If you are completely confused by your fish finder, this is the video for you! In this video, I explain how to interpret down imaging on your Humminbird, Lowrance, and Garmin fish finders to find more offshore bass. I give tips and instruction on how to read the images and understand where your boat is in relation to what you see on the screen. Hope you enjoy!

    True genius is the ability to explain anything at a fifth grade level.....thank you.
  • @kentonmarsh2070
    If you're upgrading from your Pong or Pac Man fish finder like me, this is a great intro to today's fish finders. Much appreciated!
  • As a LONG time angler I wanted to say thank you SO much for these videos! I never really used fish finders as I would almost always sight fish structure. Your explanations are invaluable!
  • @timholsworth316
    great graphics, you set the standard! no one else is close when it comes to teaching and using visual aids! Well done (as usual) Jonny!!
  • Great explanation video! It's people like you that help manufacturers determine which features to make easier to use. Keep it up!
  • @andregordon803
    wow finally a great vid of down image. very clearly explained THANKS SO MUCH.
  • Most videos are watching people catch fish. Interesting, but doesn’t teach me anything. Your videos are always full of helpful information that makes me better. Gifted teacher. Thanks for all the time you put into them.
  • Man, there is no other channel anywhere that I know of like this one (especially for anglers looking for educational content). Jonny should have way more subscribers then it shows... this should be the number one fishing channel.
  • I am a person who often likes to completely understand things but this isn't the time for that. Your "over simplification" is exactly what I need right now. I need to understand all the basics before trying to understand all the deeper stuff. Thanks so much.
  • @JeffBurow
    This has helped a ton. I know a lot of people with fish finders, but they don't normally find fish and don't know how they work. I am looking forward to more of your content.
  • Finally someone made a video explaining this clearly, extremely helpful
  • @Pilot545
    You do an awesome job of explaining a complicated subject. I flew F-16 is USAF and interpreting a radar image is not intuitive...whether air-to-air or air-to-ground and SAR. Obviously, some unique characteristics for sonar on a boat that make it slightly different in some aspects, so I definitely appreciate your explanation!
  • @brierycrk
    I would like to tell you that this video was very well made. I bought a fishfinder not long ago for the first time and was very intimidated when I tried to use it until I saw this video. Now I fish with great confidence using it. The way you broke the video down made it very easy to follow along. I've watched a handful of other videos that you've put out and they are equally awesome. Thank you for all the content and keep up the good work.👍
  • @alanoliver5378
    I live in the UK, I go sea fishing on my kayak, I've had it 2 years, its fitted with a Lawrence fish finder, that is the best down to earth explanation I have seen in the two years I've owned it, thank you so much, tight lines kidda, be lucky 😉
  • @joeyguyton799
    Great information explained very well. I enjoy watching your channel because you have relevant topics to us that are trying to improve our skills. Best free channel on Bass fishing in my opinion.
  • @jones1394
    Man you the best. I have learn so much from you. You teach more than the pros. Great job and glad God sent you to us weekend fishermen.
  • @jimmurray5708
    Great instruction and easy to follow. Bought a used boat with new electronics but no instructions included. Your videos help a lot.
  • I think if someone has one,and kinda has the jist of it down, this video will make perfect sense and won't be confusing. Thanks man. Saved me a bunch of circling
  • @kenklotz4456
    Another great tutorial! You have answered so many questions I've had in each one of them. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Subbed and liked to help support you.
  • @DeeDee-vu5mi
    Great explanation, may I add when the boat is not moving, all info seen on the screen is a recorded history of whats directly under the transducer. For those that dont know, the far left of the screen is the oldest histroy. Thanks again for you explanation. Enjoyed the videos.
