What A WINNING Spot Looks Like // Side Imaging CRASH COURSE

This is a GREAT video. I am 70 years old and I don't do will trying to experiment with electronics all by myself. This saved me years of fiddling around. I don't have that many left. Thank you for making this video. I am glad you won the tournament.

This is the only video on side imaging newbies need to watch. Period.

I don’t have Livescope, but have watched multiple Garmin side-scanning videos and this by far is the best. You are very articulate and explain very well what we are seeing, which we all appreciate. Keep up the great work and good luck fishing. Obviously with your skill set you don’t need as much luck as the rest of us.

This channels and “fish the moment “ are the best

I don't even own a boat let alone any electronics yet found this presentation quite interesting. Nicely done T.

The SI demo with the light bulb and paper was the best demo I have EVER seen and I have watched a lot on SI. Your explanation of the water column and how far away objects actually are is awesome. For the first time I actually get it. Thanks!!

Best side scan video I've seen...graphics were outstanding at the beginning to really show how things lay out in 3-D. Only suggestion is you say you have to "subtract" off the depth...that is not really correct. The object's distance is exactly what it says on the unit if you draw a line from the transducer to the object. You can think of this as the hypotenuse of a right triangle (one leg of the right angle is a line dropping from transducer to the bottom, the other right angle side is from the bottom directly under the boat moving to the side (right or left) along the bottom. You do not subtract the depth of the right angle side going from the boat to the bottom from the distance along the bottom's right angle side...instead you measure the hypotenuse to get the distance. So the object is closer than it appears if you just consider distance right/left of boat, but it is not as close as you would calculate if you subtract the depth off of the range. Your model shows this relationship well, but you should not say to subtract off the bottom depth as that will put the distance too close to the boat (you could use geometry to actually calculate it...this is called slant-range correction). Anyhow...all that does not diminish how outstanding this video is...thanks!

One thing that was not mentioned regarding side imaging, the dark spot directly below the transducer/hull and the distance from your boat is directly correlated to the depth of the water you are in. To overcome this problem mark the brush, rock or structure on the screen with a waypoint/GPS then go back over the waypoint and dial in the location precisely with a waypoint edit.

Hands down, one of the best tutorials on interpreting electronics. Thank you. 🙏

This was probably the best overview on how to interpret side-scan I've come across so far. So many of the vids just go over the individual unit settings, but neglect to explain how to actually tell different things apart, be it structure, bottom types, or fish. Thanks for putting together a solid tutorial on actually understanding what's what on the screen and correlating it to the downscan. Got my first graph on the way and look forward to having a head start when I hopefully begin using it this spring.

I am totally amazed at your presentation on side imagining. It’s light years from the Hummingbird Super 60 flasher I used way back when. I just wanted to say thank you for explaining it all. Very educational

Love all the work you do brother. Making better fisherman of us all. Thank You Sir

Im in the process of buying a boat now and this was definitely some need to know information. Awesome videos, keep the content coming.

Best side imaging video on the internet hands down. GREAT work. I am a very experienced user and fully understand side imaging and still learned a few things.

Man this is the best explanation ive ever seen on side imaging! Thanks for this!!

Thanks Ty. What a great help, always looking to get better with my electronics .Thanks again and God bless you and your family!!!

Best side imaging video I’ve watched. Description and information was broken down perfectly.

Great video! I am still learning to use my side scan and this was VERY helpful at understanding what I’m seeing.

Home run!!! Mic drop! I couldn't ask for a more detailed explanation for using my Solix. Now, an on-the-water followup would be icing on the cake showing how you position your boat and lure selection. Thanks.

Really great video brother I understood this breakdown of sid imaging better then any other one I've watched...
