Gday Marty, Nice vid. Anychance you might be able to do a sounder tutorial, you seem to be able to spot them easy. Ive just bought a sounder. cheers.

[@martytuckerfishing]

Hey Steve, definitely mate. That’s on the to do list for sure. Although, I’ve only ever used Lowrance units so when it comes to settings and so on Lowrance is all I’d talk about because the other units I just don’t know much about. But image interpretation and how to use your sounders to help you catch fish yeah definitely. 👍

Sweet vid mate! Lots of variety of species is cool. Some nice threadies too, good fishing man 🎣🐟🐟

[@martytuckerfishing]

Thanks heaps mate, I’m glad you enjoyed the vid! 👌🙏

[@XBWang-yl2uh]

Nice vids mate, may I ask do you spot lock or keep drifting to have a good image on side scan when targeting the fish? I’m quite curious that you keep watching the sounder and adjust the direction to cast while I found myself hard to get any good image on sidescan using spot lock…thanks heaps for suggestions.

[@martytuckerfishing]

@@XBWang-yl2uh there’s a lot to unpack in that question. I really need to do a specific video on how I use my sounders when I fish, because showing would be 100x better than just explaining. I often move the boat a little bit if I can’t see fish moving past the transducer. If you’re spot locked the image you you get is very dependent on whether the fish are moving or saying still. If you’re spot locked beside fish that aren’t moving they’ll show up as a line but if the fish are moving you may get a better image. When your spot locked any structure will come up as a line because it’s not moving but moving fish may come up as a more circular shape depending on how fast they’re moving. There’s a whole lot of variables that will affect your image and interpreting the images just takes practice.

Hi Marty great thanks for helping me to understand how it works. Keen to watch your next video. Cheers

[@JP-cy4uk]

Are those threads supposed to be good eating?

[@martytuckerfishing]

Yeah mate not bad at all. 👍

Gotta love when a bloke gets spoon fed a few spots then makes a video at them spots and shows the location for a few minutes of fame.

[@martytuckerfishing]

No one showed me these areas I found them on my own. Plus the area doesn’t matter, what matters is whether or not there’s fish there at the time (fish can be anywhere on any given day). The other important thing is whether or not the angler can find the fish and then actually catch them. ✌️

[@MickH60]

Gotta love it when some random in the comments has no idea what he's talking about and makes stupid assumptions.... I don't know how long you've been fishing mate, but there's plenty of things in this guys video's to show he knows what he's doing. I have no idea what drives you salty guys, but it's always funny to see how clueless people like outing themselves in the comments....

[@Adam-p2g4b]

@MickH60 I've fished that river for many years, and I've probably caught more threds in that system then you and old mate combined. It's blokes like this that go to these spots and film the location just to get a few likes and views, wait till you fish a river and a few spots that you can go at any time and usually not have anyone there then have some random utuber make a video at the spot and blast it everywhere so they can get some likes on social media.

[@Adam-p2g4b]

@martytuckerfishing it does matter , some people spend years and alot of time in finding areas, and usually these areas don't get hit hard then blokes decide hey I'll post a video of it for some likes and views, in the next month ull have 200 blokes fishing it then ull be complaining the fish arnt there. Be smart and be like Peter herbst , make Ur videos without background .

[@martytuckerfishing]

@@Adam-p2g4b Adam, 1) It’s no secret that you can catch threadfin there in fact there’s an entire Facebook page dedicated to fishing that system where people say what they caught, where and how. 2) I never stated what river it actually was, you’ve decided to do that in your comment however. 3) If someone can tell the exact location based off a simple generic looking background in a river then they probably know the area fairly well and fish it already. 4) You can catch threads on any bend, deep section or piece of structure in that river and I really don’t have a favourite “spot”. 5) Peter has plenty of times shown backgrounds when fishing different areas. He also has plenty of times expressed his frustration around this very topic. Quote - “If you hide the backgrounds people complain if you show the backgrounds people complain”. “Ruining” people’s “Secret spots” is never our (KZbinrs) intention and it’s something we all in fact take in to account. Note there was an area in that vid where I did hide the background as it was slightly more specific “spot”. I doubt you’ll see any more traffic on these areas because of me and if you know the river really well I’m sure you’ll a heaps of other areas up your sleeve.
