Live Sonar in Action

Master Your Livescope: On-the-Water Training

Ready to unlock the full potential of your fishing electronics? Our Livescope Training trip is your ticket to becoming a sonar pro. Whether you're struggling with settings, fish identification, or just want to step up your game, we've got you covered. With thousands of hours using live sonar, we'll transform your boat into a fish-finding machine.

Trip Overview

This ain't your average fishing trip - it's a hands-on masterclass in modern angling tech. We'll hop on your boat and dive deep into the world of Livescope, ActiveCaptain, and all those fancy buttons you've been afraid to touch. No need to feel intimidated by your gear anymore. We'll break down complex features into easy-to-understand tips and tricks. By the end of the day, you'll be spotting fish like a pro and reeling them in with confidence.

Tech Talk & Tactics

First things first, we'll make sure your system's up to snuff. Bring along a 32GB SD card, and we'll get your software updated and settings dialed in. Whether you're rocking Garmin, Lowrance, or Humminbird, we know these systems inside and out. We'll cover everything from basic setup to advanced techniques like interpreting different types of returns and tracking fish movement. Then, we'll put theory into practice. You'll learn how to use Livescope to not just find fish, but to present your bait exactly where it needs to be. It's like having x-ray vision for the water.

Customer Stories

"TJ came aboard our personal fishing boat to help us with the garmin livescope sonar equipment setup. He updated our software and configured the settings for optimal performance. We practiced livescope techniques. We had a great time with TJ. He was on point with everything we were using. We walked away with a better understanding of the electronics we invested in." - Nicholas

"If you are in the market for livescope tips, electronics configuration, or general knowledge of catching crappie, Taylor is your guy. Had a great time and a ton of fish made the traveling team!" - Nicholas

"Got off to a rough start with a battery dead, thankfully TJ knows his way around a boat. Got on the lake and set up all the settings on the electronics, brought home a mess of crappie. Five stars, worth every penny...thanks TJ!" - Steve

Targeting Trophy Fish

While this trip focuses on mastering your electronics, make no mistake - we're here to catch fish too. Livescope is a game-changer for targeting specific species and size classes. For crappie lovers, you'll learn how to spot those signature "Christmas tree" returns and present your bait with pinpoint accuracy. Bass anglers will discover how to track schools and identify prime structure. And for you catfish enthusiasts, we'll show you how to use Livescope to find those deep holes and ledges where the monsters hide.

No matter what you're after, Livescope can give you an edge. You'll learn how fish behave throughout the day, how they relate to structure, and how weather patterns affect their movement. This knowledge isn't just for one trip - it's a skillset you'll use every time you're on the water.

Beyond the Screen

Livescope is an incredible tool, but it's just that - a tool. We'll also cover the importance of understanding your environment, reading the water, and good old-fashioned angling skills. You'll pick up tips on boat control in windy conditions, how to approach different types of structure, and when to trust your instincts over what the screen is showing you.

We'll talk about seasonal patterns, bait selection, and how to adapt your tactics based on what Livescope is telling you. By the end of the day, you'll have a holistic approach to fishing that combines cutting-edge technology with time-tested techniques.

What to Bring

This is a BYO-boat situation, so make sure your rig is gassed up and ready to go. Don't forget that 32GB SD card - it's crucial for updates and setting up ActiveCaptain. Bring along your usual fishing gear, as we'll definitely be wetting some lines. And hey, if you want us to clean your catch, we can do that for an extra $50 on-site. Just remember, the focus here is on learning, so come with an open mind and plenty of questions.

Weather Watch

We fish rain or shine, but safety comes first. If conditions look dicey, we might need to reschedule. That said, don't let a little wind scare you off - sometimes those are the best days to learn boat control and see how Livescope performs in choppy conditions. Just be prepared with appropriate clothing and maybe a rain jacket, just in case.

Booking & Policies

We can accommodate up to two anglers per trip, making this perfect for you and a fishing buddy to learn together. Meals aren't included, so pack a lunch or we can hit a local spot if you prefer. To lock in your date, we require a deposit. Keep in mind, this deposit is non-refundable, so make sure you're good to go before booking.

Time to Level Up Your Fishing Game

Listen, investing in high-end electronics is great, but if you can't use them effectively, you're leaving fish in the water. This Livescope Training trip is your fast-track to becoming the angler you've always wanted to be. You'll gain confidence in your gear, learn to read the water like a pro, and most importantly, catch more fish.

Don't let another season go by wondering "what if." Book your training trip today, and get ready to see the underwater world in a whole new light. Whether you're a weekend warrior or a tournament angler, this knowledge will change the way you fish forever. Let's get out there and turn those blips on the screen into fish in the boat!

Livescope Lifesaver

quotes

Great Guide! I learned more about my Live scope in 30 minutes with TJ than I did after searching for a month on YouTube. From there we fished and were doing great until a battery issue on my boat brought us to a stop. TJ offered some good advise on upgrades to my batteries to eliminate issues in the future. Will definitely be booking with TJ again!
