I have a couple questions about the Garmin. Where did you get the post that has the transducer attached and is the transducer pointing down to be able to see around the boat? Looks like you can see at least 50 ft out from the boat in 20 ft deep of water and you rotate the transducer to see forward, sides or back of boat (like the old Hummingbird Fishing Buddy but a lot nicer).
That’s a great lookin slip indicator you’re using. Do you have a link where I can buy some? Looks like a much more buoyant option than your typical slip indicator.
Hey Mark I just run 2 go pros. A hero 9 and 10. I used to use a bunch of Scotty extensions to get the camera out there but now. I have the camera arm that they just came out with.
It would help if you revive your fish in the net for a minute so it has a better chance to escape the loon under the boat. Since the water is only 47 you really dont have any larva hatching yet. Zoo plankton
AS for loons I have had battles with them over the years. A couple of lakes in the Cariboo have them bad. They see you with a fish on and come and take right off the hook. I have had to throw rocks at them to keep them away. Caught a seagull on a kokanee rig and a ospray grabbed one of my kokanee and flew off with it still with the hook in the fish, lots of line taken, tried to break the line but did not want the hook in the osprey so the tug of war began. Finally it dropped the fish. The seagull was hooked in the bill so we had quite a time getting the hook without being bitten and thumped by the wings. Loons just steal your fish.
Hate those shiner hits lol. Once we left one on and a trout took it.
I have also had a similar experience with those damn shiners and a rainbow there
on the distance away scale on top of the livescope, can you also tell which direction away they are?
Yes. You can figure out which direction they are coming from based on where your transducer is pointing .
That’s great images on the sounder. That lake was really bad for shiners a couple years back. Hopefully the last winter kill thinned them out?
I really think the introduction of the horse flies really made an impact on that shiner population. Thanks for the comments and watching the vids!

Hey Gordon that pole I have is from summit fishing equipment in the states. The Garmin unit can scan upto 150ft or more in front of the boat
@@bobtistaoutdoors Thank you Bob. Looks like a slick setup.
What are the livescope setting you are using? Gain? Color? Nice clear image

Yeah for sure we sell them at the shop. www.twoutdoors.ca they are the top shelf strike indicators from Brendan Morrison.
Thanks for watching the video!
What is your set up for the camera?
Hey Mark I just run 2 go pros. A hero 9 and 10. I used to use a bunch of Scotty extensions to get the camera out there but now. I have the camera arm that they just came out with.
Can you do a tying video of your top best producing fly?
I have definitely thought about it. I will try to get one done
Bob you have a channel?
Yes I do
Any black waters caught ?
I remember catching 1 at least majority were housefly.

Very true. I had a similar experience with an Osprey and I'd rather deal with loons stealing fish than hooking a bird by accident
