Got one ordered this morning.
Now to figure out how I want to mount it and the pole.
Show me your setup so I can get some ideas.

Congrats!
Snakebit done been Snake bit! lol, I could not resist. Have fun, don't get too frustrated with it, it gets better.
Hope you enjoy it.
You’ll like it, frustrating and fun at the same time. LOL
You will learn more about crappie behavior in a month than you have learned over your lifetime. Congrats on the purchase. One of the things you will find out is that sniping crappie (being a screen watcher) is not the only method to use Livescope.
this .....until you master it , it will make you less intelligent for sure .....Quote:

Congrats on the purchase. Hope it brings you much success
LS can be used for sniping, brush jigging, dock shooting, and spider rigging. Perspective view is better than Mega 360 too! It has a large learning curve, but it definitely changed the game for me. Good luck!
Congrats, now you can see how many fish you can't catch! :cheers2
Had Livescope since the LVS 32 came out.
Mixed feelings on whether I’ve caught more since or before.
Locating fish….check
Boat control….check
Bait presentation….check
Times of frustration….double check
Useful tool for sure.
Hope you got at least a 12” inch screen.
I am moving up to the 16” inch soon.
Started with a pole, then the Turrett and now on Ultrex shaft.
Have the hummingbird 360 too but don’t use it since Livescope.
Good luck and have fun.

I used the bracket from an old transom-mount trolling motor. Clamps to the boat and is easy to deploy and adjust. Let me see if I have a pic...

I'm thinking of moving over to a bike-mount permanently mounted. It looks like this:

I bought the mount, but haven't felt like making the change yet.
Yep, there’s plenty of them that’ll just watch your bait go right on by.Quote:

Started with the "seelite " system . ok for open water chasing (what most tournament guys do ) how ever in open water most seem to put transducer on trolling motor shaft . I sold mine when the transducer went bad in 6 months . Had a 1222 and found that for me the sideview was plenty to find /catch fish . jmo .
HAHA ... yeah, they will !! Thing is though, they'd have done that anyway & you just wouldn't have known about it without forward facing sonar. And you might even have thought there were no fish in that spot & moved on, leaving other fish that would bite behind.Quote:

On my lake there are times they will not touch a 2 inch bait in the winter. They will let it swim right on by them. Throw a 1.25 bait to them and they will be on it like a duck on a junebug. If nothing else Livescope has taught me that crappie can be very finicky at times.
