Humminbird MEGA Live 2: Unparalleled Next Gen Clarity in Forward Facing Sonar

 

RACINE, Wis. – As a pioneer in fishing innovations, Humminbird unveils MEGA Live 2, offering real-time MEGA Live Imaging™ sonar technology with next-generation clarity and performance to elevate the angling experience. Designed for unmatched clarity, MEGA Live 2 provides precision bait tracking, displaying crystal-clear images that helps anglers scout confidently and make each cast count.

MEGA Live 2 forward-facing sonar provides real-time returns, revealing fish behavior with exceptional detail. Improved target separation allows users to track fish movement and lure responses while maintaining a clear view of underwater structures. This clarity helps anglers differentiate fish, structure, and the bottom, ensuring a consistently sharp and stable image. With the new TargetBoost feature, suspended fish and bait stand out, making it ideal for precise presentations in open water scenarios.

The transducer offers three versatile view modes right out of the box: Forward Mode for watching bait interactions in front of the boat, Down Mode for capturing clear views directly below the boat, and Landscape Mode for wide-area scouting around the boat. The redesigned mount adds stability and allows for 7.5-degree adjustments and new locking positions.

MEGA Live 2 lets anglers customize their view with 15 color palettes, each optimized for detail and clarity in various conditions. Unique palettes like Citrus Shad, PB&J, and Doppler provide flexibility to adapt to water types, weather, and fishing preferences. This personalization ensures anglers can tailor their live sonar display for any scenario.

Mounting MEGA Live 2 is easier than ever, offering mounting options that include placement on either side of a Minn Kota Ultrex trolling motor. Upgrading to TargetLock enables independent control of the transducer and trolling motor, and MEGA Live 2 is also compatible with hand-control and transom-mount setups for added versatility.

 

Humminbird MEGA Live 2 Key Features:

  • Enhanced Clarity & Stability: Real-time sonar feedback with refined imaging, delivering clearer views of fish, structure, and bait. Improved stability minimizes noise and ensures consistent performance even in challenging conditions.
  • Improved Target Separation: Precise distinction between individual fish, bait, and underwater cover, helping anglers quickly identify key targets.
  • Better Bait Tracking: Track lure movements with exceptional clarity, making it easier to monitor fish reactions and adjust tactics accordingly.
  • 15 Optimized Color Palettes: Vibrant fishing-themed color options, each designed to improve visibility in varying water and light conditions.
  • 3 View Modes + TargetBoost: Forward, Down, and Landscape modes to scan different areas around the boat. TargetBoost enhances your returns, making suspended fish and bait stand out in open water situations.
  • Compatibility: Integrates with APEX, XPLORE, and SOLIX G3 models, ensuring top-tier performance across Humminbird's premium fish-finding systems.

MSRP: $1,499.99

The cutting-edge processing power required for MEGA Live 2’s enhanced imaging and TargetBoost Technology is supported by the Quad-Core architecture of XPLORE, and the advanced performance capabilities of APEX and SOLIX G3.
