That was one of the best if not the best live scope video I've ever seen.👍 Great job.....
Thanks so much Norm!!
This one and my very first video are probably my two that I'm most proud of so far.
@@HighQualityFishingVideos well it's definitely a good one. I subscribed as well and I'm going to watch your others. I'm looking to get into life scope I actually tried it out for the first time last Saturday and had a absolute ball. Super fun. I've already been working on Mama trying to convince her to let me get one. Lol have a good one I'll be watching.
I love that you focus on the livescope screen.
Thanks Danny! I'll always try to focus on the fishing techniques and tech!
@@HighQualityFishingVideos I feel like I'm fishing with you. I'm hoping to get a livescope system in the near future 🙏
@@dannygreen6145 That is so great to hear Danny. Part of the reason I started making these was I have some family in a nursing facility as of this fall and they're always wanting to know/see how I'm catching so many fish. I was hoping to make these so that they had as close to an "in-the-boat" feel as I could get for them.
If you get a livescope it'll be the best/worst thing ever because it's all you're gonna think about afterwards!! I had to save up for about six months to afford it (literally paid more for livescope than I did my whole boat) but I've been having a lot of fun with it!
I crappie fish with Livescope multiple times a week. Even so, I love watching high quality Livescope videos when I have free time at home. I find it interesting to watch jig presentations and crappie reactions as lakes seem to have differing fish catching personalities.
Thank you msray!
I'm hoping to get out on the water a few days this week and make some more videos! Have been trying to wait on the weather to cooperate, but might just have to go fight the wind!
Great video! Really enjoyed the footage.
Thanks so much Mark!
Nice video, very relaxing to watch. Thanks!!
Thanks Jeff! I am so glad you said that, exactly the kind of video I was going for! *Sorry for the jackhammer noise at some parts of this video, a lake house nearby was under construction a quarter mile away and that sound was traveling over the water like I was right beside it!
I enjoy the livescope footage
Thanks Arrigo!
Great Video. Thank you for the great content. I look forward to the next video.
Thanks Pete! I'm heading out fishing in the morning and hopefully have another video edited soon!
Nice footage fella. I like how you focus on the scope; good narration.
Thank you John!
Great video. Your Live scope view was awesome.
Thanks so much Craig!
Best one I've seen ! Great job
Thanks so much Randy!
I went out today and caught a bunch again but cameras messed up I guess and don't have but a few minutes of footage. I'll just have to go out and catch a bunch again I guess hahaha!
Dang the bad luck 😆
Nice winter vid with lake water temps in the low 40's :) You're right, it's hard to get someone to go out with you when it's cold!! I really enjoy your vids cuz no one else captures that much detail. You re-enforce so much of what I've experienced and wondered if I was doing something wrong. I love it when fish chase the jig and thump it but sometimes they'll chase it almost all the way up the water column and just drop off for no apparent reason. You've convinced me to practice and perfect the pitch cuz once you are in the beam, you can target multiple fish along the way back. Good stuff man!!
Love your content!
Thank you John! I really appreciate it.
I'm having fun making these so plenty more to come! Might break out my bass rod soon and try to get some of those on this type of video....although I haven't quite figured out how I'll get good shots of those since they move so much!
Great video and i truly enjoy watching you work with your LS, i normally can't get a fish to bite if if follows more than 4-6feet.
Thanks Danny!
Same thing here man!!! I've only got like a 10-15% hookup rate if they follow more than 5 feet or so.
Next trip out I'm gonna try to maintain depth but move left or right. Every trip I try something different with those types to see if I can get anything to increase the hookups, but so far nothing has.
It’s so cool to watch the fish react to your jig, whether they just turn and look, follow for 20 feet, or slam it as soon as it gets near them it’s very interesting to see. Great videos, you got my sub
Thank you Thump! Man it's so neat seeing these fish under the water! I've been imagining what was going on under me for years and now finally getting to see it is amazing. Now if I can just get a few more days where the wind is 15mph!
Great videos buddy. Best on yourube
Thanks so much Joel!
Absolutely the best Livescope videos I have seen. I am learning a lot from watching your Livescope videos. Keep them coming please. It would be nice to know what jigs you are using.
Thanks Pilot! I keep trying to remember to get my jigs out and put pictures in the videos but never do. I WILL do that for the next videos although the next one will probably be bass/hybrid fishing.
The first half of this video I fished with a 1/16th oz hair jig: pink head, silver middle, and chartreuse tail * I buy these locally at a tackle shop, no brand name on the packages that I can remember
The second half of the video and what is one of my favorite go-to baits is from a company called BigBiteBaits and they have a selection of 1.5 inch plastics called "Panfish Minnow". I like any of those but especially the colors where the body is one color and the tail is chartreuse. Generally pair that with a pink 1/16th oz jig head.
What size pole you using to cast with, great videos I fish Darbonne a lot , that place is full of any size crappie you want, what size screen u have and transducer, I love that green color screen
@@tommypierce8887 Thanks Tommy! I have been using a Berkley 8ft trout rod more and more as my go-to rod for casting/pitching on crappie. Lake Darbonne is amazing! This is the LVS34 and GPSMap1022 (10-inch).
FYI, some of the ones that are spooking are because you are hitting them with the jig. Still a nice video!
Thanks for watching Marcus!
It's a bit misleading the way I have to edit these makes it so yall cant always see me taking 3-4 slow passes over the fish before I get more aggressive but I promise I always try a more subtle approach first on the good fish!
@@HighQualityFishingVideos that makes more sense! 😂 I’m not far from you, grew up close to Claiborne. Mainly fish it and Bistineau.
@@mwhLA1986 Oh man, Claiborne is my favorite lake around here! Beautiful scenery and those hybrids in there fight like crazy!
So do you actually utilize the whole entire screen? Also I would love a livescope settings video with tips and tricks.
I fish deep lakes like this and it’s just so hard with my LS to differentiate between big crappie and small crappie, they all look the same lol.
Jonny thanks for watching! I definitely use as much of the screen as I can all the time. On Darbonne I generally fish 40ft out simply because there are so many fish everywhere that I don't really have to look further than that. But on other places, like in my Lake Claiborne video, I look way further out and much deeper when searching for the fish.
As far as sizing them goes I love the grid lines. I can look up and think "well that fish is a little over 1/5th of the width of the 5ft rectangle so he's probably a little over 12 inches".
Now in really deep water it's tougher to size them, if you watch that Lake Claiborne video from a few weeks back I caught a few crappie in 45ft of water in that one. Very hard to differ between a 9inch/12inch fish at that depth!
@@HighQualityFishingVideos Right! Also probably doesn’t help as much that I’m still on a 106sv screen.
Great videos! I'm new to livescope amd the Helm feature. What are you using to record yourself while you fish, and what doe it take to add it to the livescope helm recording?
Very much enjoy your videos and love the format. I live on Darbonne Lake and got my LS setup last August and it is addictive. I use 10 lb Sniper braid with a 6 lb clear leader on a loop knot. Do you use any type of leader or tie directly to the braid? Leaders are a little bit of a hassle and wonder if you think they make a difference on Darbonne. Thanks and hope to see you on the lake.
Thanks so much Steve!
On Darbonne I just tie directly to the jig with the braid and can't usually notice a difference in the fish behavior. Now on Claiborne or Caney, I will use a leader and have noticed a difference in their behavior there because of the clear water. They did that thing where they followed it but didn't bite way more often without a leader in the clearer water.
I was out there again yesterday and caught a bunch in the cold! Left out from the Stowe Creek ramp and fished within a few hundred yards of the channel markers where it drops down to 17-20ft. I brought my camera stuff to make another video but it looks like the recordings didn't work correctly. Aw shucks, I guess I'll just have to go fishing again soon, hahaha!
Great Livescope Screen Clarity. Are you using a Garmin 93sv, 106sv, or the Giant 126sv Ultra for your Livescope footage? Thank you.
Hey Santiago, thanks so much! This is the GPSMap1022 paired with the LVS34.
Great vid, can you share the lake you’re fishing
Thanks Keith! This is Lake Darbonne in Northeast Louisiana.
Nice fish my friend. I went here on Friday and the location I was at in the main lake, the fish where in 30-40 feet and had lock jaw. I tried hand ties and plastics and no luck. I had only three or four followers and two very lite ticks to the end of the jig. Never caught one fish. Water temp was 42-43 degrees. The below zero temps in the last week made the bite very tough. I see your out in your Tracker, nice video. I see you use the grid on your graph. I may try it just to see if it helps me to distinguish the size.
Thanks James!
Man that freeze last week was brutal! Do you ever try live minnows or small shad as bait when they get like that? I've had days like that in the summers where I'd start fishing at 7am and it would be noon with no fish in the cooler even though I KNEW they were on the brush piles because I'd just scanned it with side-scan. Then I'd break out my cast net to get some minnows and immediately start catching fish. Might only get 5 or 6 fish that day but it's saved me from getting skunked on a few occasions.
*I don't know if netting bait is even an option in every state, anybody else reading this be sure to check your local regulations first and don't wind up getting a ticket following my Louisiana methods!
@@HighQualityFishingVideos yes Sir I have in other times tried live minnows and they still would not hit the live bait as well.
This past Thursday I made trip to Wallmart all the way in Mount Sterling just to purchase one of those plastic three rod holders (like it) and to get some of those bait-alive 1” and I purchased some those petrified minnows in a jar as well. I tried those Friday and they would not hit either. I have used crappie nibbles as well and have done well with those. I had even tried those Friday as well. I tried five different schools within the same area. It had been so cold that the river was iced over. Trying again in the morning very early. We are off work tomorrow. Hard to purchase minnows here after November. I usually catch my own here in the creeks. I am gonna get me one them cast nets soon.
@@fuzzyfultz Good luck tomorrow James!
@@HighQualityFishingVideos well I limited out today, 20 fish. Took me while get them figured out. 30-32 feet water. Water was 38-39 degrees. I left at the brake daylight and got home late evening dark thirty. 1/64 oz with a split shot. Had a really good time.
@@fuzzyfultz I was actually wondering earlier today how you were doing up there on the water today. Sounds like it was a great day! Good job James!
Is that the 32 or 34?
Settings seem spot on !!!
Never mind
I see it’s the plus now
@@natureboyfishing4380 Thanks Nature! It's the 34, if you get one make sure to HEAVILY insulate any splices and solder the splice points. I've seen a few friends that I can't get theirs to be as clear but I have a feeling the wiring is the issue.
Funny how Darbonne landed on 7 as the magic max number. Just happens to be the number allowed by the big tournaments.
I think you're exactly right on the reason they kept it at 7 so that it wouldn't have a negative impact on the tournaments.
I'm just hoping the silver carp from Bayou Darbonne don't wind up in the lake. Have heard plenty of very bad stuff about what happens to game fish numbers in lakes once that happens.....
@@HighQualityFishingVideos YES!! I have seen some monsters below the spillway. Definitely makes you pay attention in a kayak!! Haha.
@@stacylolley haha, I bet it does!
That rule of 7 is for the tournament fisherman all the way. Has no ecological impact of the lake. IDE rather Texas law. Keep everything over 10”. They have some great fishing on those lakes …. The lake is creek fed. Wish they would have went limit 25 and anything over 10”. My 2 cents that won’t matter ….
who's running that Jack hammer in the back ground
HAHAHA, Ronnie I kept saying to myself that day "great, I get my microphone issues worked out and wind up finding fish near a construction site!"
Enjoy your vids. What length rod are you using.
Thanks Dan! On the day I made this video I was using an 8ft Berkley trout rod. I've got two of those and have been using them more over my 12 ft rods because I have a bit more finesse control to twitch the jigs just how I want to.
Are u a braid guy
Hey Richard, thanks for watching! I'd say I'm a reluctant braid guy. It's very nice to have the line strength to straighten the hooks when you get snagged and retrieve a jig.
Generally on days where the wind is less than 5mph I use braid but on days with more wind I switch out to mono or fluoro/mono blends to avoid the tangles.
Nice!!
Wha boat mount are you
Using for your pole??
CM
Hey CrappieMike, thanks so much glad you liked the video!
I actually made the mount with a piece of pressure-treated lumber and two C-Clamps. I made a little 4 minute video showing my whole livescope setup here if you're interested in mirroring parts of it (I'm particularly proud of the mount and my extending handle!):

What update version are you running on the 34? I still get stiching on my 34.
David I'm not sure what version it is but I'll check it out and get back to you. I haven't updated it since I purchased it but will get the version # and put it in here.
What is that noise on your boat
Thanks for watching Curley! That was a jackhammer that was about 1/4th mile away working at one of the camps nearby. Finally got my microphone issues worked out only to have all that in the background, hahaha
What trolling motor do you have?
Hey Texas, I use the Minn Kota Terrova on both of the boats. 55lb model on the basstracker and the 80lb on the pontoon boat.
Do you use an anchor or a spot lock trolling motor to stay in position?
Hey T Leb, thanks for watching the new video!
I'm using spot lock to stay in place.
What color jig and plastic are you using ?
Hey Patriot, thanks for watching!
The first half of this video I fished with a 1/16th oz hair jig: pink head, silver middle, and chartreuse tail * I buy these locally at a tackle shop, no brand name on the packages that I can remember

@@HighQualityFishingVideos thanks a bunch
Which garmin unit do you have?
Hey Jerry, this is the LVS34 transducer paired with the GPSMap1022.
Brother as soon as I saw that fish at the 6 Minute Mark at the top of that tree and you went for the bottom one I was screaming at the monitor... I was like BRUH!!!!!!!! DATZ A HUGE CRAPPIE AT THE TOP OF THAT TREE... CATCH HIM!!!!!!!!! Great Job.... Always remember, if you are zoomed out at 40ft the Livescope Grid Squares are 5 Feet. So when you see a mark that is less than half the size of that Grid Square. DROPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP! When you Zoom down to 30ft the Grid Squares drop down to 2Feet. The largest Crappie ever caught was 21 inches so if it's less than the size of that 2 Foot Grid Square where you can gauge at it's at least 18 inches or less... Ummmm.. 🙄 D R O PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤝👍
Hahaha, I definitely almost messed that up!!! I didn't show it in the video because it was like 2 mins before, but when I first eased into this spot I thought I saw the top fish stretch way out and it looked long like a catfish. What I think I must have seen was another fish next to him when I first pulled in or some weird angle. So glad he stuck around - that's still my PB crappie!
@@HighQualityFishingVideos 😆👍
Excellent videos dude. Please keep them coming. They get me through the week when I’m waiting on the weekend haha! If you’re out there in the next couple weeks and see a blue pontoon around Stowe creek stop by and say hi.
Thanks a ton Austin! I will do it, you'll know it's me cause it'll be the oldest boat on the lake pulling up to say hey! hahaha!
What garming unit are you using??
Hey 1010, this is the LVS34 and the GPSMap1022. Thanks for watching!
