- It's frightening how much "advice" is on the internet these days with very little actual application of that regurgitated information. In today's video I'll show you how to ACTUALLY read your side imaging, then apply different baits/techniques with forward facing sonar to catch more and bigger bass.

Love this type of video!🐐 Id like to see one of you taking the time to graph and find offshore fish on a new lake, walking us through it the whole time. Showing us what areas you take time to idle on and whether you take a zig zag route approach or whatever you do. And whether you take time and focus on one creek the whole time or jump around.
Absolutely man that's a great idea! Many of new places to explore down here in texas too. I could probably make a 5 hour video graphing each creek on Rayburn...."here's a school of catfish....heeeere's a school of white bass...and oh wow! Heeeere's a school of gar!" haha
Man I agree with this!! Offshore vid would be great!
@@MillikenFishing Ben, I know you are a celebrity and everything now with the recent Open win (CONGRATS, BTW!) 😁... but do you anticipate doing another "FISH WITH BEN!" sweepstakes? Shoot brother, just say the word, and I'll provide an all-expense paid trip for you to come to my home lake and fish with me. PLUS, pay whatever Guide fees you have. 100% DEAD SERIOUS.
@@MillikenFishing look Im down to learn man youd at least have me watching it man
+1 for this video idea. Based on your other vids I am sure it would be very helpful.
I feel like this is the time the ole lady showed me the sonogram. Look at the arm, leg, feet & hands & I'm like yeah I don't see it.. 😆
Would love to see a video on your settings for the humminbird. Mine has never looked near as good as that. Been watching you for a while now. I remember when you quit your job and had a year to prove you could do it. Nice to see how far you have came since then.
Really appreciate your support since then Chase. That's a great idea for a video!
Absolutely, hands down, my favorite all-time video of yours......screen shots with explanations followed by lure rotatation explanations. Keep this type of video coming please.
Love what I hope will be a series! A request to show when you mark the fish/structure how and what are you using to position your boat.
I would like to see you walk through the settings of the graph on a lake and actually showing what the fish look like and how to really dial in your unit Love the contact You bet
Good idea chris! There was definitely some shots of what fish look like in this one.
What a great video. Finally, somebody showing what a school of bass look like on side imaging and forward imaging. Showing what those bass looked like lined up on the bottom was very informative. Please keep this up!
Great video and information. I am now completely retired and it is time for me to get back on the water . I am looking at everything and learning the new technology... It is funny though. Back when I had my boat... yes to many years.. decades..ago. People [the old school fishermen lol] would laugh at us with our fancy electronic stuff. It was old Hummingbird radar... and we had a deal you dropped over into the water and it told you the color to use. Water temperature and ph. It was sophisticated stuff lol.. But it actually worked to a point. No matter what it is fun.
This is exactly why I subscribed to your channel! You provide information and content that no one else provides! All I can say is thank you for sharing, and thank you for having the insight to see what is missing, and what is needed in the fishing community.
Man I cannot tell you how much I enjoy your content. You are not just a talker your actual do-er 😁. please keep the content coming you have really outdone yourself. Keep making it thank you so much👍🏾
Yes, yes, yes! Better than the rest per the usual. This is how you make content! Thx brotha
Really enjoyed this one. I have all the electronics, but I need to learn. This helps
What's up Ben, Slaw and Mfers! Ben I really appreciate the fact that you take the time to not only show different techniques and tackle you use, but using these 'fish finders'! Because although I have fished for as long as I can remember, I still have some trouble reading those. Keep doing what you do!! 🎣💥👊🏻
Finally. A video where someone sits down an shows what these fish look like more then just 10 seconds. Even though I am very good with my live scope I still need help with my hummingbirds.
THIS is the kind of video I've been looking for! I just subscribed. Hope to see more! Thanks!
Just subscribed this is definitely worth my thumbs up! Enjoy these kind of videos by the way Go Big Red!!
Love it!!! U still the man on the you tubes, fish with the x ray machines.
I’ve been waiting on this!! Hit it right on the head. I plan to quick my factory job and pursue fishing within next 2 years. You’re amazing, best fishing channel on TH-cam by far. I grew up watching WWE with my pops, my son will grow up watching MILLIKEN FISHING!!!
Thanks for sharing Big Ben! Keep up all the great footy! You da man 👊🏻🎣🔥
Great video, I think you and fish the moment are two of the TH-camrs who are better about showing their electronics screens.
I think one of the biggest factors guys leave off with offshore videos is the amount of time idling. That, and finding the juice only to not have it work out.
Another factor guys leave off is fishing rocks, especially for smallmouth, and not seeing the actual bass at all.
It's definitely not always easy. Johnny does a great job with his videos
Love these videos keep them coming
Thanks for the help!!! I have live scope and am trying to learn what to look for. This helps a ton!!
Glad to hear that Paul!
Bout time someone took the time to do this!! And it's a plus u have Humminbirds I run the same so I can relate. I struggle seeing those shadows or pepper as Defoe calls it, I feel as if I overlook alot so I would love to see more side imaging!!
Great illustration thanks
Bro. AMEN on this. More action and less talking. Love it
Best bass fishing channel out there imo
Any chance of going over your settings for side scan and LS?
Really good video.Very informative like your old videos. It was especially nice only hearing "deal" once.
Nice. Nobody covers more IMO than Mike Smedley. Look up Old school. He has the best tutorials that I have found.
Love all the information in this video. Plus solid fish catching action
Please do a video with the Sweep. Maybe if I see you slay em it will give me more confidence in it.
I appreciate your video sir. I learned a lot. Thanks. 😊
Good Video. My question is "Does it hurt the fish, especially the bigger ones, by just throwing/tossing them back in the lake"? Great Video !!
In the spring in that creek channel they are on every bend. That lake is straight juice
do you have a video on your electronics setup with hummingbird and garmin livescope?
Appreciate ya always keepin it real man, not being afraid to speak ya mind, and for breakin this all down🤘🏻
I really enjoy your how to video you know what your doing unlike some so your information is very valuable
Love it MFer! Can you do some bank fishing videos breaking down bodies of water? Keep up the good work man!
Wow, actual fish on the screen and on deck. Slauch Master!
Is there a way to send live video feed from the sonar to an external recording device like an I-pad or other OS? It would be a game changer for teaching and showing that it’s all legitimate, like you said…a little less talk and a lot more action.
Great job explaining electronic fishing.
Mr. Clark Reehm has some good scope/target videos
You and John Soukup would make a team that is unbeatable in a Tournament. You need to contact John and do a collab with him! You 2 have extensive knowledge!!! Keep the videos coming Milliken!#RippinLipsInc on You Tube!
Absolutely want to see more like this love to learn new stuff maybe do on on side scan tho
No one ever does videos of graphing for offshore fish in northern states that would be pretty sweet. We don’t really have brush piles all over like out there here in NY. A video on what they set up on and and where to look to find them would be awesome. When people think of NY they only think of smallmouth but there’s plenty of largemouth in most lakes around here.
Very very good video, so I just got a 360 and would love to see you do one like that for the 360
Great content enjoyed you sharing how you find them! Like how you boxed them good tip!Thanks
The thing id like to see that I struggle with is how after you find them, and mark them how you go about turning around on them to fish for them. I will find fish on SI and DI mark them and go to turn the boat around to fish them and it’s like I marked the wrong spot or something. Any advice on that would be great! Thanks for all you do Ben!
Something that I really liked that he did in this video is not only drop one waypoint but he dropped four waypoints in a box and then in that box is the fish. So when you do that at the console, turn around to drop your trolling motor in, you look at the graph on the front of the boat (which if it is networked with your console unit you’ll see those waypoints) then you start to scan with livescope in that box area. I’ll definitely be using that tip for sure. I always just drop one point and sometimes it’s hard to get back to exactly what you saw on side imaging. 👍🏼
Seems rare that a catfish hits a lure...
Had one a couple of years ago hit a 10" t-rigged worm
Good video
Not rare at all here in ky. I've caught them on crankbaits, spinnerbaits, jigs, and wacky rigged senkos. At first I'm like oh yeah I've got a giant bass, but quickly realize it's a damn catfish 😆
I am a new sub and think this was a great video. Would love to see at different times of the year.
Great video! Thanks for the info. It is very appreciated!
Awesome video I like the the content I like to learn different ways you are a great teacher I learn a lot from your videos thanks
sweet content my friend. surprisingly insightful!
Awesome stuff thanks Ben
Loved the video. I definitely want to see more like it
Awesome video!
Enjoy your videos! Maybe show an A rig sometime
Fun video. Learned alot.
Great video , very informative!!
#1 reason I love watching your vids. BOAT FLIPPING 6ers
Well said miliken fishing 👍
I bought the 7sv and used it yesterday and was able to catch one fish it was a small brim but never caught one in the middle of a lake before found a tree top under water
I supposedly live on the lake of giants lake chickamauga I’d like to see what you could come up with here!
Looking forward to it. Thanks legend
Ben, I read once that Bass fishermen average 500 cast for each fish caught. If that statement fits you, one thing is for sure,
with the amount of fish you catch, you should really sleep well at night. I think those stats are for the Bass fishermen I see
fishing in my rivers. Great content, love your presentation you provide.
Just for those that don't use all the electronics
If i didn't catch a bass for 500 casts I'd probably retire haha
I would love to link up with you since you're here in Texas and go out on the boat with you for a day and just absorb your knowledge 🔥🔥🔥🤘
You should start chasing the pro circuit! That would be awesome!
Do you use the hover juggle in just winter months or summer too?
You ain’t foolin randy!
This was great!
When you see bass following your glide on LS, what does the size of the mark look like in comparison to the glide?
Can you show footage of bass on LS when you say they are giants, or DD’s?
Would like to get an idea of what size class fish I’m looking at on my LS. I try to use grid lines but my glide usually looks as big or bigger than the followers.
I think the hard reflection of a plastic bait makes it look bigger than a softer fish
@@MJ_Bass that’s been my assumption as well. But have yet to see someone show an example to really validate the theory or really just to understand the size comparison to give some idea what size the fish is relative to the bait.
@@jasoneastwood1191 I think the biggest factor is just time on the livescope. I know I’m certainly not there yet, but when I watch guys who really know what they are doing it’s next level. Just by the shape and behavior of the return, they can tell approximately what the size of the fish is.
Yeah man I made a few videos this last winter recording my livescope and bass following my glides. It takes some time to get a proper judgement of size of those scope fish. Once they start getting 2 "segments" to their bodies, they're usually in that 4-5+ range. My boy Jack York calls em "tail waggers" haha
Awesome video and content Mfer 💥💥🇺🇸🇺🇸
My wife’s a radiographer and swears she can help me with my settings 🤣
I’m pretty sure she might be able to help, especially if she’s a Sonographer. 😎
Are you able to show your screen while you are retrieving? A little side by side action? That would make the video 💯🎣🔥
Sounding like a shimano curado dc. I love mine.
Perfect video, nailed it!!
Would you do a really good 2D video? For guys who don't have forward facing stuff??
How has it took 4 months for me to find this video!
What are you using to weight the hooks on your glide baits
If you're ever in Washington state let me know, I'd love to fish with and learn from the master.
I like all your videos be safe 🇨🇱🇺🇸💪
Waiting on tournament video's I know you gonna kill it
Hey buddy is that swim bait a slow sinker or is it a fast fall???
Loved it great job
On your humminbird units do you always use mega imaging while side scanning or do you use other frequencies depending on depth?
Appreciate the videos you got it so where I hardly throw anything that isn’t 6th sense related lol I’ll be making you tube videos using it very soon
Ben what cranking rod is that do you have a deep diver in your series or do you use something else when you’re throwing the big plugs! I’m looking for something to throw them 25’s
Love this video
Thank you this is great content
Dang it, now I gotta dig my panoptics back out..randy blaukat just told me to throw it away and use a spincaster.. lol
You’re a legend bro
We need some tournament videos please.
finally ...great video
Dosen't Humminbird make a live imaging sonar now? So why have Garmin also?
Brother, this video is ❤🔥❤🔥
Ben, what rod length were you using on the ridge worm? I’m using a 7ft MH; been thinking about investing in a lengthier rod.
I need to practice my down and side scanning so I’m not blind casting the whole time when I try to fish deep
This is the problem with Humminbird. I went from always having lowrance HDS units since the Gen 1. Lowrance shows fish much better. They look bigger and are easier to see on side and down. Humminbird shows structure a little clearer but you have to zoom in to see those fish usually on SI with humminbird. When I switched this year to birds I was surprised how hard they are to see. I could idle around with HDS and easily see fish, then jump up front and cast at them with livescope, and before that using 2d and down. Took a long time to learn to find fish offshore and understand what you are seeing back in the day.Back when you had to learn things on your own before people showed everyone on TH-cam.
What model Garmin is that?
Hey, where did Cole slaw go to?
What gear ratio are you cranking with? 🤔
