Jigging Walleye on the Detroit River with Garmin Livescope in Down View

[@rickfascinato5758]

That was aweaome..... Really cool to see the way those walleye react to the jig

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

It is amazing technology. I'm a little addicted to it!

[@alicesrooster]

absolutely sick!! what an amazing tool. i was out catching white bass with perspective yesterday on the fox river with mine. this cannot be legal!

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

It is amazing technology.

[@brianscurr1516]

Cool video. Keep them coming. Great footage with the live scope.

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Thanks Brian! I really appreciate that!

[@austinitor]

I love that I don't have to mess with trying to get my scope to stay in Perspective view.

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Once in a while if it’s not calibrated it will not switch even manually. If you ever have an issue just make sure you calibrate the compass in forward view and it will resolve the issue.

[@1829Lola]

Great video. Looking forward to Smallmouth Videos.

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

I would have already done one if I could have went back over.

[@johnedmunds1380]

Best footage I have seen. Thanks

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Wow, thanks!

[@robertolson291]

Just saw this Heath; great video!

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Thank you Robert!

[@muskietime]

AWESOME! Be Well.

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Thank you!

My question, how do you find walleye on the bottom. I couldn’t see them until they came up for a jig

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

In both forward and down you can see them. When they are glued tight to the bottom you have to pay very close attention to bottom variation. Most of the time you just see a bump in the bottom that is moving.

[@brent338]

Sub. Cool footage, how deep have you tried this method? How deep do you think it could go?...

[@sauve12]

I have fished 80 feet jigging up Lakers with panoptix

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

I have used it several times in 100 feet on Lake Huron for Lake Trout and Salmon.

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Where do you target Lakers? On the great lakes?

[@brent338]

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

@@brent338 Awesome, this is something new I have just started trying this year. I think I could quickly become addicted to it!

[@levonluther9494]

Did you find it hard to stay vertical and pay attention to lure at the same time? Looks like it might help us avoid a few snags here and there too.

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Once you get a rhythm going it’s not hard at all. The Detroit River is the shaggiest place on earth!

[@kirks6859]

How is down view on PanOptix different than using down imaging ? When would u use each

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Sorry for the late reply, work has had me pretty busy. Downview on livescope is live. Down imaging has lag. Down imaging would be used for graphing basically the same as 2D sonar would be used. Livescope downview is excellent for fishing vertical structure. It is amazing at showing how big a fish is and you can watch them attack your lure.

[@jeffmyers6029]

Do you like down view better than forward view?

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Forward view is the best overall view for all aspects. I use down view if I’m fishing vertically or on top of deep structure. Down helps determine fish size and species a bit better.

[@icefishing804]

Amazing!

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Thanks!

[@adamhackman2089]

How much was that particular setup? Do you need panoptics aswell?

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

That is a Garmin Echomap Ultra 106sv. The graph and transducer of my setup will run you around $3300. Yes you do need livescope to see them like that.

[@wadewinch4372]

Awesome video it relates to me fishing the Niagara. Love my livescope

[@angolajones1]

Wagner, you are a fish catching machine. How kind of you to show some of your secrets.

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

[@humibugs]

How did you mount? Trolling motor or transom? I have just livevu mounted on my trolls barrel. Never can seem to get my jig to get picked up

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

Mine is on my trolling motor mounted on the shaft. It is the only way I like to have it.

[@christopheknockaert3571]

Is that with the ps30 transducer?

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

No it is with the LVS32 transducer.

[@pywifishingandoutdoors]

Hey, thats cheating lol

[@HeathWagnerFishing]

It almost is! but it sure is fun!
