbird should be paying you for this content. It's the best presentation of their technology I've ever seen. Extremely informative!

      Likely gave him his thousands of dollars worth of fish finder and provided a top quality representative to train him on it. Sponsors are everywhere for a professional like him. Sheeeit, his education to us is very valuable and he gives it to us for free.. Good dude we have here.

    Tom, hope you never get tired of sharing your knowledge and the same things over again and again. Guy’s like me that only get to fish a dozen times a year need the repetitive content.
    Great stuff, always enjoy!!

    Honestly probably the best video I've seen in explaing how/why to use side and down imagine.

    I'm just now going back in time watching you vids and can't stress enough how helpful stuff like this is. 100% Walleye Now if you enjoy catching walleyes

    In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens czcams.com/users/postUgkxeAxH15LxhjGlg5-CRYqjTGTEH0tbY4vk recommend The Hook units will show some lag on button pushes and screen switching. The big ticket item though is maps. If you install a mapping card such as Navionics or the free C-Map Genesis which has a lot of map detail, then moving around the map with the cursor or when running down the lake can lag significantly on the Hook units, but is seamless with the TI units.

    Tom I think everyone would like to see a video of the actual transducer on the back of your boat while in your garage and where you have it mounted, how you have it level, etc

    Tom, you are by far, the most helpful Midwest fisherman! I love when you piece together what you are seeing on graph, with a technique. Keep up the great vids.

    Excellent video, very informative. One thing to remember about side imaging is that when you set it for distance left and right that distance has to include the depth of the water from transducer to bottom as well. So when they say side imaging covers say 125ft, that includes the depth of the water you are in. In 25 ft of water, it would only cover 100ft either side. Side imaging goes straight down to the bottom, then fans out.

    Dude…just bought my first Lund, it’s used 2017 Impact, has 2 hummingbird helix 9s. Down imaging only I believe..your a savage man! Love the videos! Will be utilizing all your teachings! Thank you! Keep posting videos, especially for us beginners!

  • @jasonbroom7147
    @jasonbroom7147 Před 3 lety

    Maybe the best video ever made on using the three different types of sonar. This is the kind of information I have not seen on any other channel and will undoubtedly help a lot of people catch more fish.

  • @davidbuehler3318

    Tom-. Thanks for sharing your awesome knowledge about walleye fishing and use of electronics. I watched this video and hit several famous walleye lakes in MN. I saw images on my Hummingbird Helix just like you showed. Hit the spot lock, pitched a leech on a slip bobber and boom- walleye hooked up! This happened repeatedly until I knew just what to look for!
    This approach improved my walleye fishing immensely.

    Tom, I have been following you now for about 3 weeks. Your information highway is a super 4 laner. Enjoy all your information. Warning to the Lindners, they could be in trouble. You are doing a bang up job on providing a lot of us novice and experienced fisher dudes with better and more informative ways to set up Sonar units, types of bait, Just covering everything under the sun and replying to a lot of requests for info. If I could offer one little bit of info, I know it is very difficult to prevent the shadowing on the electronic units and it's darn difficult to find these areas going the right direction, is it possible to get a shade, umbrella, something which would take the glare off the screens. Thank you very much for all your great effort you put into educating us fisher dudes.

    Don't much comment on videos, but for this one thanks for this , very informative on how to combine the the lot together to get better results when targeting, should work even better using this method with lowrance reveal where they have combined down scan and sonar into an overlay so you don't need to split screen. You can also then triple split screen and use side scan at the same time with plotter if so choose.

  • @stuarthogan7481
    @stuarthogan7481 Před 7 dny

    Great video! I know it's old so ya may know differently now but that rockpile line you marked would have been closer to 134 foot line than the 160 you said it was. With side imaging the depth is subtracted from the read. So with your depth being 13-14 at that oarticular instance you would need to subtract that from your 80 off each side. Figured I'd stop an let ya know so people don't miss understand the readings on these bad boys!
