Paul this is an excellent video. I am going out on the water in the morning so I am going to reference your video on my phone and try out what you have shown in this video n. I am adding your instruction videos to my play list. So I can refer back to them. Thank for your time and help to teach us dummies.
Paul I am new to waypoint navigation. I actually got lost on a big lake and it took me forever to find the boat ramp lol…. I saw how you navigated to your waypoint with the trolling motor . Do you have a video navigating to a way- point running the boat ? Can you explain it like you did in this video ? I know it’s probably easy but I am very new to this . As much detail would be greatly appreciated.
Awesome video!! I am trying to get better at offshore fishing and this video has answered a lot if not all the questions I had. Thank you!! I would like to see you do a offshore structure bass fishing video!
I think there is another variable. The Length from the transducer to the helm screen/gps module. If your helm is 10 forward of your ducer, you are 10 feet further away from the structure than you think you are. Only way I see to pinpoint the structure is to mark it on the helm then use the trolling motor ducer to go back and find that exact structure and mark it again, then back away. I may be wrong here but I tend to over think things, lol.
Please do a video on winter bass like small mouth showing us what channel swings are and how the fish set up on them like a advanced mapp reading where u locate bass off shore and show on unit what are channel swings all the big shots talk about love the new content brotha 👊
Thank you helps alot.....when ur bass fishing how far away from ur way point do u get....and is there a gap in that distance ,if ur transducers in the back?
At the end of the clip, when you showed the crappie, they actually looked like fish, can I ask what settings to use to see images like this. I've been doing a lot of experimenting with settings, and can't images like these. Much appreciate any help you can pass on.
I can’t get back directly on my waypoint. Keeps moving to the right or the left. I do a zoom in to get it bigger and that’s where I can’t zero in on it. Thanks Richard
@@Camh1968 The best way I have found is to put a waypoint in and as you are going back toward it is keep making it bigger the closer you get to it. Another words zoom in on it the closer you get to it. Hope this helps.
I have a new Carbon unit and set a new waypoint. Then, I accidentally hit Go To and the route from my house to the new waypoint appeared. How do I delete that ? Thanks....I enjoy your videos.
i don't but they are very similar as what they can do to the HDS and carbon series. they can't share mapping of course and a few other minor things but great units over all
I know this is an older video but maybe you'll answer what direction do you want your map settings on back and front graph? Example north up, course up etc.
great video thanks! I have a question? i mark with the back of the boat and way points show on the front graph but my heading wont move toward waypoint on front graph any ideas
On one side of my structure scan its darker then the other....first quarter of my screen it's about as big as the black that shows under ur boat on the screen but all the way on the left ....any idea what went wrong..???..i can still see a lil but not like it supposed to be? THE Right side and half the left is perfect
It would be nice if you could do a video on how to use the steering option for autopilot to bring you back to a spot? OR reply here on how to use the steering option w autopilot?? Thank you
Does the hook2 7 work like this? I purchased one and the sales man tells me it can mark waypoints but not off the side imagine view. I'm not sure why they would take that feature out as it comes in handy.
Paul. I final got my charts to come up on my 9 ti. But now when I save a way point it comes up in the screen whit a message that says low memory. Why is it doing this. I have my cart card in the unit. Do I need to take the chart card out of the unit after it is loaded and put a 32 gig card in to save my waypoints on. I was under the impression that the chart card had to be in the unit to operate the charts. Am I wrong on this.
so after u reached your spot u have to go to menu, navigation, cancel and that should take the numbers off and then u should have 3 little dashes ---. it will stay that way until u select it again or your next target
@@PaulGettysFishing awesome. Thank you.. I had some othere questions. I was wondering about removing co tour lines and also changing the color of the boat icon. Black on black is not easy to see.
@@PaulGettysFishing The more pressing question I have is "memory running low" on 7ti unit. I have navionics on a msd chip. I don't know the size of the chip. How can I handle the low memory? Is 32gb the max size? The navionics chip does not have a current subscription. Can I create my own contour maps? Thanks...
when you run 2 point-1's, do you mount one for each transducer? And, do you run them on the same nema2000 network? If so, how to you keep them from confusing what point-1 antenna to use? Thanks for your time, and help.
Fishing In The City one is the point 1 antenna and the other is the gps puck for the trolling motor, your puck is to close to trolling motor the magnetic interference is pulling the heading off. U need to move it and recalibrate it
Ya, I'd be pissed. anyways thank you for the guide. ill still use my buoy when i want to fish something but this is still helpful for when Im just scouting.

Great info. Thank you for posting this.
Thanks for the videos
Thanks, great video. Also I was wondering why Lowrance removed the auto routing function?
Fantastic video!!! Thank you sir!!
thanks
Thank You! Love your vids!
Robert Osterday thanks for watching
Thank you helps alot.....when ur bass fishing how far away from ur way point do u get....and is there a gap in that distance ,if ur transducers in the back?
Thank you sir, awesome tutorial as always.
Great Video Paul.......Thanks
i need these units... great info!!
thank you
Wa La good job....................
This Helps A lot Thanks.

Can you show us how to change colors of dept on map??
Great tip
I can’t get back directly on my waypoint. Keeps moving to the right or the left. I do a zoom in to get it bigger and that’s where I can’t zero in on it. Thanks Richard
Have you found the solution here? I’m keen to learn.

Great video! Can I do this with the Elite 7ti ? I've had trouble in the past trying navigate back to a way point. This helps a lot. Thanks!
Jaime Salinas yes u can
PaulGettysFishing thank you!
I have a new Carbon unit and set a new waypoint. Then, I accidentally hit Go To and the route from my house to the new waypoint appeared. How do I delete that ? Thanks....I enjoy your videos.
On chart press navigation or navigate and press cancel
@@PaulGettysFishing Copy that....thanks!
Do you have a series on the Elite ti units. I just purchased an Elite 9 ti totalscan and it will be here today. Thanks
i don't but they are very similar as what they can do to the HDS and carbon series. they can't share mapping of course and a few other minor things but great units over all
Good video! Is there any way you could show how to mark waypoints and navigate on a Hook series? Thanks so much!
thx, i will see if i can find a hook 7 and get one done for ya.
PaulGettysFishing Awesome! Thanks again!
I know this is an older video but maybe you'll answer what direction do you want your map settings on back and front graph? Example north up, course up etc.
Heading up with a point 1
@@PaulGettysFishing on front graph too?
Yes on both
@@PaulGettysFishing thank you
great video thanks! I have a question? i mark with the back of the boat and way points show on the front graph but my heading wont move toward waypoint on front graph any ideas
Make sure u have clear cursor pressed
@@PaulGettysFishing thanks I took the boat out today and didnt have hds gen 3 selected caught a few on the T Rock
On one side of my structure scan its darker then the other....first quarter of my screen it's about as big as the black that shows under ur boat on the screen but all the way on the left ....any idea what went wrong..???..i can still see a lil but not like it supposed to be? THE Right side and half the left is perfect
depends on where u have the transducer mounted, sounds like it is partially blocked
email me pics paul@tacticalsonar.com
is your orientation set to north up or course up?
Heading up
How about using the "Steering" page option?
It would be nice if you could do a video on how to use the steering option for autopilot to bring you back to a spot? OR reply here on how to use the steering option w autopilot?? Thank you
Does the hook2 7 work like this? I purchased one and the sales man tells me it can mark waypoints but not off the side imagine view. I'm not sure why they would take that feature out as it comes in handy.
yes u definitely can if you have the triple shot transducer
PaulGettysFishing good to know. This weekend will be my first time out with it. I did go with the triple shot thankfully.

check your free space on the unit, pages, files, my files
PaulGettysFishing will do thanks
Paul, I have the HDS Gen 3 and I found Distance to Desination but it stays on screen constantly. Even when I put Stop on it. Yours disappears !
so after u reached your spot u have to go to menu, navigation, cancel and that should take the numbers off and then u should have 3 little dashes ---. it will stay that way until u select it again or your next target
Thanks Paul.
Can I lower the boat icon to the bottom of the mage so I can see more of what is coming?
Yes choose look ahead in the menu
@@PaulGettysFishing awesome. Thank you..

@@golfish8589 delete your trails and see how many way points u have, make sure u don't have any old transfer files under transfers
HOW DID U LINK THE MINN-KOTA TO THE LOWRANCE HDS 12 ?
Ralph Cline its not linked
Are you running the point one antenna on the front are the back of your boat.
front for the one's i install, unless we are running 2 point ones
when you run 2 point-1's, do you mount one for each transducer? And, do you run them on the same nema2000 network? If so, how to you keep them from confusing what point-1 antenna to use? Thanks for your time, and help.
Does anyone make a DETAILED video for the hook2
Why do u have 2 of the round white GPS on front...my arrow keeps turning....everytime I slow down
Fishing In The City one is the point 1 antenna and the other is the gps puck for the trolling motor, your puck is to close to trolling motor the magnetic interference is pulling the heading off. U need to move it and recalibrate it
I didn’t think you could link Lowrance with minn Kota motors?
it's not linked
hello Paul
I have a question about a gen 3 and 3d structure.
PaulGettysFishing yes I liked your page . talk to you tomorrow
I have the 2 HDS 7s gen 2 and I still can't figure them out. Frustrating to say the least
i have always just dropped a marker bouy over it when im idling
To many pirates out there lol, they will mark it and move it around here
Ya, I'd be pissed. anyways thank you for the guide. ill still use my buoy when i want to fish something but this is still helpful for when Im just scouting.
yes sir anytime
How do you no there crappie?
how they are stacked up(verticle) and in a pod, large mouth stack horizontal
Where is the setting for Distance to Destination?
press power button once, edit overlay, menu, add, navigation, Distance to destination, move it where u want it and then hit save
Thank You Good Sir!
I didn’t think lowrance and minn kota interacted with each other
they don't interact with each other, which part were u thinking they were interacting?
