[@dangarrett3419]

Thanks for sharing the knowledge Scott. I’d love to see the tournament trails implement rules in regards to fish being foul hooked while catching fish off panoptics though. Just like they do with bed fishing. I see a lot of fish getting foul hooked while using panoptics.

[@codyfinn7649]

Thanks Scott. I just put one on my boat. You are so right that it takes some practice. I'm still learning it. I'm not getting to go as often as I'd like. I fish Rayburn and it is rough a lot of the time. I have mine mounted on the trolling motor. I may be changing that real soon. Because on spot lock it stays turning in the rough water. So it really takes some practice. Keep the videos coming I need all of the help I can get. I just bought a boat in April so your videos are a lot of help.

Should try filming the Garmen with like a three cornered cover so the camera can actually see something

[@jeremyjohnston2583]

You make that look a lot easier than it is lol I have that same setup and haven’t caught one fish yet. Only had it 2 weeks. Hard for me to stay on the brush cause of wind

[@Rubo7]

Same issue I have here. That's why it's better to have it on a pole mount and use spot lock.

[@stevenwoodcock8702]

Even with this system, ya still have to know where to find the fish. If you know where the fish are, then you can find them with the livescope. I've had it 6 months, took me a while to figure it out.

Thank you:)

[@MARKLOCKWOOD2012]

So for those that use these units what is recommended to clean 🧼 to get rid of bugs 🐛 after traveling.or just road grime? You can use what boat brand you like mr. Martin not partial to skeeter’s watching them go by fishing or camping. Up on plain they chine walk not smooth I don’t know if they fixed it. If you watch have a camera boat follow and focus on the hull see if it dips or rocks slightly. Since your using skeeter work with them to fix the hull design to fix the fluttering

[@johnwoods5206]

Scott. I have a Garmin 94sv with cv20 box and high output transducer. I love it I just wish that Garmin would integrate it for minn kota products also so it will work with the power pole and Garmin and minn kota trolling motor

[@MrTravis0306]

Think of the fish the older guys would have caught in back in the day if they had this sort of technology!! Wow... What are your thoughts of the ethical side of fishing with this? I guess you still have to be able to catch them. Similar to anyone can find a bass bedding but can you get her to bite? Ha good vid

Great Vid. I'm curious, how can you tell if they are bass vs. crappie around brush?

[@charliewhite7273]

Been thinking about getting a livescope. My question is how are you able to stop your boat on windy days like you are fishing and adjust the trolling motor for the livescope view? Power poles?

a local guy from LaBelle love your channel was just curious about how the pros choose what boat they fish with is it a sponsor? more of a personal call or both? i know not all who are thinking about a bass boat can afford 100,000 dollar boat. on a personal note good luck in 2021 grew up watching your dad and bill dance as a kid yes im showing my age lol 59 god bless you and yours

[@andrewhensen8638]

Why would you use panoptics over livescope?

[@sirronbailey3109]

Good stuff!!!

[@apofishing7862]

say I am kind off interested in getting the perspective mount and want to know how deep it goes before I spend a hundred bucks for it

[@CaptYale68]

First, Love yours and Hillary’s You Tube. Very entertaining. Question I have about Panoptics live scope I fish mostly in Lake County, do you think I can use this setup in the conditions presented by Harris Chain and Kissimmee Chain ? Most targeted areas are hydrilla flats, shore weeds, pads or docks..

[@dwightnadal6976]

I am installing my panoptix system this weekend, I have used it targeting crappie but look forward to using it for bass also.

[@razorbak6783]

I'm wanting to get into this type of fishing, believe me I need all the help I can get. I have a trolling motor on the front, and it spot locks, wouldn't mounting one of these units be kind of difficult to use if you mounted it on the trolling motor. The motor moves constantly to keep you in position so that would be counterintuitive to using it for forward facing sonor...it will keep moving off of your fish or brush pile that you are wanting to see and cast to. I've seen guys do a separate mount so they don't have that problem and it would seem that by far is a better way to use it. On a calm no wind day I can see how this would work but on a windy day it looks like it would be very frustrating to use for both spot locking and for sighting fish at the same time.

[@vekcorpestsolutions853]

when your fishing at the professional level, you have to keep up with the rest or parish.......at the professional level it's not about fun it's about winning and using everything that is available to do so.

[@MarkOrphan]

Game changing 🤠

[@Tbowie13]

I've really been enjoying watching your videos. I have got to get Panoptics. It would be so beneficial to see how fish are reacting to your bait on specific retrieves and whatnot.

[@qz2026]

I'll wait until Humminbird comes out with something similar. For $1500 all you get is the black box and the transducer. The assumption here is that you also need a higher end Garmin sonar to connect to the black box. So, what do you dump into this $3K??? Maybe for a Pro or guys who wish they were Pros...

[@letsgofishinsc4750]

Hey Scott Which unit do you use for panoptix? It’s not the 8612 is it? Isn’t it smaller? TIA!!

Can you do screen recordings of LiveScope. The camera man footage is awful...not his fault...it's just hard to see. Great info...I never considered using LiveScope in this way. Usually I pull on brush piles to catch crappie. I'll start fishing for bass out of them too.

They never banned trolling motors. If you choose to paddle or cant afford a trolling motor you can still compete, but might not be competitive.

[@SeeLifeBro]

Too much sponsor money to get banned it will never happen on the big levels. .

[@BigMouth380cal]

What good does it do to say "See, there it is. Right there.", if the camera man doesn't get the screen shot on at that moment. The angle of the camera and the untimely zoom to the display made this next to worthless to really learn what you are trying to teach.

[@90Garfield]

Amen , we expect better from the SM crew.

[@BigMouth380cal]

One more thing, a laser pointer would work a whole lot better than a big 'ol finger jabbing at the screen, especially when trying to be accurate with what "blip" is the fish and which one is a stick or bush or lure.

[@outsidewithmike]

That, to me, is not what fishing is all about. Fishing is about the hunt and learning how bass behave. Figuring out where the fish are is almost the entire point. These electronics remove most of the fun, in my opinion. Sure, if you fish for money it's all about the cash, I mean catch. I'd like to see more tournaments without electronics. I don't want to rely on computer programmers to tell me how to fish, that seems seriously backwards to me. Good vid though.
