There are TWO CORE VIDEOS plus three bonus videos.
You’ll learn the 3 main reasons people don’t see fish on their sounder AND how those things interact with each other to exacerbate the problem (they cancel each other out, or make fish so tiny you can’t see them)
We take you in the field in various locations to show you…
The result is CONFIDENCE! Knowing what is actually under you instead of being tricked by little-known illusions. Plus we’ll teach you how to ENHANCE what you want to see (fish) instead of getting duped by clutter.
Please don’t be too concerned about the model of sounder we are using, or the species of fish we are displaying. All sounders conform to these principles and all fish targets are just that… fish targets. You’ll see from the testimonials this course works in all locations and on all units.
We have also added some troubleshooting in Video 2 for deep water anglers using traditional 2D units only.
We have included examples for both side scan and traditional. If you don’t have a side scan unit yet, revisit this course when you do as they are TOPS. For those with side scan, I use my traditional in tandem with my side scan, so the entire course will be of benefit to you.

We’re from Northern Australia and the fish species we use in the demo are as well. But our concepts work worldwide! We’ve had happy students in 73+ countries using all manner of fish finder brands and units. This goes to show you that fish targets are fish targets and our concepts work wherever you are in the world.

Not everyone knows their way around their fish finder, and those who do don’t always know how to explain it to others. That’s what makes the Ryan Moody Fishing courses unique. The information is simple and to the point so ANYONE can learn from it.
‘DEFINITELY RECOMMEND SOUNDER SKILLS 1. I HAVE WATCHED HEAPS OF YOUTUBE CLIPS TO TRY AND EXPLAIN WHAT MY SOUNDER IS SHOWING ME BUT RYAN EXPLAINS IT IN SIMPLE TERMS.’ – Nathan Pratt
‘CLEAR, CONCISE AND TO THE POINT. SPOKEN LIKE A TRUE FISHERMAN!’ – Brett Organ
Short answer, no. This is one of the things that frustrates us much, the amount of bullshi* on Youtube that does more harm than good is really a shame.
‘I’VE SEEN MANY TUTORIALS OVER THE YEARS BUT WAS NEVER ABLE TO CORRECTLY INTERPRET WHAT I SEE UNTIL RYAN EXPLAINED THE BASICS.’ – David Walker
‘ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND…THE VALUE OF YOUR EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE COUPLED WITH EASE OF LEARNING. FOR A SO-CALLED EXPERIENCED FISHO I LEARNED HEAPS.’ – Brett Ford
Sounder Skills 1
In this course, we’re going to go through the 3 main reasons people don’t see fish on their sounder.
Understanding these concepts is the difference between the marketing hype and the reality of what you see in your boat. The biggest issue is they INTERACT with each other and can cancel each other out OR exacerbate the problem (making fish so tiny you can’t see them).
We demonstrate these concepts with sounder shots AND actual sounder recordings narrated by Ryan fishing on the boat, so you can begin to conceptualise the 3D world underneath you displaying on your 2D equipment.
There are TWO CORE VIDEOS which take an hour to watch plus three bonus videos. No frills, no fluff. Just an expert angler sharing his hard earned knowledge with you.
Please don’t be too concerned about the model of sounder we are using, or the species of fish we are displaying. All sounders conform to these principles and all fish targets are just that… fish targets. You’ll see from the testimonials this course works in all locations and on all units.

I thought $20.00 was reasonable to check Sounder Skills 1 out and see if it was helpful. I really liked the info about setting the scrolling speed, and I realised I have been doing it all wrong. I am saving up to purchase Sounder Skills 2.
I had no hesitations about Sounder Skills 1. I have heard a lot of good reports about Ryan Moody's courses. Understanding basic settings (2D, sidescan, and down imaging) was the part I liked best. I would highly recommend the course, it was very helpful, and I can’t wait to do the Sounder Skills 2
Thanks to Sounder Skills 1, I can FINALLY understand sidescan. Ryan makes it easy to understand, even for a numpty like me!!
100%, I would recommend Sounder Skills 1. I understand now that you can get a whole lot more knowledge learning from other people who have been doing this for years. The course is very easy to interpret and is very user-friendly; it’s opened my eyes to the basics of how to start using my fish find
I'm 50 and have used sounders all my life, but only ever 2d sonar. The technology has advanced so much that it would have taken me a long time to work out the info provided in Sounder Skills 1. I've just bought a new Lowrance, and I've only used it once. I can immediately appreciate the value of Rya
I had no hesitations before signing up for Sounder Skills 1, and since completing the course, I would most definitely recommend it! I particularly enjoyed how Ryan taught me about the different features of my sounder and their uses.
I hesitated, as I was not sure how good the course would be. I was really interested in how the sounder picks up fish at differing speeds and how the side view is used. How the images moved through the side view and down view was really enlightening. I have a 3-way sounder and have struggled to use
Sounder Skills 1 is a great price, Australian, and risk-free. I would highly recommend it. The entire course is brilliant. Coming from land fishing and now a new boat owner, the sounder was a mystery on how to read, this course has given me a great base to kick off.
The knowledge you get from the course is not written in the manual of the sounder, that is why I would highly recommend it! Even with my cheap sounder, it made a lot of difference. I particularly enjoyed the information on side scan, scroll speed, and boat speed.
As a novice, all the topics in Sounder Skills 1 were very helpful and educational. I think this course would help most of the people l know, who have boats and fish finders and reckon they know everything about a fish finder!!
Ryan shares his outstanding knowledge in Sounder Skills 1. Fantastic course!
