Live scope

I haven't personally done it before. I was considering adding the transom mounted Panoptix transducer to my boat at the time I purchased her coming up on almost 5 years ago now. But at the time, the Panoptix was only rated to I believe 200' in depth, and that was in freshwater. In saltwater, they said it would likely be only about half that depth, which if I'm fishing for kings, I'm quite regularly fishing in 100'+ of water. They do have the $5k thru hull Panoptix transducer option, but I didn't and really still don't want to spend $5k+ just for a transducer. The LiveScope options appear to mount to your kicker/trolling motor and have heard it's kind of more for freshwater/bass fishermen that are looking at structures and so forth. Not that you can't use it in the saltwater, as it looks like the more expensive version of the LiveScope has a depth of 500' in freshwater or 350' in saltwater. But I don't believe they have a transom mount option, it looks like it has to be mounted to the kicker motor, and then turns when you turn the kicker motor around. Which also isn't a very good option for my setup.
