I'm liking that, liking it a lot..... This just opened an entirely new opportunity. Shallow water capability for largemouth under docks, but even more exciting is shallow water redfish and trout in the saltwater....

I got the update, and plan to fabricate a bracket similar to one described over on BBC. Looks easy if you are on a seperate pole. http://www.bbcboards.net/showthread.php?t=1036832&page=5

Kudos to garmin. some recent college graduate engineer came up with a bracket and the software guys made a few code changes. now they can get a few more years out of livescope sales. $1300 looks like a bargain!
agree with others that the bass guys will be interested. and like the idea for shallow redfish. not sure how far the range will really be in shallow saltwater.
the only downside i see is the transducer has to be manually rotated.

They know you want something you can change on the fly. They sell this model for the first 6 months to every inpatient fisherman with the money and most without and then come out with a transducer you don't have to move. Its called making money or what they refer to as good business.

Wow is all I can say just Garmin with another home run. I'm so dang excited about this... They've hit a homerun while leading 14-2 in the 9th inning. Oh, and there's even a walmart $5 solution for those who have a separate xducer pole. This was posted by somebody on the LVS tips and DIY site. Yeah yeah, I know there's the $99 bracket, but this doesn't require tools to rotate. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Adjustab...dRXL49hrH0bvJlTqvPWLy03jcaCsEwydXXVjiH0Y

On the new mount is it just turn it sideways gangster mode just like going from forward to down or do you have to loosen the bolt? I keep getting software system download error on my active captain. How do you know if you have the most recent update with perspective mode?
