Just by looking @ your setup transducer looks tilted to much....turn your TVG off will help a lot seeing your lure, back your gain back to around 72%....I run mine on the other side of the TM where it runs flat to me gets a better pic. You will have a ghost tree if you want your setting to be right and video fish.

Been using Live scope for 6 weeks or so and I have gotten to where I can finally get a few decent images. Here is one from yesterday, ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/01/full-72311-82562-142752678_883880478843355_2139006135275765905_n.jpg)

Your gain is too high.
Why is your ducer so high? Mines 2” above the motor when I had it on the shaft. Now it’s on the side of my motor.

Is it better to mount the transducer on the shaft or the barrel of the trolling motor? Also, are there any guides or anyone knowledgeable with the Livescope units around Conroe that may be able to help me get it dialed in?

I can help you right here.
It’s not better lower but you can’t raise your motor up like you have it for shallow water.
Set the gain between 60-74 manually set the depth. Set your range at 35 at first if your having trouble see your bait. Throw a spinner bait or a rig so you can see how fast your retrieve is and get used to where it’s going to show up.
Generally my bait appears at 30’ unless it’s a big deep diver or a rig etc.

Wow! I don't have Garmin and Livescope, but that's a great watch! Power-Packed with great information. Waiting for 'Birds version, I'm sure this will be of help at some point.
