LittleRedFisherman Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I recently upgraded transducers on my Garmin to the new livescope panoptic's. I haven't had time to use it much yet unfortunately but I got it out on the water a couple weeks ago and played with it. This is the only video I took but it seemsto be really impressive so far. I mainly wanted this to help with my Crappie fishing here on the river systems in the back outs where I live, however the day before this I went to current River and went up a slew trying to find some Crappie, but found a big echo on the bottom and vertical jiged it and caught a smallmouth surprisingly… Planning on using it more really soon dan hufferd, terryj1024, Johnsfolly and 1 other 4 There's no such thing, as a bad day fishing!

Seth Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Man, I can think of so many good uses for that! I'm still working on saving for the Ultrex though. If didn't have an elk hunt to pay for this December, I'd have the Ultrex already bought. terryj1024 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drop shotting could be a lot of fun as well. Being able to scan in front of the boat scanning for bass as well. You can even tell by the shape of the fish on the screen.

Crappie would definitely be in trouble. I bet it would be awesome for finding roaming schools of trout on Taneycomo and for pinpointing schools of paddlefish as well IMO.

moguy1973 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Fishing video game. Looks pretty cool to me. -- JimIf people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. -- Doug Larson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothman Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Oh man I want that so bad and this isn’t helping. There is no way I’m gonna drop that kind of cash on a transducer though. Oh but I do so want it. I’ve fished with a guy that uses panoptics and it is saweeet! Between that an an Ultrex, I’m like a kid looking at the sears catalog before Christmas. I want! terryj1024 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
176champion Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 For 2,000 bucks the fish should jump in the boat and then another 2,000 bucks for an Ultrex out of my price range... I know everything about nothing and know nothing about everything! Bruce Philips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
