That's where I'm at with it too. For guys that fish for a living and don't want to get out of their seat to scan under a dock real quick, I get it. But for 99% of us fishing, hopping out and getting...
I really don't think the fish finder technology moves all that fast. A garmin 1222 that was debuted in 2018, lowrance carbons in 2016 and humminbird helix units introduced around 2018 still work with...
Exactly, it's very hard to be scientific on tests like this because conditions and bite windows change. If you like the color and the action and throw it with confidence that's the most important...
I have the equalizer and I agree with you. I don't think that it makes much of a difference. I think the biggest thing is getting rid of the factory plastic bushings and getting the brass ones in.
That seems 100% the right way to do it imo.
When people just say "50/50", should it really be split evenly if the expenses and practice commitment aren't split evenly? One guy brings his truck...
For sure, the complaints about him as an MC are overstated imo. I'm not a fan of his podcast but he does a good job as MC and is good during broadcasts too.
Mercer has a tough job as MC for sure. It's hard to get enthused about watching a bunch of guys weigh in fish.
Trying to rile up the classic crowd after they'd been sitting for hours and hours...
I think a lot of the vets are still stuck in the ESPN days, when bass fishing was at it's peak popularity and sponsor dollars are rolling in like crazy.
They never mention the part where it was a...
My favorite Gary Player story. A chubby kid got introduced to Gary. Gary says in that South African accent, "Tell me son, do you want to be a champion?". The kid mumbles, "ya" and Gary starts...
Wouldn't surprise me to see that as a rule for next year. Would be pretty cool to be only 19 and already getting the rules changed :laugh:
Guy asks a legit fishing question and gets bashed lol.
I will say FFS has changed the way I try to find fish for sure. Rather than idling thoroughly through an entire area, many times I'll just...
If you listen to the podcast it’s hard to argue with him. It’s a list of greatest of all time, no accounting for future victories or length of career or anything else besides results. Sure, I’d...
That’s what I got from it too. Dude is taking this stuff way too seriously, it’s a niche sport and for the vast, vast majority just a fun hobby.
Also, going out in the full retro getup kinda...
I’ve got a hot take, I think it’s time BASS dropped the boat wrap requirement. They don’t move product, young guys not good with sponsorship clearly pay more for the wraps than they actually make...
For me, and many others it’s just fun. If my boat goes 72 vs 68, sure it will make zero difference in tournament results. But I enjoy tweaking setup to get max performance out of my boat even though...
Nah. Honestly live transducers transom mounted are pretty limited, especially with them have no way of storing history.
That’s pretty much any sport though. For some reason we feel like guys should fish top level until they feel like retiring in bass fishing though.
Was it going to be a paint finish like Vexus? It's funny, that was the big push when Vexus launched and was supposedly much better performing than gelcoat, but it seems like most Vexus owners...
To be fair I also have heard stories of during early BASS tournament practices guys would skip if it was too rainy / windy. They also had some guys in the field that were more or less clueless and...
Guys that left for LIV got hundreds of millions.
KVD was sold a pitch from a used car salesman type, and the promises were broken almost instantly.
I don't fault him for leaving, I believe...
A brutal (but honest) quote I heard from Clunn when referring to KVD was, "his storybook finish to his career died when he left for the other league". Hard to disagree.
4 of the top 6 in this one are rookies. This is a special class.
To be consistent, I would say if they had a specific rule like "locks off limits" and he was casting right up at the edge of the lock, its basically exactly what Wheeler did and I'd consider it in...
Was the source of the rumor Randy Blaukets comment section?
