The Garmin LVS42HD is here, but the transducer is only part of the setup.

In our newest video, Ben walks through pairing LiveScope 2 with a Brew City pole and why this combination makes sense for anglers who want a clean, functional forward-facing sonar setup.

If you're looking at upgrading to LiveScope 2, check this one out.

Full video is live now on YouTube.

What are you running your LiveScope transducer on?

Along with Livescope2 we do clean rigging and accesories.

Cool thing about this setup was the Brew City Transducer pole.
Allows you to spot lock and scope fish without losing them because you have to use the trolling motor to stay on the fish.

Check 'em out on our website.

Same Lake, Same Fish.

The difference? Information.

The Garmin LVS42HD gives us another window into a world that's always been there. Fish following without biting. Sliding off a bait. Holding tighter to structure than we thought. Appearing where we never would've made another cast.

The technology keeps getting better, but the challenge is still the same: figure out what makes that fish bite.

What's something you've learned from watching fish on LiveScope that completely changed the way you fish?

No more black box.

LiveScope 2 just freed up some valuable real estate.

So what's the bigger win?

Getting your Senko storage back in the boat?

Or dropping some weight off your ice shuttle?

We're pretty sure we already know which answer we're getting from the ice guys.

More detail where it actually matters.

The new Garmin LiveScope 2 HD LVS42HD is built for anglers who want maximum clarity at castable distances. Garmin says it delivers 50% more detail at closer ranges, with Forward and Down range out to 125 feet.

And one of the biggest changes? No black box. The LVS42HD connects directly to a compatible Garmin chartplotter and power source, making for a cleaner, simpler rigging job.

We want to know:

If you could pick ONE, are you taking the extra detail of the LVS42HD or the extra range of the LVS44?

Come see the new LiveScope 2 lineup at Ben's Marine & Motorsports.

The Garmin LVS42HD delivers an incredibly sharp, high-definition view of what's happening below the surface. From tighter fish separation to cleaner structure and bait detail, it's designed to help you make more informed decisions with every cast.

Whether you're breaking down brush piles, targeting suspended fish, or fine-tuning your presentation, the LVS42HD gives you the confidence to know what's really happening beneath your boat.
