93SV
Very happy. I’m sure the bigger ones are better. But, I don’t have a bigger one.

Livescope is an awesome tool to fine tune your presentation and eliminate water. But the best part is to take a kid fishing and let them watch fish react to their presentation. My grandsons will stay on the water all day long and whine when it is time to go home. Most days when the boys are with me I never pick up a pole but it is worth every penny to groom the next generation. Just my 2 cents.
Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional!

I have had a 93sv for a little over a year. It dose the job. I've never had any issues with it. I had it mounted on a ram mount on the floor and with my old eyes it was hard for me to see. I did have some battery issues until ran #10 wire to power the black box. I recently bought a 1242 from Shut up and fish and the screen size makes a world of difference. The 1242 I have isn't a touch screen and I much prefer the knobs and buttons over the touch screen.
Just my opinion!!!! Joe

Very happy with mine but I started out with the 93 and moved up to the 122sv difference of night and day.

Very happy. I’m sure the bigger ones are better. But, I don’t have a bigger one. LOL, same for me. At some point I will update to a bigger screen, but for now I’m loving it.

another good way to get your answer is go on youtube and type in crappie livescope and compare it to crappie humminbird or crappie lowrance. when people (like me) are compelled to put videos together on livescope, it's a strong indicator. I'm not quite ready to tatoo Livescope on by neck yet, but humm..... Let me know what you find. Tim

We just got Livescope for Christmas and we are still learning how to use it. That said we were playing with it yesterday and we are slowly getting it figured out. I got to see my first Crappie hit my jig yesterday with Livescope...it was pretty cool. We were fishing trees on Fork and you will be amazed at how many fish are swimming down below you. We got on this one tree and there must have been a dozen fish swimming around. I dropped my jigs down and I could see myself bouncing my jigs up and down. My Dad saw a dinner plate of a Crappie down by the bottom. My dad says drop your jigs another pull towards the bottom. As I did and was watching the screen that Crappie came flying up at my jig and slammed it. Heck yeah that was pretty cool to watch. We are still messing with settings, but we are slowly figuring it out. I now understand why it's called video gaming for Crappie. Here was my first Livescope Fish. Caught on Fork yesterday in Timber. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/04/full-66568-48573-3cfb940f_d793_4d14_881b_7755bcfecb99.jpeg) It works. We have the 126sv and we are extremely happy with it. We bought ours from theGPSstore.com out of North Carolina with a package deal bundle. We also bought the GT-54UHD Transducer for clear view side view etc and it absolutely blows our Lowrance out of the water. I was going over some trees and saw Crappie sitting in the Tree Tops with the Clear Vu ( Downscan) on Garmin. I pitched a marker. Pitched my jig out and let it swing back towards the boat...Slam! That wasn't even using Livescope that's how good that GT-54 UHD transducer is from Garmin. We have the best of both worlds so to speak with the GT-54UHD and Livescope. Garmin definitely has it going on in my opinion. Good Luck with whatever unit you decide to go with. Tight Lines!

yes very Happy with it, i am not great with it yet, lots to learn, the livescope and how to keep boat in one spot, the learning curve. but have seen fish come up to take the minnow, caught fish because of having it, it a great tool to use, i have the 102 sv screen and gt54 transducer. just need more time on water to get better. and same too as has been said, told my son go deeper or come up with the bait, and he caught fish.

I have the 93, and don't see me ever fishing without it. It's absolutely amazing!
