360 says

you are in the wrong slip fella ! :banghead
hit the little private dock at lunch time yesterday .
saw a professional bass fisherman in a tourney easing towards me .
asked him if he could SI the dock and give me a heads up on what is under it .
the bite was very slow and he proceeded to say this about that .
I got 360 , SI , livescope and a few other things as he eased towards me .
lets see what is under there ......
he said the slip you are in has fish in it and some are large and they are active on the livescope .
BUT ,,,the slip beside you to your left is really loaded with bait and fish like crazy !
told me it was no surprise there were so many fish under it .
said there were chairs , concrete , metal and beams and all sorts of cover under it .
gave him some tips on where to find his big bass and off he went .
he sent me 2 images of the pile of fish as he was surprised to see so many in one spot .
such is how technology works for the guy who has it , went to the slip to my left and my bite ratio turned up a good notch or 2 and even ripped one while he was sitting there :highfive
no large fish in the mix as i couldn't make it happen , lost a real nice one though .
17 in an hour aint on fire , but it beats the way it started out for sure ....
thats my report from ft worth during the summer ,winter we are having .....:Rofl
KABOOM is the word yawl

Those are some nice ones

I am so excited for the early fish on the spawn to come in there , that spot holds some real jim dandy slabs for our part of the world .
back when i first started hitting that lake i ran into a local kayak fella , asked if he was doing any good ?
he said not really and i said well I am up over a hundred already and just started and he said .....
yeah , seen you slinging them, but you aint on the big 17 inchers :yikes

Electronics are great for showing you where the fish are. Not so much on showing you how to catch them. Nothing as aggravating as seeing fish and not able to figure out what turns on the bite.

What gave it away a Glittery Boat or was it his Jersey? :Rofl

That kayak guy was just jealous! Sounds like you had a very nice day out there!

it was his really steady jig and craw casting with purpose as he watched his electronics and the speed he covered water as he worked the shoreline AND the high end glittery Skeeter with all the big screens all over it too ........

That will do it

Can’t make out much in that first picture. Just can’t figure out what I’m seeing.

and there in lies the beauty of the different forms of looking around down there .
I am quite fortunate though in that the fellas that know what they are looking at explain it to me .
I could see some dock poles in the first image and lots of things in the water column .
and for me that is about as much as need be , time to get jiggy wit it :crazy:

I can't figure what I'm seeing either.

Water spots and the reflection of the fella taking the photo

the second image is pretty good , all sorts of things on the bottom , poles on the dock and lots of bait and fish is what I saw ?
along with water spots and the fella taking the image too ....:Rofl

Hard to keep the water spots off of those things at times
