Your nature to help others and to teach others shows so strongly. I truly believe God will keep you course up throughout your lives and grant you long lives. My you always have fair winds and following seas in your adventures.

[@steveantson9608]

I like all your videos. These under 5 Are both helpful and a nice little extra

[@240LTS]

... Excellent, "Teaching". You didn't rush. You didn't go too fast and cover the button to be pushed with you finger. The pause and added arrows will give the viewer, the one wanting to learn, a chance to see clearly what you are about to do. So many videos, including from some major company, "experts", 😉 go too fast. Yes, they may actually be experts on the subject they are explaining but they are not experts on creating an educational video. I do not have Garmin but NOW I do understand the difference between Heading up and Course up. I use North up when fishing on the trolling motor or on AnchorLock and Heading up when running any distance to another area. One more thing, I just added a Point 1 antenna on the transom near my transducer. My confusion came when using the Heading Up and Course Up extensions (w/o going to a way point) the extensions were always pointing the same direction, one on top of the other. In short, great teaching video!!!!!!! 👍👍

[@richseahag4980]

I only use heading up because radar is always and only heading up as well. Most if not all ny charter captains use north up. That's fine for them but you have to do a mental calculation as your radar targets direction and your boats direction must be figured out to avoid collisions. Gps and radar on heading up it's instantly obvious what's going on.

[@noshirtsnoshoes1277]

Just great content described succinctly and clearly. Thanks!

[@larrymurry3054]

Once again great job explaining to a land lubber. I enjoy all your videos. Thank you

[@rockysouthflorida1707]

Professor EG and Ag... class is in session.. turn off your phone and pay attention! Better Info than a degree from DUMPF University! LOL!

[@visionhomesjetskiadventure2302]

Thank you Emily! Straight forward and easy to understand.

[@cmanferrara]

Love it keep em coming

[@WTFAmerica-wake-up]

Thanks again ladies. I have the same Garmin and don't know exactly how to work it yet. This was very educational. Keep up the good work and keep safe. I hope Adam is ok in California.

[@dstallard5673]

Making waves 5 VLOG's a week at a time!

[@RonTrovatoRealtor]

great info - thanks :)

[@toddfarschon1309]

Great explanation of what the 3 orientation mean. I don't have a radar so North up works most of the time for me. I can see where course up would be useful when travelling to a waypoint. Thanks for the video. You were photo bombed by a dolphin at the end.

[@snooktarponcharters7636]

That was a tarpon not a dolphin! 👌🏼

[@rayward3835]

Very helpful.

[@mastanifoxi2]

So helpful.. i was always worried for theae three options heheh.. thanks a lot

[@marinecustomusa7657]

Please do more videos of how to drive a gps garmin please

[@tootsrr1]

Learning something useful every day now l have to get a decent boat with a Garmin GPS

[@McGyverPilot]

Awesome and simple explanation. Now someone take this one step further: We might be installing our own Garmin GPS. So the Nav Station could be on the Port Wall, towards Aft or even a bit cockeyed. The Radar Device might not be pointed straight ahead either. How does it know which way our Bow is? How do we calibrate it to point precisely to the bow of our boat?

[@GeneralZ-d4p]

What is the name of the great music y’all use for your intro ? Love the content.

[@joee.fuytinck2465]

Ty

[@rocksreels7248]

Would love to see a more in-depth boat navigation video as well

[@dillonr7372]

Educational! Can you do a video explaining how to use a fish finder?

[@tyippolito7764]

Awesome video girls. Can you do a video on how you clean your rods and reels after fishing?

[@bobltexas]

Some may be interested in why you have these options and when may the best situation to use each of them.

[@billanderson1912]

Little off subject but I just watched this show on Netflix called MY OCTOPUS TEACHER!!!! You guys would love it!! Amazing story and underwater photography.

[@fernandoc3596]

I see that you guys fuel up at Sunshine Key. I used to go there when I was a kid and know the fishing area well. You guys must be staying just south of there. Are you going to be doing any charters any time soon?

[@loupagano3503]

Could you address using a standard compass ie Ritchie Compass that comes with many boats if my Garmin goes out???

[@CaptRD]

Out of curiosity on this boat are you relying on gps for directional orientation of the boat or are you using Garmin's Steady Cast heading sensor in conjunction with your mfd?

[@justinsmudde2554]

Thank you!! Ive been trying to figure this out for months lol.

[@MWColemnEngineer]

Nicely done! When are you going to get more gear in your store?

Come to Southern California

[@rxt3001]

I pay for a ton of streaming subscriptions; Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Starz, Cinemax, KZbin TV, CBS, Prime Video, and Disney +. Your guys' channel is better than all of those. Combined.

[@GaleForceTwins]

Wow that is so kind!!! We appreciate that greatly and do not take it lightly 😊🐟 thank you!

[@rockysouthflorida1707]

GFT twins are productive little fish monsters producing VLOG's like rabbits! Powered by Green Juice and lithium batteries! LOL!

[@davidk.7264]

wow

[@shaunphillips321]

North Up Ftw

[@GroundedFlyboy737]

What is your preference and why Amanda/Emily?

[@andyjohnson8297]

So which setting do you find most useful or use the most?

[@calin7017]

Although I believe you expect an answer from GFT, I'll try it for you. North Up is used, mainly, when you'd want to know your position and movement relative to a land mark. Course Up, when you go from one way point to another and you want to know how you drift from your course. Head Up for navigating in traffic and you want to know how other boats move relative to you. Hope it helps.

[@steveantson9608]

Which one do you find yourself using the most?

[@tracyraley4003]

I’m not a sailor but I think I would always use north up.

[@DHKEYWEST1]

How about the days, no GPS, no loran, no auto pilot, no radar? Head SE at a set speed and course and watch for flying fish, weed and color change and 4 hours you should be in the stream. Going home was the problem not exactly knowing how far you trolled all day long. It was a hit and missing going home. Dead reckoning. You had RDF but we never used them. Fishing was so much better in those days. No EPIRBS either

[@tumbleweedoutdoors1776]

If I could choose one KZbin channel to meet it would be gale force twins

[@GaleForceTwins]

That’s so kind!! 😊🐟

[@tumbleweedoutdoors1776]

Gale Force Twins we’ll if you ever come to Southern California I don’t have a boat but I’d be happy to show you some freshwater fishing spots and some beaches

[@tumbleweedoutdoors1776]

Gale Force Twins you can also fish off the piers

[@rockysouthflorida1707]

Post Covid We need to Send the GFT to western Australia to do some fishing with Brodie Moss from YBS! That would be a epic fun Colab for the KZbins! LOL!

[@JonR35]

Holy crap Too many pauses, but good info

[@DirtbikeXpeditions]

Too much time spent in a cockpit for me to do anything but heading up....

[@dugster12]

Poor fish Ripped painfully from their habitat Shameful
