Finally got on the water with the new electronics and it didn't disappoint!

Now i understand what all the hype is about, pretty unbelievable when you can pin point these fish then put the "livescope" on em.

Did most of my damage on 1 deep dock and a gravel roll off, fish were simply stacked to no end.

Looking forward to getting back out tomorrow morning.

Dixie jet and the little swimmer did most of the damage with a few hair jig fish.

Very nice!

Nicely done. Reports like this make me second guess whether I should be looking at new electronics - I keep telling myself NOOOO but feel myself caving in a little at a time.

If I fished tablerock a lot I think I would get it.   I’ve never been able to get a good bite going on the rock.   It’s like finding a needle in a haystack to me.  I’ve had good trips on LOZ as a comparison.

You crushed them!  Did you find them with side scan and then use live scope to pick them off?  I don’t have lives scope and curious how much it made a difference on a wad of fish you run across like that on side scan.

Previously i just had the base maps and 2D sonar.

It got the job done but upgrading to this new to me system is a game changer.

Scanned them first to get me in the general area then used the Active Target to pinpoint the fish for each cast.

It almost seems like cheating but hey i like a bow in my rod.

This spot seems to hold them very consistently but with the Active Target it took all the guessing out of where to cast, not fan casting, as you were throwing to a group of fish each time.

Went and fished some tree tops this morning and it was pretty neat seeing them dart out of a tree for the swim bait or the spoon.

This morning was rinse and repeat with a good mix of spots and largemouth.

Going out in the morning to give it one last go before the work week.......

This is as good as i could get it after a few morning of tinkering, I think it will do for now!

You crushed them, good for you. Take the grid off and it will clear it up even further.

I will take the grid off next time out, thanks for the info!
