LiveScope 2 Transducer- LVS42HD

The Garmin LiveScope 2 HD Transducer LVS42HD delivers Garmin’s clearest live-scanning sonar ever, purpose-built for anglers who fish at castable range. Optimized for distances out to 125 feet, the LVS42HD serves up 50% more detail at closer ranges than the previous generation, with high-definition imagery, sharper target separation, and reduced on-screen noise that make it easy to distinguish individual fish from bait, brush, and your lure. Watch fish track, follow, and commit in real time with fast processing speeds that tell you exactly when to set the hook.

Like the rest of the LiveScope 2 Series, the LVS42HD features a streamlined direct-connect design with no black box required it plugs straight into your compatible Garmin chartplotter and power source for a simpler, cleaner installation with fewer failure points. Integrated smart sensors handle the details automatically: built-in water detection shuts off sonar transmission the moment the transducer leaves the water, while an onboard temperature sensor delivers accurate real-time readings. Wider sonar angles expand your coverage in Forward, Down, and Perspective modes, and more than 15 vivid color palettes let you fine-tune the display for maximum detail and clarity in any conditions.

The LVS42HD includes a trolling motor barrel mount and adjustable Perspective Mode mount, both tool-free for fast changes between fishing techniques. It also integrates across the full Garmin marine ecosystem attach it to the Spy Pole mount for wireless sonar control independent of your trolling motor, or pair it with the GT360UHD transducer for OneV sonar, overlaying live imaging onto a 360-degree view around your boat. For anglers who live and die by short- to mid-range precision dissecting docks, brush piles, and suspended fish within casting distance the LiveScope 2 HD LVS42HD is the sharpest live sonar Garmin has ever built.
