I have spot lock on my Ulterra. I have found it works some time, sometime it don't. Any resistance from the cables and mine cuts off. It is handy when you get 4 or 5 poles tangled up and have to cut and retie. Have not and do not trust it when I unload by myself. Live Scope on the other hand I would think would save you time in fishing in fishless cover. I am probably going to get it but I might have to get some Double Oak Woodford Reserve to get me in the right frame of mind. Looking at the Garmin 1222 and the LVS34. Then a different mount as my trolling motor is mounted in the center of my bow. Looking at the Cornfield Crappie folding double mount.
