Great video. You are a natural teacher. Thank you!

[@greenpighunter6930]

Yes

[@aaronbrady2623]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Great video

[@dennisedwards8954]

Great criminy! This video, your videos, are of great help do me... And enjoyable. This one, you have hit the nail on the head. As you said at the beginning, you are speaking in a language that this beginner can understand. Thank you.

[@freshlysaltedfishing8500]

The breakdown is amazing on this one

[@AnalogAssassin1]

B...this is AMAZING #factsandinfo that is a game change for SO many anglers. Yet another reason that you are the top pro giving back to the average Joe. Not taking away from others, but seriously brother... THIS is yet another reason why ANYTHIME someone asks me, : if you could fish with ANY pro in the world, who would it be?" My answer is always from the hip, always instant and always the same; B. Lat. Your grind as a man, father and husband has always been an inspiration to me, and I get so much backlash for not choosing Jacob, Scott or others, but I just don't have the fact's about the grind from your 9 to 5's to make your career of choice happen. The dedication you gave to your landscaping job and later business, is just phenomenal. It is really the reason I think you have what you have, you embrace the grind and know that hard work and perfecting perfect technique's is what brings consistent results. Thanks for always doing the best you can for the industry and humanity.

[@taterplain]

Thanks Brian great information very helpful....

[@donaldhaynes6984]

Glad I found your video! Looking forward to viewing all of these and LEARNING! Thank you!

[@johnnyfishbum4765]

Awesome video makes things a lot less complicated for non technical guys like myself. Thanks BLat

[@BrianParkerson]

Brian, please come back with another video explaining how to locate setup on,, and fish your waypoints after you locate them. I have a hard time knowing exactly how to cast and hit the cover that I've saved as a waypoint. Sitting still my chart turns all different directions and it's really time consuming trying to find and actually fish specific targets. I know there must be a better way and I appreciate you explaining in terms we understand... much appreciated and thanks for all you do.... you're one of my favorites!!! 👍

[@Mjones8383]

It's really just as simple as going 360 on the spot and find which way they want it that day, it changes daily sometimes on 1 spot, it can also change multiple times a day

[@kevinh2272]

thanks for the info you just taught me a lot about my graph. great info

[@canadiangemstones7636]

Sweet tech, thanks for the intro!

[@DFox-ud3gx]

Good topic here B LAT

[@DinsmoreOutdoors]

Brian thank you so much for taking the time to make these "how to" videos!! A lot of pros making KZbin videos do it so they can push more of their sponsors product, not really taking the time to teach you anything. Thank you so much for teaching us!

[@johnjohnson5933]

Now that made so much sense!!!

[@craigstevens9734]

Thank you Mr latimer got some good stuff from you. Good luck .

[@DLPfishing]

Great info

[@jsetser001]

When you get to fishing please explain how to position your boat to fish what you found

[@frederickshebester2368]

As always talk to me in a language I can understand. Good down home information.

[@OldMysticFantasist]

All helpful stuff, but for me, 1 thing you said light a big light bulb (an aha moment). At one point you said you backed up over a spot. 🎆🎇✨ Haven't thought to try that & haven't heard anyone mention doing that or seen anyone do it in a vid. Now that I heard you say it, it makes sense that the sonar would work fine going forward or backward. Just have to adjust the mind to understand the image.

[@jerometorrez8789]

Great info bro.

[@bamadondon0495]

Thank you for not being one of those negative guys that complain about money and the silver spoon side of things, I think a lot of us that follow you closely like I do know your story and that you've worked your ass off for everything that you have and it's well deserved. And so therefore you can afford a graph at the wheel and at the trolling motor, but being a realist and just telling people "hey if you don't have it, don't stress it!!" fish with what you got and make the best of your situation is the most positive outlook you can ever give a beginner fisherman or someone starting way behind the eight ball financially if they can only afford one graph. I think that was super cool to tell someone that it's more efficient as a fisherman regardless of where your skill set is to utilize that front graph more than worrying about graphing behind the wheel and worrying about having more than you can afford. That's the reason why I watch your channel is because you're a real dude. You know what they say? Real recognizes reel.. see what I did there.😂🎣 Catch'em up stay safe hope the family is great!

[@mrahob275]

As one of "those guys" who may go too fast for the customer to keep up ... you are spot on as far as the learning process. 2d and charting first !! *Then* side/foward/down hi-res scanning stuff. At least most of y'all don't need to worry about radar as well. Keep up the great stuff !!

[@gmansideas7463]

You are confirming and fine tuning the things I've taught myself on my electronics. 👍🏽 I've got the same approach.

[@zoepoundfishing9030]

Good stuff

[@dfox7777]

This is awesome! Brian i really enjoy your channel because you always take the time to explain the basics in way that's easy to understand. Plus you give examples of your personal experiences. Truly shows how humble you are which makes you extremely personable. Keep up the great work.

[@lil_bootbassin5607]

Thanks for breaking it down to basic terms bro. I am also not technologically inclined...lol

[@12ernie]

Great video! Great info! This is what makes your channel so good! Thanks for making the videos!

[@BrianLatimerFishing]

Thanks for watching

[@StelmachsWorld]

Great video other than your cameraman should’ve filmed the areas where you were talking about the points and stuff at 5:58… also thanks for the clarification at 7:04 because i used to think fishfinders were cheating

[@Gage_Jackson_20]

I have a single graph on my boat in the back. A 7 inch garmin with all the basic mapping, with 2d and 3D sonar. I have a ram mount that I can loosen up and rotate so when I’m driving the boat I have the graph in front of me and when I use the trolling motor I have the graph rotated to the trolling motor so I can see what’s going on. I really recommend this set up starting out because it flat out works!

[@14seantl]

Good stuff. I am definitely not tech savvy and I appreciate these types of tips.

[@kman237]

Thank you man! This was very helpful for someone just getting started and bought my first bass boat.

[@FishOn1]

Good lesson, but please ask your camera man to get a little higher so the steering wheel is not blocking the bottom of the screen.

[@johnemrey9877]

Good information. In the next video could you go over how you fine tune your graph to get the best picture such as sensitivity and contrast? Is there a difference in deeper water as opposed to less than 10 feet?

[@BrianLatimerFishing]

That’s all personal preference. As I mentioned in the video, I don’t change a lot of settings other than color pallete, and modify screen pre-sets. Occasionally I will adjust my transducer frequency in the winter on the bow for fishing vertically. All your settings are situational. It just depends on what you need for the conditions you have on your body of water. There’s no “this setting is clearest” that I can really give you.

[@waynesammyswingle6107]

Hey great video. I need more of this. I stopped fishing for 2 decades and all this stuff has passed me by. Thanks

[@Bruce_Swain]

WoW! I just learned so stuff from BLat AGAIN

[@Revfish86]

Great series, thank you for taking the time to do this!

[@lovinit68]

Fantastic video, Brian. Good stuff👍👍

[@the_mad_swimbaiter455]

This is great! Thank you so much. I'm a new guy with an old boat. Got a fortrex from a buddy. That 2d is all I have lol. I'm working hard and learning. Thanks for these extra reps.

[@TimHaunFishing]

Let's Go. Anything I can learn to get help with my graph is great.

[@tracywilson5736]

great advice for us beginners. I found myself leaning towards maps and 2d first. thanks for the breakdown. Looking forward to more.

[@tomsexton3530]

Thank you, are you using active captain in this video? Thanks!

[@h.m.z.9094]

Hey Brian. What's your take on electronic. Is it creating a gap between the haves and not haves. And where do we draw a line. Even as an entry-level local competitor you see a huge difference. Will it get to the point that it's no longer the angler skills but more the boat and equipment... 32in monitors pin pointing the fish. And electronics bait going to it.. not a dream but again where do we say enough is enough..

[@BrianLatimerFishing]

I’m living my best life boss. I have nothing but a positive perspective to share on the topic.

[@calebdorsey216]

Yes the content we all want and need but no one likes to create! Thank you B Lat!

[@Waldo183]

What kind of sunglasses are those?

[@zidonsmithfishing]

Very informative video needed this ☝️

[@h.m.z.9094]

Also thanks for those points, really appreciate you taking the time to spill the juice

[@johna.9742]

Thank you for this great video. I have been bass fishing for over 20 years and I have watched a lot of videos on the use of sonar, but, I learned more from this one than I have from all the others!!! And I have to say, once again as I have commented numerous times on your videos, dam you grow a great looking beard.

[@MountainMenMilitia]

Yes, perfect content you've created here brotha.

[@TheREELBass_Dad]

😅😂 my hummingbird tdi4 swivels at the console with no graph on the bow. 2d is all you need to make it happen! Great video

Thank you i can't wait for the next one

Excellent video, thanks for all your videos, they help a lot. Best of luck. Dave.

[@134rwa]

This series will help me to know what I'm looking at when I'm a guest aboard someone's Bass Boat.

[@chaseD707]

How do you determine how deep to look and how deep they should be? My lake runs out to 150 200 feet in spots. Should I be looking at the areas where it transitions from shallow to deep?

[@chrisbray3236]

Quality content, BLat. Approaching it from the perspective and wallet of a weekend angler that isnt in the market for a $2k graph. Learn how the us the $200 unit first. Love it.

[@jawsplays5016]

Thanks for this! Maybe I’ll see you out one of the SC Lakes one day!

[@jasonhale9503]

@BLat Great video! Learned a lot. just started learning how to use my electronics. Getting pretty good. More like playing BATTLESHIP to me the way you explain it 🤔 (Timestamp 11:25) Can’t wait til part 2.

[@matthewheld8577]

Not to distract from this video; but are you looking to partner with gambler boats out of santee, SC. Fans want to know?

[@alfonsogarza353]

What’s up brother?? WA state…

[@TCoop29016]

Brian did a video years ago where he visited a place in Ga (I think) that did custom hard baits. They only took orders at certain times during the year. I have searched his vids and cannot find it. Can anyone help me out?

Ooooooooweeeeeee! I've been waiting for a good breakdown of thses!!

[@williampark1369]

Thanks bro, I'm 65 and I decided to fish local tournament's. Bought a 78 procraft as I am older. I'm trying to decide on what kind of locater to use, inexpensive. Thks for the info, I needed it. What older one would you buy?

[@steveparker7240]

Throw your trolling motor overboard on Lake Fork, idle around for about 10 seconds, and knock it off. 😂

[@gewglesux]

I take it from his description Lotta stumps and such?

[@steveparker7240]

@@gewglesux Lots of open water, lots of big timber, some very dense. Probably 65%-70% flooded timber, most of which is less than a foot below normal water. The fish live in the timber areas. Easy lake to run, there are cut boat lanes, but navigating through the stumps is tricky.

[@gewglesux]

@@steveparker7240 Thanks for the reply. I live on Long Island NY.. I'd kill for deepwater.. just something i can get a Crankbait through without a lot of fouling..

[@jlabate1]

Ya fishing is good but dammit that beard is on point! Haha

BLat, what double Bow mount are you using? My second graph is coming soon

[@Dbars19]

Step 5: just buy a live scope

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

i can just use the old hummird flasher to catch fish i can find brush piles with that an i see the depth all that matters..Now the new tech should be banned watching fish bite the lure no sport allows a easier way to play the sport.To say you cant use nothing like a Arig but can watch fish swim around dont make no since to me at all

[@deonjackson193]

Is that gray hair in that beard?

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

C-MON you know well as i do NOWAY you find school fish without that unless you just made a lucky cast..Nobody will beat Jacob for numbers of fish against his electronics.An you with no electronics cause the tour he fishing is about numbers not 5 bank runners..fishing is a countryboy sport an Bass Pro Shop tring to make it a richman sport.DO AWAY WITH ELECTRONICS NOTHING BUT 2D sonar an every single person fishing is on the same page thats what wrong with this sport bass pro shop getting millions every event an not putting our tax money back in the pot its all going in his bank account
