Yall better learn to fish offshore and use that LiveScope........
Unfortunately, my fishing partner and I have just gotten it added to his boat. Neither one of us are 'offshore' guys and haven't learned to use it yet. So, we stayed shallow. The best shallow weight was around 14 lbs. Most shallow water guys had around 10 lbs if they were lucky. There was a half dozen or so that showed out with 20+ lbs. They were all off in the abyss fishing with their LiveScopes on the brushpiles they either found or sunk themselves. I'm not sure I've ever seen something change a sport so dramatically than this LiveScope stuff. Sure, techniques and baits come along that are hot: flipping, a-rig, dropshot, etc, etc. But this LiveScope stuff is next level. If you don't have it and know how to use it, there are lakes where you simply not compete. Eufaula is one of those lakes. Pickwick is another one and we go there twice this year. We need to put in a lot of seat time idling that lake in order to compete there this year.

Am I the only one that feels like Live Scope kinda takes some of the fun out of it? I mean, maybe I'd feel different if I actually used one and had some success with it, but to me part of the fun is finding a spot that "ought" to have fish on it, then fishing it and waiting to see what I catch...

No. I have watched enough of it to know I would not enjoy it.

You anti- livescopers would love Randy Blaukat's youtube channel..."Intuitive Angling". He is so obsessed I can't watch him anymore.

Affording this new age sonar is my problem, I wouldn't mind having Humminbird 360 on my TM, that HB live scope is out of my reach money wise.,, thought about looking for used. There's some real good deals right now on livescope used and new. The 32 is very affordable right now with alot of people switching to the 34.

No you are not. It took all the fun out of crappie fishing on Grenada for me. Watch for the numbers of 3+ lb fish to drop significantly over there because of it.Kind of the same effect that cobia kill tournaments targeting the largest egg laden females had here.
