Can See Fish on Side Imaging Now

I’ve always struggled with understanding side imaging. I could see trees and tires but never fish. In this course, he explained it in such a simple way that even my kid, who was watching over my shoulder, said “oh, that’s one there.” The analogies and on-the-water examples made it click way faster than anything I’ve watched on YouTube.
The screenshots showing exactly where the fish and structure were made a huge difference.

How to View Video Courses

Why not just learn it on Youtube?

Comprehensive and Structured Learning

Unlike YouTube, where information is scattered across various videos and channels, your course compiles everything in one place. The content is meticulously organized to provide a step-by-step learning experience, ensuring you don't miss any crucial information.

Expertise from a Professional

My livelihood depends on my expertise in fishfinders. I am on the water every day, constantly learning and refining my skills. Unlike many YouTube "experts," I have real-world experience and a proven track record in professional tournament fishing and guiding.

Reliable and Up-to-Date Information

YouTube content can quickly become outdated. Your course is regularly updated with the latest techniques and tips, ensuring that learners always have access to current information.

If You're Skeptical, Read This First

If your electronics were dialed in and you were happy with what you’re seeing, you wouldn’t still be searching for answers.

I know how this goes. You’ve already:

1) Spent serious money on your fishfinder

2) Tried tweaking settings but you’re still not confident

3) Watched YouTube after YouTube and every “expert” says something different

4) Seen perfect demo screenshots online but your screen doesn’t look like that on the water

That’s exactly why Fishfinder Coach exists.

I’m on the water every week, guiding and testing on Garmin, Lowrance, and Humminbird units in real conditions, not factory defaults.

If you're skeptical, good. You should be.
Just know this, every single review on this site came from someone who felt exactly like you do right now.

When your screen finally makes sense, that skepticism turns into confidence real quick.
