PingLive Mounting: The Best Pole Options for Boat, Kayak, and Ice Fishing


PingLive and It's Compatibility with Market-Available Live Sonar Mounts and Poles (2025 Guide)

PingLive is designed to work smoothly with most popular mounting pole systems, including those made for LVS34 transducers. So if you already have an LVS34-compatible pole from brands like RailBlaza, Summit Fishing, or Seelite, you can use it with PingLive right away, no extra tweaks needed.

If there’s one thing that can make or break your sonar experience, it’s the way you mount it. Anglers have always been quick to adapt gear to fit their style of fishing—whether that’s on a boat, in a kayak, or out on the ice.

That same creativity has opened the door for PingLive users, since the system is built to work with a wide range of third-party pole mounts. From heavy-duty boat setups to compact kayak rigs and portable ice fishing solutions, there’s a pole that fits perfectly with PingLive.

In this article, we’ll take a look at how PingLive pairs with a lot of companies and why the right pole is just as important as the sonar itself.

Why the Right Mounting Pole Matters

While PingLive is engineered to be portable, compact, and flexible, your mounting pole system is what unlocks its full potential.

A high-quality pole ensures:

    • Smooth rotation between forward, down, and perspective views

    • Rock-solid stability in waves, current, or ice

    • Easy setup and portability for different fishing environments

Fortunately, PingLive is designed to be compatible with all major third-party pole systems. Below, we’ll break them down by fishing style.



PingLive Brackets and Installation Types (Pole Mount)

PingLive comes with three installation brackets: Shaft Mount, Barrel Mount, and Panoramic Mount. When using a pole system, you can mount the transducer with either the Shaft Mount or the Panoramic Mount.

Depending on your pole setup, if there is a mounting head at the end of the pole, you can install PingLive that way as well! PingLive's notched teeth are also designed to be compatible with LVS34 poles, making it easy to integrate PingLive with many popular systems.
