Me and my buddy decided to film a video on livescope and timber at lake oconee. Learned a lot on how crappie act in timber. Thanks for watching!

Awesome ! Hey Dawgg , I want one for Christmas !
Pretty good video. Like the way you pointed out how the fish react to different things.
Its like playing a video game, pretty much takes all the sport and skill out of fishing. Hate this technology and feel it, and side imaging should be banned.
I’m sure there were people that were against flashers, paper graphs, 2D color sonar, etc. it’s technology and it is ever evolving. Trust me skill is still required with livescope. Limits and regulations are in place for a reason, as long as they are in act the fisheries are safe in my opinion.Quote:

Pretty much every major tournament here of late has been won using this technology. The anglers who have took the time to master these sonars use can distinguished size and target individual fish. All the top finishers at the ACT tournament on Grenada this past weekend done just that.

I'm with you dabber, nothing beats that thump just as you pick up the pepsi or take that last bite of cracker. I do use a d/f but mostly to read bottom structure, I think that a lot of fisherman/hunters have gone from pitting themselves against the fish (or wildgame) to the mindset that catching the limit or the biggest or the biggest horns is all that is important and will go to any expense or measure to do that for show and tell. I've caught enough in my life time and I just like to enjoy knowing that I can still catch a fish!!!!Quote:

It takes the guess work out and allows you to see exactly where the fish are and how they are reacting to your presentation. Which seems great, but I feel you lose a lot of the sport.... With that said, it's becoming nearly essential to compete in tournament fishing and the technology with out a doubt works. It's truly remarkable stuff. I don't know if I'll ever have one on my boat or not, but I can definitely see the benefits.
To be fair I had the same mixed feelings the first time I saw a spider fishing rig. Crappie fishing used to be minnows and cane poles, unless you went to Murray, then it was bream buster poles and jigs in the blowdowns.
