We are living in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so stupid people won't be offended
I think so.
Dang still no FFS transducer?? :)
I thought I read at some point that the John Cox fishing the NPFL wasn't the same one fishing BASS and MLF. Is that not correct?
For sure... THE John Cox definitely fished the NPFL championship on Amistad and Redcrest, and is listed at the classic. He did not fish the BPTs last year but did qualify for Redcrest via a win in TW Invitational last year at lake of the Ozarks. The dudes a beast.
I think it was a year ago or so he was still not using a
spot lock trolling motor and had no transducer in the front of the boat. If he can pull off great finishes without doing the Forward facing sonar he is a real legend
John Cox found a combination that works for him (apparently). If he decides to move to a spotlock TM and FFS I’m sure most of the other competitors response will “Well $h!+, Game Over”.
Or, maybe he won’t trade in his current setup, because he’s been kicking everybody’s a$$ on a regular basis without a change.
Use what works for you.

He seems like a great guy. The KISS method seems to work for him. Fewer distractions that way anyway.

Treat others like you want to be treated when on the water EVEN WHEN IN A TOURNAMENT! No fish is worth having a confrontation because you cut someone off or came in on top of someone.
I am pretty sure he even went to a smaller boat this year?

Yes that is correct...I recall hearing him talk about it on BASS Live at Lake Fork. I don't recall the exact size of the boat but I'm thinking it was 19ft or possibly 20ft but I'm thinking 19. I do remember he said it has a 200 Mercury. His reason for downsizing was for a more shallow draft and easier maneuverability. Cox is all in on the KISS method (Keep It Stupid Simple). He is 100% all about being practical and not overthinking things and working his strengths. The vast majority of time this would be a kiss of death on a level like he plays (Elite, BPT,NPFL and other high stakes entry fee tournaments) but yet he somehow makes it profitable for him. After all he is the ONLY angler fishing the top 3 level championships this year. He left the NPFL championship to go to the Redcrest and left there to compete in the Classic. ol Cox and his happy go lucky keep it simple attitude is what makes him a blast to watch.
