I'll primarily be using whatever I get for finding/fishing brushpiles more efficiently, but also for suspended fish in the winter months. It will also be used for boulder fishing when I go up north, but that's usually only once a year.
Some of my concerns about livescope..
Is it a pain to pan the TM back and forth to find objects?
If you're using it out deep say main lake points and you have spot lock on is it basically useless if the TM is constantly shifting direction?
Do you find yourself more distracted by constantly looking at the screen trying to "video game" fish the whole time instead of just casting/panning for cover?
How are the images in wavy water?
Concerns about 360..
Is it durable? I feel like I've read a lot about the transducer bulb breaking or leaking some sort of fluid..I also fish very rough water and drive sensible, but it needs to be able to withstand that.
Is the GPS heading sensor required? I currently have Lowrance units and would primarily sidescan and then go back with 360 to target it
How are the images, and does it produce good images into say 30-40'? I'm not looking for crystal clear, but I want to be able to identify brush piles etc.
Thanks guys
