Then it is up to you to convince them to strike.
    Hi
    You think a 10" would have been better or are you talking bigger still?

    Thanks

    Hi
    Do you regret not getting a bigger screen?
    I don't know what to get.
    Thanks

    I shoot docks and with livescope don't fish docks that don't hold fish. You may find them but sometimes they won't bite. Livescope may change your mind on many things we though we knew about crappie. If i didn't have one it would be on my list. How you fish is the key, docks laydowns tops structure livescope is great. If you pull or push i am not sure.

    Here's another example where the live scope paid off.... I was fishing for bluegills one day in a 40-acre farm pond. I thought I knew where to fish anytime I went, but a guy had a live scope there one day bass fishing and he said if you are fishing for bluegills... the biggest one's in the lake are in a certain place every time I fish here. I changed where I fish real fast.

    I am thinking more in terms of resolution than screen size. The 9" screen is big enough to see everything but I don't have the resolution of the more expensive units.

    the times I have used one it is pretty nice to see how the fish react . but I honestly can say I knew most of what I saw on it before it showed me .
    now that said would I run one if I had a boat , maybe, maybe not , I don't like to look at graphs very long and typically just use them to find the fish and then after that I concentrate on making them bite .
    one thing for certain though if employed correctly it will up the odds for most crappie fisherman that jig for crappie .
    my 2 cents …..on a side note , I know factually a strike happens before you see it on livescope ….and that's a fact , been there done that .and my buddy saw the exact same thing when he used it ….just an fyi

    I have the PLS with a 93sv+, but I am kinda wanting a bigger screen with more resolution.
