Looks like you got remotivated all over again.
Lots of great info on these Slab. Thank you for sharing.
Great info. More techniques will expand your opportunities. Thanks for sharing.
Very Cool !!
Good article, good tips and good trip to South Carolina.
Good info, thanks for sharing!
love me some tandem livescoping , especially when it involves folks that use it a lot .
nice read
I just might have to get me some of that super stretch slime line. I have seen many tournament fishermen catch both Bass and Crappie using livescope. It is like playing a really cool video game. I know in my lifetime this technology has passed me by, but I am encouraged that it is available for the younger, next generation of fishermen.
Shiners have been doing all the heavy lifting for us this year. Watching a refusal on the screen after the Crappie runs right up to the jig is proof of the refusal. Even with shiners as one of my friends said "they stand around and vote on who is going to bite the shiner"............so true. Makes for a slow fishing day. At least with a Panoptix and Livescope you know fish are there to begin with.
The super stretch line may help but unless fishing super deep why use 4lb line ? I know it would tend to sink faster and cast farther. I favor heavier line like 8lb test and many use braid . Most say Crappie are not line shy. Guess it comes down to personal preference.
As for minnows I have not used them in years . Been wondering if they would bite a minnow after turning down a jig while watching on livescope .
I saw them on youtube earlier. Nice!!!
nice technique for those who want it I guess but vast majority of us have no intentions of getting it and IMO way too much time is spent by writers talking about it or video's on it. Personally whenever the LS is brought up I stop reading or viewing. The seniors I know especially have a really difficult time in getting it adjusted where it works well and give up on it. of course those of us who fish mostly from banks or docks have little interest in it. JMHO
Glad you had a great time anyway Slab.
I feel it’s a natural progression of the technology. Canepole turned a transducer sideways in an experiment years ago so it’s not something that hasn’t been considered. As a novelty it’s cool but the way I feel is that it’s a tool for those who make money winning tournaments or putting customers on giant fish only. I fish for enjoyment and don’t need it to enjoy my day. Smaller waters big fish populations will be diminished if it’s used extensively IMHO. I don’t think they should be used in any competition.
Glad it was a good trip and that you got educated on them by some of the best. Maybe you can change my mind one day.
