I agree with CP....For me I'm using the Livescope more to enhance my previous methods of Crappie fishing.I've taken some trips with it and did the single pole method,and I have gone multipole spider rigging with it as well,and in both cases the LS made it a better experience out there.I'm far from a Livescope expert and I still have alot of time to put in to improve how I'm using it and processing all the info the Livescope actually is giving you out on the water(with it each trip is truly a learning experience).Since actually getting and using the Livescope I have nothing but total respect for these Livescope Masters you see winning tourneys and stuff,they must have put a ton of time and effort in to get to that level they are at with using the LS.
