How to Read a Fishfinder - What to Look For (fish finder basics)

[@zacharygraham4097]

Awesome video, as always! However, i see a lot of videos explaining what things are, where the boat is, what hard and soft bottom look like. I personally (and hope others as well) would love an explanation or a schooling on ok... i found that rock with fish on it. Now what? How do i waypoint it and navigate to a close enough casting distance, whats your bait of choice, how many casts or different baits until you give up on said fish, how to orientate yourself so you're casting at the object without livescope. Basically, the next step to this video without giving away all your secrets! Go DAWGS

[@a.b.robinsonjr.4301]

This is a great vid! It’s the best I have seen on bottom contours, structure and actual fish. I found it extremely helpful. Thank you for the great info!

[@zacharment7334]

Awesome info man! I was completely lost today using a fish finder for the first time. I have some confidence using one after watching this! Love the channel thanks!

[@bigc8018]

Great vid, bruh'. I'll watch everyone of these types of video all day, every day.

[@Cody-wit-a-D]

THE JUICE Understanding your graphs!!

[@robertstone3417]

Great presentation for us beginners. Thank you! You can call your series "See and understand what the fish finder sees through my eyes".

[@michaelabramsRV]

Great seeing you at the Boat, Sport, & Travel show! Was watching out for this video - love the material!

[@justinperdue3657]

I love it! i just went from a garmin Striker 4 to a humminbird helix 7 msi g4n, so I've been learning a lot lately. maybe making a video on how to mark waypoints and how to position your kayak to fish them would be nice.

[@terranceleonard68]

Great video I always learn something about fishing when I watch your videos and this video is very helpful to me

[@bryanedmondson1505]

Or 4 Way Fish Waves for the title. Awesome video!

[@twofi5e]

Came here to learn about fish finders...left with a new favorite song. Thanks for putting me onto that absolute banger of a track you used in the intro. I'm not ready to talk about how long I've had it on repeat 😂

[@kevintinsley4158]

Love the video and concept with realtime fish structure.

[@TWC6724]

Love sonar videos! Thanks Gene

[@669scot]

I love this kind of video from you! I run ti2 finders ! So this helps a lot! Call it Tuesday Tips ! 🙂

[@samcrimmii93]

A video in depth showing what surface interference looks like and how to adjust your fishfinder to clear it up. Your videos are great but your set up is spot on. Maybe show more of what your missing on the fishfinder by not having it adjusted right. Also no one ever talks about when your in 12 ft of water and your sonar is only covering what about 10 to 15 ft or less of the bottom, we could be missing a lot, but using side scan is a broader area. Something else that is not talked about is as your pinging down, where are the fish entering the cone front back side etc. I know it is a snap shot but if you want to get on top of them it helps to know what direction they are going. Thanks I love your videos Sam

[@martellheatingandairllcmar6894]

Scanning with the Fluke Master! Love the videos.

[@mesa620]

Love this series of videos you’re creating. Stupid attempt at a name, In Depth (because depth finder). Hoping you’ll cover some of these in future videos. * What is all the interference on 2D? Trolling motor washout? * Explain frequency and when to use which one. * How to tell the difference between fish or bait balls and interference * More in depth on how to tell if something is a stump or brush pile etc * How to tell if something is bait fish or just the bottom like at 16:50.

[@Nate_Cross]

Love the video Gene! I struggle with finding fish with my hds live 7 so it is cool to see how you use yours.

[@aaronboyer2660]

Cool never knew how to read the fish finder! Interesting finding out what things are!

[@crowegg2003]

Awesome video, really needed this information

[@richardgibson899]

Please keep it up, I have watch one training video on fish finders and left me a little confused over what I see on my finder. It sort of help me set it up but what I saw and what it looked like in video did not quiet match up.

[@gregcarbone1105]

This is so great. Thank you Gene!

[@dalereed658]

Thanks gene, just bought a 16ft Alumicraft semi v with a lowrance down imaging. This was very helpful.

[@shanesmith8363]

I love the fishfinder Friday concept. What I would really like to know is what stuff should I way point. I always see thing and it might be an individual thing and never know if I should mark it for a later date. The other thing, I see fish around something non descript. Do I mark that or is it just fish traveling. Hopefully you can answer some questions like that. Keep it up. You have become my fishing mentor!

[@Usedtobesfish]

I like the concept. It's always a bit of a struggle to know what I'm looking at so this helps. Please do some time on natural lakes too. So much content like this is focused on reservoirs with road beds and man made structure.

[@Flukemaster]

I wish we had a natural lake around here but I’ll probably be heading up north in the late summer this year and I’ll do several of these videos while I’m there

[@nuts-n-bolts7849]

Thanks for the educational video. I'm learning. 👍

[@alandrismedia1258]

Been waiting for this video for years ;)

[@JohnLong02245]

Excellent teaching video and a series would be a great idea. I suggest calling it “See what I see” those are your words in the video.

[@ChubChub4000]

Hey Gene, id really like to know your thoughts and opinion on the electronics usage in competitive bass fishing. Please and thank you!

[@Ivegonefishin411]

Hopefully looking to pick your ear on the options I keep seeing on the lowrance reveal 9 that I am looking to pick up.. So...I use a predator PDL for fishing... Never used a fish finder.. trying to understand the maps that would come with the unit and which options I should pick.. I know I should get a triple shot - chip when it comes to lowrance.. but I keep seeing c maps, or in-land map or GPS(purchasing options) I am not sure the best for the options ... I live in upper NY. near Lake Champlain for reference. Thank you for any help with my decision..ty

[@Papa_biggs]

Great video!!! The wonderful world of underwater

[@Greg_Pittman]

I think it's a great series and I would suggest a title like know you're sonar. Thanks Gene

[@williamchoate5466]

Awesome video, how about boat positioning on casting to what your seeing...great job gene

[@stephensturgeon9310]

Absolutely awesome video! If a black background could be rigged up to minimize the reflection, more detail might be evident. As far as a name for this series, maybe something along the lines of “ opening your 3rd eye with fish electronics “

[@Wayne-il8kd]

Great information thanks for sharing looking forward to see more videos on this topic. Also maybe like you said use a pencil . And also an umbrella might help with glare on screen. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge

[@bassundefined]

Can you add what specific setting you use for each view? I have an hds9 and get no where near the clarity you have on yours on my down and side imaging! Thanks!

[@Bamaoutdoors]

Thanks for the video!

[@kayakak77]

Great video, thank you!

[@timcox4123]

Very helpful !

[@charliescustom]

It would be great to have a video on marking a waypoint with fish on it. Then navigate back to the waypoint and set up to fish it. I think utube has a couple of videos on this but not in a kayak. As u know a kayak has its advantages and disadvantages. Thanks for the info u share !!!! It is much appreciated!!!!

[@kenbennett1962]

Thank you for teaching this I like to learn

[@gbouley1]

Thanks Gene great video. Fish finders for dummies. I read a lotion books with that title. For Dummies "" wouldn't insult me. I don't have side scan and it good to see the possibilities.

[@jobsearch5871]

looking at your fish finder lets me know I need a new one . I have a hook 2 in the 12" screen that is about 5 years old. I bought a new triple shot transducer for it but still dont get the detail you are showing here .

[@mr.chadwick1049]

Maybe this is already in the works but I'm curious if you can compare si and di low frequency vs hi frequency over the same imagine? This is a great knowledge transfer on how to read electronics. Thank you

[@chuckmiller7286]

Hey Gene, are you gonna do any guide trips this spring?

[@MrBdogg317]

This is awesome thank you so much

[@Thehungryfisherman897]

My biggest problem is figuring out what is actually fish. Just found your channel looking for how to read a fish finder . Thanks for the great video.

[@chasevanover]

Love it. How’s the swimbait game going?

[@markrainone6831]

My transducer has a pin hole on it is that normal? Will it hurt anything?

[@raygissendanner1476]

It was a great video but I still don't know how you can tell what is what on some of it the rock the trees and the creek I can see may if I had one to use it might be able to read it thank you the information

[@charleshoodmanhood7874]

I just down in Cedartown. I would to share my Badass yak. Does your site don’t accept pictures

[@josephsorbello3943]

What kind of fish finder and transducer do you have on the kayak? I’m doing some research to get one for my hobie

[@Flukemaster]

Lowrance HDS 10 Pro

[@georgia2thaheart]

Is this live scope or just fish finding?​@@Flukemaster

[@dannybrown8422]

Good video. How about calling it ( Looking beyond the surface ) just a thought.

[@allenfowler1794]

Hey Gene. Great video. Hey man what happened to Friday night live? Always looked forward to Friday nights. Miss the chats.

[@autofox5.067]

Thank you for this video! I have purchased a used bass boat and I cant catch crap! 😂 my son and I end up using a can of worms and just pound the bank because I cant read the fish finder. My boat is blue so instead of a bass boat I just call it the bluegill!

[@smarttowel1173]

I need some help figuring out how to connect all the electrical pieces together

[@KennyDavis-o4o]

Gene, I was having a hard time following why images went left to right when you would turn. I am a complete novice hence why I watch. When you said you were turning 90 degrees left, it helped by knowing what you were actually doing. Still asking myself how the hell that looks like anything in particular . As for a name, for people like me....Fish Findin' for Dummies. I mean it, I am lost as an easter egg. I watch a lot of your stuff and have gone from telling people if I had to fish to eat, I would starve to now I am catching more and more. So thank you.

[@GorillaMiller]

How can you tell hard bottom from soft?

[@mikefurness1598]

Just simply "Fish Finder Fishing" as opposed to 'forward facing fishing' ... just a play on "FFF" current nomenclature.🙃 OH ... Great video!

[@waxhawcreek1717]

Were those fish on the traditional box?

[@stevensmith7853]

Awesome idea! Thank you for sharing... "Forward Facing Fridays" j/k 🤣

[@Dorks.Gone.Fishing]

I don't understand how you can know how far to turn to go directly over the rocks and trees without marking it on side scan
