This coming from a dude that has 6 graphs and 5 transducers on his boat 😂 there's several that are competitive that don't have graphs at all. John cox is in the top 10 damn near every week and fishes out of an aluminum John boat with Gen 1 depth finders. Tyler Williams finished 3rd with no live scope flipping a jig. Sounds like a jealousy thing. I'm in the top 10 in open eqs right now with no livescope brother. Jealousy ain't a good look.
Just released. All-time viewership record for last tournament 😂
Your loosing Randy… your loosing..
Wow, so now you are picturing and attacking PROFESSIONAL anglers who are obeying the rules and taking advantage of currently legal technology to feed their families. If you want to attack the organizations and push for change then you do your thing, but to attack anglers that are out there doing everything they can to compete is absolute garbage. As somebody that at one time was a very competitive angler, I would think you would know better. They’re fighting for a check by catching fish while you fight for a check by trolling clicks. I’m really curious as to what you would do in their position. Would you just give up and finish 80th?
Anyone notice there are more and more sales from big Vendors…. almost every week. Something is going on and it can't be good
I just tuned in until I heard “ cheater box” , shit is hilarious to me !!!!!!!
Steve Kennedy was live scoping on BASS live and said…..and I quote……."that's so cool, why on earth would anyone want to ban that……I have been getting my butt kicked by it but I'm learning".
That is absolutely the right attitude to have.
FFS is ratty.
Why dont Berkley or Strikeking start a nonscope legends tour?
Its crazy, ive been into bassmasters since the early 90s….. i cant even watchthis shit. Fucking 3 dudes back to back on the broadcast, not taking their eyes off a screen….. not even casting. Holding his rod in the water driving the boat just watching a screen
I think the problem you have Randy is, you are not understanding all aspects of what is happening in fishing. Also you’re closed to understanding that. To come to solutions, you must be open to what is actually happening. Once high school and college became a path to professional fishing, it changed the industry forever. High school and college kids have new boats that their parents buy, most, not all and they become very successful with YouTube and Google Earth and technology. You cannot stop or change that by picking out spotlighting as the demise of Fishing. You must look at the bigger picture to find solutions.
Randy, I agree with your views on livescope and how it essentially spotlighting for fishing, however I wandering if the bigger threat to our fisheries is YouTube. Let me explain:
Guys like you who cut their teeth far before the internet was readily available spent a lifetime accruing knowledge about techniques and spots, and how to fish different weather conditions. That said, in the last few years I've taken advice from your channel and others (Richard Gene for crappie) and I've improved my success on Beaver and table rock 10 fold.
My question to you is whether you think the detailed information about how and where to fish is as big of a threat as livescope? I'm thankful yall are putting information publicly on certain techniques because I've been able to fish with stuff like jigs, and shakey heads thanks to things I've learned from your channel.
I totally agree with stopping the spotlighting fish ! I won a lot of local tournaments without that junk years ago. I am now too old to fish much for bass, but I do fish for crappie and in the last 3-4 years that bite has almost gone… I hope all the states cuts the limit to 10 per day! I had a great time fishing and have caught 6 bass over 10 pounds, 2 were over 11pounds! I will not even watch bass or crappie fishing if the angler is using forward facing sonar…………….Period.
I can put a camera on a fish tank. I bet i can catch them
This is one of the tougher to learn to fish clear water lakes. It takes some learning for seasoned pros most of the time to do well on this lake. The hands down favorite to do well on this lake was in 50th on day one Gerald Swindle. He grew up fishing this lake and he and Aaron Martins took our money on night tournaments in the summer several times. These FFS guys would not stand a chance on this lake, it does not fish like Table Rock, Lake of the Ozarks.
PLAIN AND SIMPLE…. look at the video pic…. sad that pro boats look like a theater. There not pro squat. ANYONE can camera fish. And people are so broken in head they argue….
Names we don’t know but I bet everyone of them know you.
Randy, I watched Bassmaster's this morning. An interesting comment was made by an angler that he had to timed the hook set based on what the screen showed him rather than the bite of the fish. Truly a video game.
I’m not watching anymore the killing of bass after each tournament is enough to make anybody mad that loved to fish for fun
Sure glad I listen to you guys. I told Matt a while back I had never fished a swim jig in my 55 years of bassing because I fish mostly mossy farm ponds and I didn't think they were appropriate. I've probably caught the majority of my bass this season on swim jigs, including last night when I got a 2, two 3's, two 5's, and a 6 1/2. Black and purple jig with a black and blue fleck creature hawg trailer. Thanks, you guys probably saved my season!
DONT WATCH PRO FISHING ANYMORE 😢
As expected…no doubt this one would be won by FFS. I think the guys that unsubscribe are the ones that just think they know everything about the game and place mid pack in their 10 boat club. You're subject to your opinion just like everyone else. Why take such offense to everything….geez.
Ban Poison Balling. Continued use and sponsorship of Lead fishing tackle is the dark side … when is Poison Balling going to be banned in professional fishing? When will we hear your opinion of Poison Balling?
all live-scoper is the bad apples in the fishing community. 🤣
