  This galaxy was easier for me to see than most of the other Pisces galaxies I tracked down this evening.  I noted it as not difficult to pick up, in fact it stood out to me while star-hopping toward its location.  Although I could not detect any structure, it was not difficult to see with direct vision.
I thought the best way to star-hop to this object was to go northeast for two stars, then turn north- northwest for two stars and then continue to where the galaxy is located.
