I've used both. It's a struggle to see a crappie jig with the bird. Garmin, no problem.

You make everything so complex, something is bound to fail. Multiple connectors, switches, plugs (another connector), etc. I'd take a hard boat with a comfy seat any day...

You have blue and red confused.

Blue Loctite wouldn't prevent you from removing it.

Good luck with the aquaseal. I have a tough enough time getting it to hold on waders. I think I would opt for a replacement.

Run the live off your trolling motor battery, or are you 24V? You may experience interference, you may not, in my experience. The odds of interference is less since it's not on the motor.

Not sure about Humminbird, but Garmin says not to zip-tie the transducer wire to the motor or pole, use electrical tape. Perhaps Humminbird protocol is different.

You broke the shear pin?

I'd rather use my arms to fish. There is probably no perfect solution but 99% of the time I'm glad my livescope is on my TM.

Why wouldn't you just mount on your trolling motor? The only reason I wouldn't is if you use spot lock.

Hopefully the hull doesn't interfere with the SI on that side. I can't tell how low the transducer is riding.

If you want live go with Garmin, there is no substitute. If you are river fishing, electronics will have little value in shallower water.

That I can believe.

Alabama home of the giants. Don't they have some ridiculous buck a day limit or something? Yea, I'm guessing that promotes a great age structure.

I don't have ladder stands. I do hunt from some boxes on green fields. I also hunt in the timber. Georgie boy and I are still waiting on your trophy pics, doubt that's going to happen.... I doubt you know a trophy, seeing you don't know what a sanctuary is. Carry on.....
