I didn’t know it at the time but taking the time to go and fix this issue I was having and filming it would help me to win $100,000 at the first event of the year. I did this video to talk about a common issue I have seen with people’s FFS setups and the best way to go about and fix it.

This SMALL Adjustment WON ME $100,000 – FFS tips
#dustinconnell #forwardfacingsonar #activetarget
Great info 👍
Y’all done sold those fish obsessed mounts out.
Good video. Great to see pros sharing the finer details. Good luck at Redcrest! I'm rootin' for ya!
Fantastic, informative video. Thank you very much for taking the time!
Hey DC Little tip/trick that’ll get you right is stick a level on your trolling motor head on the side and stick something under it to level it and then keep it like that then Stick a level on the side of the transducer and level em to where there the same and it will be perfectly aligned
What adjustment do you make after crushing a stump?! … haha .. this information is great.
Active target has 18 deg cone so it's 3d on your screen just because u see it on screen doesn't mean it's center I think only way is to pull a string an square it up
I switched to a pole with my AT2, it's so much better. Dead accurate on most casts, I can quickly sweep 360 deg and tilt it up for Scout.
That fish obsessed is legit, the only mount I've used that you can see your bait immediately when it hits the water. 1/16 crappie jig at 80 ft out. Only mount out there imo
Great video DC. Ii don't have the transducer. I have one on the back of my boat. Have to learn how to use it. I never played video games so I'm lost.
Dustin I’ve been setting up units for a long time son. You have to use a known target! Hang a bait from a floating buoy and back away from it.
Ok, just humour me for a minute.
I have 2 Lowrance units, so huge fan.
What I am seeing is with live target, if your fishing rough water with 2ft waves, the live target transducer is lifting and dropping with each wave so much, the picture is next to useless.
So, if the transducer was mounted on the transom say 1 ft lower than the keel on the gearbox, it would move up and down way less. This would have to involve a revolving unit that works in conjunction with your trolling motor, and the sounder unit would have to compensate for the length of your boat in its on screen information.
Given our small waterways here in Australia, generally rough conditions and high boat traffic, i really doubt active target would be worth my investment.
When you find a specific pattern, ie: certain water depth, temperature, structure and bait, then active target is really not essential IMO.
The art of reading your surroundings and computing the info into your days fishing seems to be extinct.
I didnt even have a GPS 8 years ago, did it old school.
Need the W in Redcrest this year for sure. Homeboy. ROLL TIDE. D.C. Coosa River. Oh yeah.
I have an LSV 32 transducer, thanks for this tutorial. I will definitely spend time on making the adjustment.
Is there any word on when we can expect to see the mooch minnow?
Just a little request, if you could have the music a little lower then we could hear DC talk better. Thanks. Love your videos!
Do you use a 0 degree mount
Great info DC 👊
Let’s go Boys, win ya $100,000 by playing video games-Major League Gaming.
DC, every time you deploy the trolling motor, you put your foot on it! Why?
So a piece of tape with lines every 1/8” just above the bracket and a locating mark on the bracket itself can help tremendously with these adjustments. Just having a reference mark of any kind can make fine tuning this system so much easier.
So let me ask you this. Why don't you put the active target on its own pole? It seems it would be easier so you don't have to fight the trolling motor. I don't have it so that's why I'm asking
What's the best way to work the freeloader I bought a pack of the green pumpkin
Guessing since this was filmed in La. You’ll be setting up your transducer again after snapping your trolling motor off at Sante Cooper?
You are helping all bass fishermen by helping them understand how to adjust and use the FFS
We love ya brother keep doing your thing big dog
