Garmin's NEWEST LIVESCOPE Sonar System test whilst Deep Sea Shark fishing | The Fish Locker

- When I bought my new boat last year I kitted it out with Garmin electronics. GPS, Echo sounder, VHS and Livecope scanning system. Today I am joined by 2 ambassadors from Garmin to trial their newest version of Livescanning sonar and unit - to see if it could help me to make better videos. This was the first time I had used the equipment so you learn as I do. I decided we would try it out shark fishing.

Garmin has changed the ice fishing world so much that its hard not to find fish with it. Great electronics from them!
Incredible what you can do now isn’t it. 🤯
Awesome video mate! That's some fancy tech 😎 Good effort and well done on all you are achieving on the channel! Going from strength to strength 💪
Just trying to keep it current and interesting whilst sticking to the promises we set out with. Simple, honest and original content.
John, I must say, that live footage from the Garmin is brilliant! The first video of your line dropping in, and the mackies going straight for it was stunning.
It is incredible isn’t it!!!
I think the footage recorded for the garmin is great. Really helps to show us where the fish swim at different depths. Crazy it picks up the sabiki rig and shows the mackerel darting towards it. Would love to try this on a carp lake to understand where the carp hang out. Thanks for the great content. It’s great to see your channel grow and grow.
That would be amazing wouldn’t it!!!
What a fantastic video 2 blue sharks tagged and the amazing live screen images from the garmin was fantastic. A great learning session for you
Every days a school day. 😊👍🏻🦈
@@TheFishLocker so true never stop learning
That's a brilliant new piece of kit, I couldn't believe the details on that boat with the pots on at the end, you could see the bow n wheel house and the fish. AMAZING 👏
Incredible wasn’t it
Mind - BLOWN!
That system is incredible!
Crazy isn’t it!!
Amazing watching all the different fish being picked up on screen. It will be interesting to watch the footage incorporated into your vids.
Thanks for the upload John.
For now the unit is still on loan, if the weather allows I will do more footage for the videos. 👍🏻
That was incredible John. Thank you Garmin for such a wonderful experience! The detail was incredible! I hope you are able to incorporate this technology into 'what you do' John. Fabulous video my friend - as always. My Best wishes to to all the family.
I have got it on loan for a little longer and I will have to work out if I can justify it. But it is incredible.
Thats a cracking bit of kit that! The definition is unbelievable even at serious depth aswell! Its amazing seeing how the fish react to the sabikis literally the minute they hit the water! Nice couple of blues aswell, they really are a stunning fish! Great job as always! 🎣🎣🎣
Watching the fish react to your lures is incredible isn’t it!!!
@@TheFishLocker its crazy how fast they react, just shows its dog eat dog down there!
Now it all makes sense mate 👍
Thanks for the fantastic video. I find my self glued to your channel.
I am glad that you found the video understandable mate, I always worry that what I’m doing and saying will go over peoples heads.
Wow, that’s incredible. What an amazing bit of kit. Very jealous!

Thank you Glynn, glad you enjoyed the video mate. 👍🏻
I thoroughly enjoyed that, John. Thank you.

Excellent show, that new tech is fascinating and definitely adds a new dimension to your videos.👌👍
The only setback is I find myself getting totally distracted by watching the screen haha. It’s like a video game!!!
Impressive setup, great to have a couple of experts on board too give all the ins and outs.
Absolutely. That cut down my learning curve with the setup and operation by loads.
Yet again first class video. Thank you.
My pleasure David. 😊
Another stellar video and congratulations on the new gear!
Thanks Pete, it’s just on loan atm, but it’s great gear. 👍🏻

That technology is amazing, its really giving good detail these days, its incredible and only going to get better. being able to understand and interpret what you are seeing is where the skill comes in though and you explained it to us very well, great catch on the sharks too, love them blue sharks, very elegant fish. very impressive video John

Absolutely fascinating John , when I’m due to upgrade I’ll definitely be looking at this , many thanks again 🎣
My pleasure Cliff. 😊👍🏻
Great video John you are such a natural in front of the camera 👍👍
Haha. Not sure about that. 🤣
That is a real pea-souper fog! Just as I get my new sonar set up another one comes out! They have come on amazingly though, the detail you can now see is amazing. Nice video matey.
Absolutely incredible to advances they keep making year on year isn’t it!!!
Watched most of ur shoreline beach catch and cooks bout couple years back and then stopped, lately i've been watching fishing vids again and saw ur vid pop up... Brother im happy ur still uploading
We haven’t missed a weekly upload in 3 years mate
Amazing tech advances helping the future of fishing. Tag and release 👍🏻 cracking video John
Thanks Ian. 😊👍🏻🦈
Good angling sir. Always good to see you upload mate 👍
Thank you 😊👍🏻
Fantastic video John and looks like we will be seeing more fish come on board in the future 👍
Hopefully!!!
Thanks bud, that was really interesting.
Amazing tech there!
Glad you enjoyed the video Richie. 👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker I always do!
You post some great content and it always reminds me of what I used to before becoming disabled. Thanks again
Brilliant film john
Thank you.
Awesome piece of kit that bud - game changer for your fishing and hopefully no more blank days 😊
I don’t have blank days anyway. 🤣
A fascinating watch. Loving your efforts, thankyou.
My prayer mate.
@@TheFishLocker I like that even more :)
Brilliant work guys&girls …😊👍
Thank you very much. 👍🏻👍🏻
Eh up John and Oh My God, that is a smashing piece of equipment and I'm no fisherman. It really brings what's below the boat into clarity and from there you can cherry pick what line, bait and depth you need to fish.
Really really interesting and again from a non fisherman xxxx
Keep Safe and love to all the family!
It was incredible. I could not believe the detail of it!!
The tech stuff is great. It's the human interaction with nature and the elements that bring me back. 🇺🇸
I was catching big fish before I had any electronics. 😉
Lovely bit of kit 👍
Amazing isn’t it!!!
Everything crystal clear, amazing technology, thank you for sharing with us 👍👍
Another great video awesome 👏👍🏻
Thanks Craig. 😊👍🏻
Fantastic Vid loved it right through
Glad you enjoyed it John. 😊
Very nice. Almost as good as what I worked on in the Navy. Good definition.
Also, nice editing job.
The advances that are being made in the recreational market are astounding arent they!!
Superb,thanks John
My pleasure. 👍🏻
That's a really cool bit of kit
Brilliant isn’t it!!!
Yeah my mate has a boat moored in the Tyne going to send him the video
John is brilliant video🙂👍
Thank you. 😊👍🏻
Absolutely love mine! The phone app allows you to palm routes at home and connects as soon as you get on the boat! Great example of what it does!
This day was really interesting for me and I still feel I have barely scratched the surface of what is possible.
Amazing blue sharks John it's nice to see you doing your bit for fish conservation
I always try to do my part. 👍🏻🦈
That is definitely without question John I cannot wait until your next videos are released especially the foraging ones ,as you know autumn is apon us so what is on the the schedule for this season? Regards Ken.
Thanks for video! It was very interesting.
My pleasure Stu.
Great video, well done Garmin too
Thanks mate. 👍🏻
Amazing John 👌💯❤️
Thanks mate. 👍🏻🎣
Another great video. 😲👍👏
That was amazing. 🫣Everything so clear and, as you said, having someone there to help you learn how it works.👍👍
Some nice fish too. Those sharks were stunning.🦈🦈
Always a good watch.👍
Thanks, take care and stay safe.😷🙊
Thanks mate. 👍🏻🎣🦈
John, you never fail. Needed this on a beautiful Florida morning. Thak you. Hopefully one day our paths will cross.
If they do be sure to stop us and say hello. 👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker I most definitely will.
That live time Garmin is what Adventures with Purpose uses to locate cars. Great piece of equipment.
Someone else has mentioned them, I’ll have to give them a look. 👍🏻
Superb vid John. Its hard trying to keep up with the fast moving times. I've already bought a new Garmin fish finder, now i want to change it. Lol 😆. Just keep those awesome videos coming. Tight lines. 👍
Haha. I’m not one to buy the newest flashy thing. I want something practical that I can use for years. Go with the budget you can justify. 😊👍🏻
The nice people from garmin must have enjoyed a day out with you 😊👍🏽
I hope so. It wasn’t the best day at sea but I found it really interesting. 👍🏻
Mate that was briliant really enjoyed that. Was great to see in detail what goes on down there. The bit with the sabiki and watching the fish swim towards it. And the wreck at the end. Briliant mate really enjoyed that. Thanks for sharing tight lines 🎣🎣🎣
I thought it was fascinating mate. So much detail in everything!!!
@@TheFishLocker yea mate was awesome amazing what technology can do look forward to seeing more of this In your videos. 🎣🎣
@@l.r.sfishing4011 - At the minute it’s still on loan. I need to decide wether I can use it enough to justify it.
@@TheFishLocker yea i bet they got a nice price tag. Well what ever you do mate your videos will always be top class 🎣🎣🎣
Interesting film. Amazing what technology can do nowadays.
Incredible what is available isn’t it!!
man oh man love it ur living my dream lol i so need to start knocking some stuff of my bucket list including shark fishing love your caring of the creatures an fully explaining bylaws etc so informative thanks muchly mate and defo no bananas :)
Haha. Bananas are a big NO NO on a boat!!
great video pal
Cheers Graham.
How good is that footage . I want one now👍
Haha. Pretty incredible isn’t it!!!
@@TheFishLocker I recently bought a hook reveal 9 John but I'm disappointed that I can't get relief shading on it? Have to be nice to the Mrs and see what Santa gets me🤔
Just brilliant ,technology now a days is just brilliant ,I think you will be catching more and more PB John with that new piece of kit 👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻
The thing I believe this will help with is finding the baitfish super quick and fishing to features.
As an avid sea fishing enthusiast,
John is brilliant and I love every video he posts , great video again this is what I want to do in retirement minus the you tube channel …..😊 keep it up
That is a fine retirement plan Mark. Good luck to you mate. 😊👍🏻🎣
JOHN! This new equipment means you can now see your pots! (Especially when they get hung up) that's awesome!
On a flat day you can even see the different parts of the pots frame!!
Just about go fishing too before your video pop up. Another good video!
Good luck when you go. 😊👍🏻🎣
What a truly amazing piece of equipment, no more fishing where there aren't any fish. Its unbelievable that you can actually see individual fish and watch them taking the bait, they really hone into it don't they? How I wish that we'd had such things back in the 50s and 60s when I did most of my fishing probably over a barron patch of seabed!
That’s it is it, this not only shows you where they are. But absolute where they aren’t!!!
That’s really cool!
Incredible isn’t it!!!
Awsome vid....very nice!
Thank you. 👍🏻
Nice one interesting to see how the set up works. I was surprised you could see the bait going down for the mackerel. Even the air wow. Nice sharks. Amazing what you can see with that scope.
Cheers.
The detail on it was incredible. I was shocked.
John - When you have the bait cloud suspended just below the boat @ 05:45, I was entranced. We would make a great team as I'm happy just catching bait on Sabiki rigs and watching you do your thing. Tight lines!
Haha. I took Jim out to show him and he said it was almost like watching a video game.
That is.mad john awesome peace of kit 😎👍💪
Incredible isn’t it!!!
the fish locked uploading again 😍
Every Sunday without fail. Also managing to do bonus uploads every Wednesday. 😊👍🏻
Great informative video again John, The Garmin XR looks to be a total game changer.
( I just need to save up for one to fit in the Charter boat now)
There’s a few different types to suit different uses.
@@TheFishLocker I will seriously have to look into them for next season. 👍
Fascinating video John, if you look at the seal coming up, you can see its tail moving, this is going to make your fishing very interesting 😎🎣
It’s incredible isn’t it the detail you can get!!
Amazing footage great livescope John maybe looking onto getting 1
I hope the video was helpful in making your decision. 👍🏻😉🎣
Excellent all, amazing and many thanks most interestimg ..
Our pleasure Trig.
Wow very cool, it might be time for an early Christmas present to myself 🙂
Go on, treat yourself. 😉👍🏻
That sonar is amazing, good job the guy with "the fruit" didn't whistle as well !! 👍
I could have lashed them there and then. 🤣🤣🤣
Nice! Someone also got a new camera!!
No mate. Same camera as always.
Boys and there toys John 😎, great new piece of tech mate, the enhancement on this unit is incredible, making fishing a doddle 🤣🤣🤣if only eh! But certainly helping identify more of what your traveling over. nice tag and release bud🎣appreciate your efforts 👍🏼👍🏼
Haha. Yes mate. If only!!
That’s a nice bit of kit. I’m a Garmin man myself
Good choice. 👍🏻
Nice tech, even i could see what was happening on screen so that is something 😀
Amazing isn’t it!!
Garmin is good stuff, been in my car for years lol! Congrats!
They are solid in the market aren’t they. Really good quality.
It would be cool to see you bringing your pots up
I will do some footage when we have calm weather. 👍🏻
I’m really liking the live scope.
Incredible piece of kit isn’t it!!
John, considering The Fishlocker is the best and most watchable and entertaining fishing and outdoor channel on the tube you could certainly justify having that piece of kit on your boat. I guess they are not cheap but considering the effort you put in plus showing how good it is I am surprised Garmin dont let you keep it or at least come to some arrangement on price.
Currently it is still on loan. We will see what happens. 😉👍🏻
What will be amazing John is seeing Dolphins and maybe Tuna pass under the boat, they are big lumps so should be spectacular, cant wait to see that 🙂
Very interesting video John. Thanks for sharing your testing of the new Garmin system, it certainly looks to this 'dumb' guy that it would be very useful to you. Among the various species that you encountered it made your day to land & tag 2 sharks. Well done mate & very educational, happy days ahead! Cheers to all, Don from South Aust.
Thank you Don and have a wonderful day my friend.
Great to see the livescope being used in deep water situations, most of the video's I've seen are from bass fishermen in the US in about 12ft lakes,
Haha. Yeah where you can literally see the bottom already. 🤣
I've never heard of bananas being unlucky before now. My dad who was from a fishing family knew loads of them and would never allow himself to fall foul of them. Being a young boy at the time I didn't know and was chastised a few times for bringing bad luck. Two that spring to mind was counting how many fish we'd caught before we'd finishing as this apparently ensures you catch no more and the other was to whistle as this whistles up the wind and not good in a small rowing boat a good way out.
Whistling is a BIG one. Haha.
Impressive gear from Garmin. Often thought previously the gear you use a little over my head. What I've seen in the video gave me an far easier perspective. Can't see any negatives with it, only hope it benefits you.
(No more blanks lol)
Very interesting video, thanks John👍
Haha. What dilemma I have now is to work out wether I can use the systems in enough scenarios to justify the expense. 🤷🏻♂️
@@TheFishLocker pity they can’t give you one over a few month period to try out. Excellent advertising for them, and free😉
Mad technology and such an asset for boat fishing. I had a fish finder in my kayak but actually didn't personally like it. But that was probably don't to my lack of knowledge. Sold the kayak along with it now.
That’s a big part of it mate. You can have all the kit in the world but if you can’t use it in a way that suits your fishing you might as well not have it. 👍🏻
Stunning bit of kit that Garmin. I was gonna buy a new Lowrance item, but I quite like this Garmin unit 🤔
I’d definitely give this some consideration.
