LOOKING AHEAD LOOKING DOWN In forward-looking mode, which will be the primary choice for bass anglers, the transducer signal projects out and down in front of the boat, covering about 90 degrees vertically and 40 degrees horizontally. In down-looking mode, the transducer signal operates like the traditional sonar “cone,” with a 90-degree front-to-back signal angle and 40 degrees side to side. LOCATING TARGETS Like bass, anglers are always looking for a target to fish. It might be a school of baitfish or stationary target such as a brush pile or grass edge. “Swishing” the trolling motor back and forth while watching the LiveSight screen can help dial in for a perfect cast. 42 FLWFISHING.COM | MAJORLEAGUEFISHING.COM | FEBRUARY-MARCH 2020
