“Garmin was the first to deliver live-scanning sonar technology
to ice anglers, transforming the way they pinpoint and follow
schools of fish below the ice,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice
president of worldwide sales. “Now with a lithium battery, powering
your LiveScope has never been easier. It’s lighter to carry around
from hole to hole and it’ll keep you fishing for hours longer than
before.”
The LiveScope Ice Fishing Bundle LI features two modes in one
transducer – LiveScope Forward and LiveScope Down – so anglers can
see fish and structure in real time, up to 200 feet in any
direction below the ice. Either view provides incredibly sharp,
real-time scanning sonar images of fish swimming and moving toward
or away from the hole and below the surface with remarkable target
separation and clarity. The transducer can easily be adjusted to
fit the angler’s fishing techniques and preferences while tracking
schools of fish and determining where to drill the next hole. And a
built-in flasher provides a view of jigs and fish as they swim into
the beam.
Equipped with everything needed for hardwater fishing, the
LiveScope Ice Fishing Bundle LI includes a large ECHOMAP™ UHD 93sv
touchscreen combo with keyed assist, the Panoptix LiveScope System
with forward- and down-scanning modes, a swivel pole mount for the
transducer, plus the rechargeable lithium battery, battery charger
and LiveScope transducer cable that stays flexible in the cold—all
in a convenient, glove-friendly portable bag.
The ECHOMAP UHD series has an easy-to-use interface that allows
for customized combination screens, so anglers can easily access
flasher, map, sonar and other data most important to them, and its
glove-friendly, user-programmable keys allow for one-press access
to an angler’s favorite pages.
Preloaded with Garmin’s latest and most detail-rich LakeVü g3
maps that blend the best of both Garmin and Navionics® premium
content together, the ECHOMAP UHD 93sv includes more than 18,000
lakes with up to 1-foot fishing contours that provide a more
accurate depiction of bottom structure for improved fishing charts
and enhanced detail.
When the ice thaws, the versatile LiveScope Ice Fishing Bundle
LI can easily transition to the boat in the summer months thanks to
the new LiveScope Boat Kit. The
kit includes a trolling motor mount and the necessary power and
network cables to take advantage of LiveScope technology
year-round. Garmin also added the LiveScope LVS32-IF ice fishing transducer
with LiveScope Down and LiveScope Forward modes3 and the new
STRIKER™ Vivid
5cv Ice Fishing Bundle to its ice fishing arsenal, which offers
bundles that include an affordable STRIKER Plus 4 to the premium
9-inch ECHOMAP UHD.
Expected to be available in September 2021, the LiveScope Ice
Fishing Bundle LI has a suggested retail price of $2,999.99; the
LiveScope LVS32-IF transducer is $999.99; the LiveScope Boat Kit is
$124.99; and the STRIKER Vivid 5cv Ice Fishing Bundle is $449.99.
