I'm a Lowrance man. Ghost + HDS Live 12 bow/helm + Live foot FFS on bow with Active Target 1. All NEMA networked. The full system Lowarance features are sweet. On the fly auto pilot routes on ghost powerful feature, heading lock for a long straight run, and the anchor lock with +/-5 ft adjust remote is spot on. CMAP (built in) is killer. Wish the chart (map) had an offset feature for water level like Huminbird, but can live with it. For FFS, the LVS34 is best, but marginal difference overall. Just gotta cast a bit more accurately with Lowrance with the narrower beam. Overall I love Lowrance software and the features. I added a DD26 Active Target motorized shaft. Game changer.

I’m a die hard Garmin guy, I’ve owned both, Garmin hands down! The Lowrance 18 degree cone should be pumping better images for power vs. cone dimensions and Garmin absolutely smoked it!!!

Garmin has always had a better target separation both lvs34 and lvs32 compared to Lowrance. People love Lowrance bc it's more of a plug and play and not so much to mess with. However, for me I'll take garmin as I have no problem messing with settings to always get the job done and the new lvs34 still can be dialed in even more.

There might only be slight differences but if your like me and you did that color limit update and killed your livescope system, you just need something that works. I can barely see a jig from any depth, postion or setting. A whole new bundle is looking good now.

I was considering active target since my graphs are compatible with it. After watching this, not even close, Garmin looks way better to me. Thanks for the side by side comparison video.

Same here.... Thought I was going to get a live sonar for $1600... now its going to be 3.5K for a Garmin setup, but worth it.

So when is Garmin going to come out with their 360 if they had that I think they would b on top. I think Lowrance ghost 360 is kinda a bust because U have to have that trolling motor to use it & if you're in a heavy wind or current that u can't control yourself & run ghost 360 simultaneously. Really good comparison I definitely like these vids! I'm currently saving for a 10" graph. I have no brand loyalty & I'm also a kayak guy. Been fishing pa12 for 7yrs now. Upgraded to PA12 -360 last summer. Never had a graph yet so really thinking hard about what to get!?? At moment my top pics Solix gn3 with mega 360 & echomap ultra 106sv with LVS34. Any recommendations? Who's high end mapping is better?? Lake master s, or LakeVu G3 Ultra/Navionics Vision+?? Appreciate it guys thank

Probably not seeing the lines all the way down on the lvs34 because of the 8 degree angle

How much more longer is the LVS34 vs LVS32?
@fishingmjorn2 жыл бұрын
Lowrance need a wider angle obviously. The difference feels a lot more than only 2 degrees.. more like 10.

Can you guys do a comparison between the mega live an Garmin livescope? Or is mega live just junk and not in the ball park of the other 2 brands???
@kuhadekuvertsuttaa2 жыл бұрын
I have mega live, or had it. I changed to Garmin. My opinion is that there is no enough power on mega live. 15 m is pretty much max forward range and that was not enough for me. Waiting to get my Lvs34

Not interested n a particular brand - just results. I also readily admit that I am not a guy that understands the ends and out of the technology. That said - I can look at images and tell which is clearer. For this video - Garmin wins. Not sure why that is so hard to say. Maybe in the future - Lowrance wins. For this comparison - Garmin with KO. It really is that simple!

Se ve que la distancia del transductor no es la misma en las dos proyecciones, con lo cual, a mayor distancia el cono se abre mas y te coge mas las estructuras. Son imagenes algo engañosas

And Humminbird is sitting on their hands, they can’t even get head units out let alone mega live, so glad I have birds 😂. Honestly is Humminbird going out of business? Can’t get products out but have raised their prices.

Their 360 is different but excellent product to have along with these two setups. I am sure they are working hard on improving their mega live, until then they are making good money on the 360.

Look, you are nice guys. But stop the BS about Lowrance being close. I know you sell both brands so you cannot trash Lowrance, but we can see the videos. It’s not remotely close at all. It is a Swiss army setup…Garmin is the clear must have.

These manufacturers are sucking money out of consumers. You might as well do another video on the new one out also. These things are like cell phones. Only people who have enough sense not to buy these things are women. A wife told my friend once after spending 5-10 thousands of dollars. You shouldn't lose again. She's right. He lost
