You would need that umbrella if you would learn how to get those limits before noon and get off the lake.

I love that lake. Summer crappie are pretty reliable around standing timber in 20' of water. Nice mess of fish, Guy. When's supper?
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.

Electronics has been a deep water game changer. No more wasted time fishing or even dropping a bait where there are no fish Electronics has been a deep water game changer. No more wasted time fishing or even dropping a bait where there are no fish This is very true, some people learned how to catch fish before all these fancy electronics we have now. I for one, learned the old way 45 years from my dad, and don’tplan to buy Livescope, I have fished with it and it took longer to limit than without it. Livescope will make just about anyone be able to limit out that never did before. What Guy won’t mention is that he never caught his limit before Livescope or rarely did he catch more than 10 fish without it, now that he has it he can limit more times than not, so yes Livescope can make a huge difference for some people.

I've been in a boat with it. I personally hate it. Surprised them guys don't get neck cramp staring down at the screen. Hard pass.

I have been in friends boats bass fishing that had it but never paid attention to it. Last Saturday I had a two man limit and my cousin with his new $75,000 Skeeter only had 35 so I told him to bring that boat to me Sunday and we would see what that Livescope could do on some of my stuff, we had our 50 but it took 4.5 hours to do it which is longer than it normally takes me doing it my way. It was cool to watch all the fish but I think you spend too much time trying to catch fish that are not active, just my 2 cents. Since he got Livescope late last year he has done pretty well with it with a few Bass Champs tourneys though, he got 2nd in one and 5th in another and saw all 5 he weighed for his second place finish.

Well I didn’t have a dad to show me how or where to fish, had to learn on my own. Just started fishing really last few years, got the electronics like guides have and learned how to use them. Yes I did not start catching limits till I learned how to use my electronics. Nothing wrong with that.

Like I said no graph. So nothing to throw a bouy on. I fish visible structure.
I catch 90% of the crappie I catch with waders on. I'll go a couple times in the summer but not much.

Do you fish without a cap?
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH

Do you fish without a cap? How else do you expect him to tan his five head?
Don't let your ears hear what your eyes didn't see, and don't let your mouth say what your heart doesn't feel
