    Default I think I'm in a Love / Hate Relationship!


    Got a chance to fish with a friend who has the live scope, I've only been crappie fishing twice with the scope on board. Probably going to have to give in and get me one. Fact is theirs nothing out there that will put me on fish quicker and more accurate than the scope that I know of.

    With my down image and side image when I find fish I'm still left trying to figure out exactly where they are in relation to where I'm at. With the scope whatever direction it's pointing you just fish in that direction to the distance and depth it shows on the monitor, if that doesn't produce then you go either a little to the left or a little to the right, that's it.

    Nothing has been easier for me to figure out than this, I kinda hate it in a way cause I love my Huminbird.

    Love my birds also ! I personally could see using the live scope to stay competitive in tournaments. But marking fish with bouy markers and weigh points works good for me!

    I totally agree SK but that's been a problem for me for awhile now "time on water", which is one thing my buddy pointed out when your limited on time you can quickly eliminate non-productive cover and move on to find fish.

    The best place for Live Scope ( for me )would be nice is when fishing weeds as my SI, Di, and 2D just does not work in weeds as you may not exactly see the fish but movements going on in the weeds. When confronted with acres of weeds is where I think Live Scope might shine instead of having to fish those acres of weeds, and finding the spot on the spot. My SI, waypoints and my Ulterra with I-Pilot Link takes care of open and semi weedless fishing. Use SI to find fish drop waypoint hit go to spotlock and start fishing.

    Real time and distance is what makes them worth it to me.

    It is just another tool. I do not mind spending my kids inheritance to help me find my favorite elusive fish. They do not mind either cause they told me so.
