You've done your homework , proven it to yourself, and was kind enough to share this time and "learned" knowledge with others. This makes it so much better for those new to this type of fishfinder/sonar. You are a true fisherman's friend. Thank you.
Excellent instruction! I’m an older guy an electronics are pretty difficult for me. I’ll take my iPad to the lake so I can watch this while I learn how to use my elite7 ti. Thanks a bunch for this video.
had mine for 5 years and havn't used it at all as had trouble staying on and ketchn too many fish prowling banks and docks instead. but determined to get this going as lots of docks on my lake and that's where the crappie are. Thanks.
That was an awesome video!! Thank you so much for taking the time to go through the Lowrance. I’m ready to hit the water and get mine tuned up finally.
Great video! Very easy to understand the setting you laid out. Just installed mine this week and launching from where you did tomorrow morning! Keep those lines tight!
Thanks mate , that was really helpful, I feel more at home with my 7ti now , felt a bit lost before and not getting best out of it , mine doesn't have some of the fish finder options so might be a lil different in the UK
I replaced the old units on my boat with these a few months ago. Haven't really gotten them set up the way I wanted. Coming from an old grey scale unit, these are amazing with all the buttons and features. Good walk thru and very informative.
Bass Monkey Fishing......you have produced one of the best Fishfinder videos I have seen, and believe I have watch alot.....I was on the border bewteen buying a Hook2 or Elite TI 7 with total scan...your video has really pushed me towards the elite TI. thanks. Martin O'Bryant.
First time I have seen someone actually have arcs for fish. Good job on the setup and vid. I think I'm gonna upgrade my HDS Gen2 to the Ti and the Ti2.
Learned a heck of a lot from this one brah! It's obvious you also have a lot of confidence in using your electronics. I just picked up an Elite 9 for my Tracker 185 and looking forward to applying what you provided here. Thanx huge brah, for sharing this ossum info!
@@BassMonkey Brah, yet another good one...maybe my love/hate relationship with Folsom Lake (which is 5mins from my house but I'd rather fish the Delta) will lean more on love now. I actually have a Humminbird Helix 5 for my bow mount and the Elite 9 Ti at the console, but just knowing the different settings helps out quite a bit! Thanx huge Brah!
Mark Cunningham thank u check out my newest video where I put this unit on my trolling motor and you can watch the line go down to the fish and basically watch them eat thank you
Thankyou for the video! I just installed the very same unit my boat, well not the transducer yet but next weekend it will be in. Anyway very informative. Thanks !
Great video and tutorial. One thing I have trouble comprehending is going to the front of the boat for fish marked on sonar after you pass them. Is the angle of sonar sufficient so the fish marked would be in that area?
I don't think you want it level with the bottom of the boat because the boat sits in the water with bow up. You need to account for this by putting the transducer in a angle to compensate for this which usually results with it in a positive angle. Just my thoughts
great video! just one question. If i were to put this on the front of my bot and mount the transducer on the trolling motor… how would i go about that?
Ralph Miranda check out my newest video i put this unit on the trolling motor and showed my line dropping down and catching alot of fish thanks for the sub and tight lines
Very good video, I have the elite TI2 and my side structure image looks nothing as sharp as your TI, am I doing something wrong, also the transducer I have my wire facing the front does it matter,
Thanks make sure to watch my other video on this unit i put it up on the trolling motor and show fish and catch fish drop shot settings u will love this unit click this link th-cam.com/video/Ke7_6-sOZsM/w-d-xo.html
The only thing missing is a useless introduction song and uneccessary delay of getting right to the point....otherwise perfect. Will be using it to set my unit up tomorrow.
I am looking for my first fish finder, I can say in all the videos I've watched this is a very Impressive Informational tutorial! Well Done. How long have you been using the Elite 7 TI? The folks working for Lowrance Can not do a nicer job.
*Like going from a bi-plane to a fighter jet! Easy to install, the sidescan works well>>>**allabout.wiki/fd12** and it's definitely a game changer when it comes to bottom fishing. While you can see schools of baitfish in your downscan screen, the sidescan shows you where they are relative to the boat's position, which is not necessarily straight down from the transducer. Showed a friend how it worked yesterday and while the regular sonar showed a huge ball of bait, the sidescan showed us that it was actually 20-30 feet off the starboard side of the boat.*
Hy You have 2 tranducers but you have only one inlet in elite 7ti so when you are using total scan you can not use 2d tranducer can you explain please how to use two tranducers in same time? I am just buying elite 7ti
Thanks for the video. I’m looking to upgrade my lowrance elite 5 to a lowrance elite 7TI or a humminbird Helix 7 for my Hobie pro angler 14 kayak. Which would recommend?
Jim Strunk i have both the mapping on the humminbird lakemaster is better but if u want to see fish better i would go with. Lowrance check out my newest video where i put elite 7 ti. On my trolling motor and show my line going down to the fish and catching them ill try to do a helix 7 video
Like your video. Nicely explained. Whsy you place your transducer with the wire cable aft? Have you ever created a nmea network with your TI? IF yes what system or unit are connected?
FishingGalway thanks chec out my other video where i put this unit on the trolling Motor and drop shot settings with lots of tips and fish catches tight lines
Otis Pye thanks check out my other video where i put this unit on the trolling motor and show lots of fish and fish catches drop shot settings tips tight lines 🐟
Thanks for the video. Is there a way to change the size of each panel? For instance, having a smaller panel of sonar while using most of the screen for mapping or side scan.
Liked and Subbed - your teaching vids are great - Question on the Elite 7 ti - Have you installed the latest software that allows you to merge your 2D with your DI? they call it FishReveal. I've seen it on some other vids for the ti2 and they say it will work on the upgraded ti. Reason is I might pick up a used 7 ti but was kind of drawn to that feature. I can get a gently used 7ti for many hundreds less than a new ti2 and I dont think i need the Active or 3D capabilities. Thanks again for your efforts.
Great video, I just baught the elite 7 ti2. But please tell me that the transponder should be the other way around!?? 😥😥(with the cable close to the boat) or my side image is in the wrong side! (left is right and right is left)
No it does not matter thers a option in the unit that u can click that says flip the transducer left right for me thats what i did u can call lowrance they will help if yours is installed like mine then flip left right in menu if yours is the other way dont worry you are fine
We have a local biologist who says that barbs don't make a difference in the survival rate of the fish especially if you are fly fishing. We tend to hook the fish in the lip area.
It doesn’t matter which way you mount the transducer there’s a button on the menu called flip right left just tap the button and it will configure your Transducer to the way you put it on
thanks for the video very good. i have a problem with my screen presson an icon and it activates one two spaces away. have cleaned screen with alcohol. any ideas?
Love the video. I have an elite 7ti and an HDS7 carbon for each of my Hobie Pro Angler 14 kayaks . Do you feel that the 7” screen is good enough to run dual screens or even triple screen?
chris caluori 7 inch is fine but bigger is always better check out my other video when i put this unit on trolling motor and show alot of fish and drop shot settings th-cam.com/video/Ke7_6-sOZsM/w-d-xo.html
Which do you like better the HDS or the Elite? I just got a new Outback and am trying to decide which one to get. I know the Carbon is way more expensive. Thanks
I see you had I see you had three units on your boat 2 Lowrance and a hummingbird. If you had to get a new one due to water damage but could upgrade (due to being discontinued) the Lowrance that is damaged, would you upgrade the Lowrance Elite 5 chirp to a hook 7 or 9 or would you buy brand-new hummingbird Helix 7
Hey i been wanning to get one o see it been two years do u still have it n if so wat do u think i heard its messes up on the thrid or fourth trip wat do u think.. I going to get the 9in bt wantd to ask someone who had it for a while

Logan Payne that’s what I got! I like it a lot considering what the next step up cost.
Best video, I now completely understand how to use my 7ti successfully..Good Job and thanks Man!!!!
Thanks! Just got the 9ti and 12ti with used Bass Tracker and didn't have a clue how to use them. This helped alot.

Awsome video, I just got the elite 9 using in saltwater. This helps heaps, thanks!
Brotha J hows the Elite 9 working for you in the salt? Shopping for a new unit
@@dadstillsurfs Works great, I fish reefs anywhere from 4m-20m plus deep
I fish brackish water works fine but salt water has a different transducer for the 2 d sonar its 50/200 khz the freshwater ducer is 83/200 khz
Really nice video! Thanks from Sweden!!
Nice job! Thank you for making this.
🤘🏼🦍
man your pictures come out ridiculously clear. my elite 9 ti pictures are shitty.
It would be cool to see a side by side comparison of the Lowrance running next to the Helix!
They both see the same things very comparable but lowrance 2d sonar cant be matched 👍
Dude you are awesome...that was really a great job...TYVM
Thank u sir 👍🦍
Awesome video as always.

Absolutely
Great video but use barbless hooks when doing catch and release...

Hi mate have you done a video in salt water upto. 200 ft depth thanks for this video
No i dont fish in ocean but they sell a different transducer for deep water call lowrance
Is your transducer backwards? I thought the front of the transducer is where the cable goes in.
