I put the BEST Fish Finders in the WORLD on my Bass Boat - Here's Why
Спорт
I couldn't decide which Brand to go with so I chose them all! Join me on this journey to figure out what exactly is the best electronics setup you can use to catch more big bass. This year on my 2020 Major League Fishing Pro Tour bass boat I put a Garmin, Humminbird, and a Lowrance on my Bow! Here's a brief explanation why!

This is what fishing videos should be. Super informational and helpful no sponsor driven content. Thank you very much can’t wait for you guys to come back to Winnebago.
Dude caught 70lbs today offshore in the championship round at Eufala. I'd say his set up works, even if it is just purchased confidence.
Awesome work Jacob. Love this idea and really looking forward to hearing your unbiased thoughts on these units moving forward!
You are truly a Great fisherman and a awesome mentor to many of us. I'm 50 years old and enjoy your how to videos tremendously and I been a bass Fisherman since I was knee high to ant butt,lol. It's a great privilege to be able to watch you and your desire to make the sport of bass fishing even better. Kudos to you Jacob and I hope that you reach every benchmark you set. May God Bless You and Your Family and bless you with multiple 20lb sacs. And I want you to win the classic. You seem to have a natural way to win and I bet God's in there. Thank you for the videos Man
Will be interesting to see how they impact your season. Great tools. Thx for the review. Good luck this season!
I appreciate you investing time and money into this series of videos. I am in the process of trying to decide what I'm putting on the console of my boat, these videos should help.
Love how you’re giving honest opinions and feedback. Love your channel.
I look forward to hearing your feedback and the overall experience of the electronics, and I glad you said you bought them all yourself 👍👍💪
This is great Jacob and an awesome idea! Thanks for doing this.
I'll be tuning in to watch you today. Go get em J!
OH.. and I enjoy your channel. Good job and good fishing this year!
Nice! Good luck this year man!
youre gonna LOVE the mega360! its incredible!
very cool … looking forward to this series
I’ve heard a lot of good things about LiveScope! If I had the money I’d give it a shot for sure! I hope your setup does you great this year! Good luck!! 👊🏻
Interesting experiment you’ve committed to.... I can’t remember how to do half of the stuff on my Helix from week to week. You’re a sharp kid, you will do fine. 👌🏽 We’ll be watching. Best of luck Wheels!
Hope to get to see you this weekend at Lake Eufaula!
I wanna see where all those transducers are!! 😂

Nice vid Wheelz! This made me take a look at Garmin. I have been a Humminbird/Lowrance guy for a long time, maybe I will check out Garmin in the future.
J Wheels #1 put the hammer down Eufaula!! Doing what’s never been done👍🏼
What's up Wheels, I use my panoptic to eliminate and area, but you are right about getting caught up on one or two fish you see on the screen. Good luck this year, hope to see ya in N.C. again!
Thanks for the infoon all the units.....
Awesome ! Totally Awesome!
Finally, a pro who has a thought process like mine. I’ve always wondered about doing this, but didn’t have the cash to lay out for more than one or two big units at a time. I keep the mounts flexible so I can have one on the front and one on the back or both up front or at the console. I’m glad it’s you Jacob, and I’m super stoked that you’re not sponsored anywhere because I know I’ll get the real scoop. It’ll be time for me to upgrade soon and I tend to be brand loyal, but seeing how this pans out for you may sway me in one direction or another. Lastly, a question, how do you have all the transducers hooked up? And have you noticed any interference since these units weren’t designed to work specifically with each other?
Thanks for the great video. Comparisons are a great thing as there are many great FF.. Would love to hear/see your idea on icons for waypoints. I have been thinking about a system for a long time. ie icon for season, structure type, sun, temp etc. It is one thing to have an icon, it is another to know it is basketball size rock, a winter time haunt when the sun is shining and a strong wind from the west, etc. See you in Raleigh NC in April!
Thanks for the info. Make sure you do the same videos at the end of the year for your thoughts after getting to use them!
Awesome video 👍
Hello Jacob. Great video as usual. Can you do a video on the install? Where and how you have transducers. I have been wanting to set my boat up like this for a while now.
I have ran Lowrance my whole like switched over to Lowrance hds’s live this year and also am running Hummingbird helix gn3’s. So far hummingbirds have ran away with it for me at the console and bow!
Can't wait to see your evaluations of these three units. Thanks for speaking the truth about everything you review. God Bless.
Does the transducers interfere with each other at all?
I guess us old hands have the advantage of locating fish with experience and these little Ole video game graphs going to help us out even more over the whipper snappers
This is great
J Wheels is killin it on Day 1! Putting these 3 brands to work! Thata boy! Tied for first in the first period, them Lane boys better watch out for cause wheeler gonna steal that title!
Jacob can you show how your transducers for the lowance and humminbird is install on the boat for the console side scan? Thanks in advance...
Good video, information and tips Jacob 💯💯👍 #HometownGuy
I have been thinking about doing this u should show how your going to set up the live scope transducer with the 360 because I’m worried about how it will inter fear
I’m waiting to see the graphic details on all three bow models - especially the mega 360 in water 5’ or less.
Sick setup! Would love a video in the future comparing the 360 to the LiveScope and how/when each one shines.

I have the mega 360 and also a livescope with the 16 in screen the only reason I have the 360 is to find the cover that the fish are on and once I find that I never take my eyes off of the livescope. If I had to choose to only have one I would choose the livescope all day long.

Live scope is a game changer and your right, you will get caught up on getting them to bite.
Have seen some wicked Topwater footage on the live score which I’m sure you have as well. May come in handy for frogging our buzz bait fish and seeing them follow our hang back, helping to dial in the right retrieve 👌🏾

What is your battery setup on your boat?
Any idea how he got his trolling motor cable oriented the way it is? I have the same setup with two large depth finders in the center of the boat and the cable hangs up when I put the trolling motor in and out of the water. Looks as though his cable has been adjusted so that it's sticks straight up in the air and eliminate this problem.
And we'll call it "the mutt setup" little bit of everything. Lol
Comment 1 Woo get em this year Wheeler!
Hi Jacob! Can you share your thoughts on water clarity and color of lure and how you match the two? Thank! Stephen James
I fished with a gentleman running a live scope. He would callout his bites seconds before they hit. He never said "here we go" without setting the hook soon after. I want one SO BAD!
That slim tab on top and bottom of the Garmin unit should have cane with clip on tabs to give that entire front screen a flush clean look. The way it sits right now without those tabs clipped on is for flush mounting
JW, I have a question. I've been bass fishing for at least 40 years now. I came up in South Florida where deep lakes where non-existent. I crush em up shallow between froggin, flippin, etc. The problem I'm having is I moved to Northern Florida and it's lake central. I can beat the banks and catch fish, but I just experienced my first winter and the fishing is tough due to they went deep and I'm weak in this game. Now I've always owned a bass boat but I've basically never used a fish finder on them because I didn't have to. What can you suggest I purchase(electronics) for the boat to make me more effective for deep water applications? Any input would be awesome. Thanks
I’m just waiting for the graph to come out where I can see the fish’s birthmark. I love J Wheel tho!
If you get a chance please make a video with the Garmin in a shallow cypress tree lake situation.
How do u set up the transducers with that many units
Does having multiple transducers too close to each other screw up the image
Have you run the Garmin live with the target trails on? Way cool !!
Please show your transducer setup once you get the 360 mounted.
Are you using only the ultrex universal transducer up front for both the Humminbird and the Lowrance?
Do you get any interference between all those?
Two questions: Are you running all three units off the same battery? Where are the three tranducers located? Love your channel!
Hey Jason - How do you deal with the interference issue with all those transducers. Interference is the reason I want to change up my system to reduce the number of required transducer.

The Humminbird 360 at 1175 kilohertz and the Garmin Panoptics at 1100 kilohertz on an Ultrex targeting fish in shallow water (50' or less) will be using similar frequencies so how do I avoid a conflict?
Still the best! I’ll take any leftovers.. hahaha
Am I the only one who’d be interested in seeing all of these pro’s in a tourney where electronics are prohibited ?

Nobody: Panoptix
What a guy needs is two boats to use at the same time, one to carry 87 fishing rods and the other to carry 21 different sonars, tie the boats together then flip a coin to decide which boat to stand in. No pun intended guy's it's just crazy.
How much power are all those electronics putting out... all those batteries have to be weighing down the boat lol
I would actually start watching fishing tournaments if and only if they'd have a section of the competition reserved for where the competitors smash their fish finders that failed "when it really matters".
5:55 I did this after I got my Livescope. I spent way too much time on crappie that wouldn't bite. I discovered that I was better off just locating the fish and then fishing that area without watching the screen so much. I'm still developing my skills with it though.
How come nobody’s talking about Furuno Fish Finders? They’re supposed to be one of the, if not THE best.
i would pay big money to have your saved way points xD
I never used electronics before
nice fish finders, I have one that is only 199 dollars
I thought you were sponsored by lowrance?
A LoGarBird setup
Don't discount the live scope in shallow water, I have seen other pros catch majority of there fish off it in a tournament.
Find a crappie guy that is tournament serious and let him show you how to use that livescope setup.

@@heathfitzgerald363 it depends on what you are doing. I spend many hours with all of them doing installs and training but on my personal boat I have two Solix on the console for imaging and one small helix for maps. Up front I have Helix 12 and Mega 360 with Livescope. Livescope isn't the tool for general bass fishing as the 360 (both models) are much more useful for fishing weed edges, creek channels, individual stumps, and anything that needs to be presented to without having to scan. My livescope is for winter crappie fishing when, like you, I am looking for individual fish. My comment comes from generally knowing, and working with, some very serious tournament guys in all sports. It's safe to say that crappie tournament fisherman know more about the livescope than any of them because that is the main tool they use now.
2020: Bass boats have more electronics than small planes.
