    Will FFS bring back

    Big seats to the front deck. It will bring you closer to the screens. You won’t have to bend over to adjust screens. Easier on your neck and back. Plus that’s a big area on the back of the seat for logos or your name

    The cool kids say any seat at all up front is lame. Plus, it gets in the way of the 25 rods said cool kid keeps up top and ready at all times.

    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 use my lean to seat up front all the time. Well when ever I get to go fishing that is. Most useful when one of the big wake/ski boats or other big yachts go by. Gives me something to hold onto when those big wakes get to rocking the boat.

    Have never used a fullsize folding crappie seat up front but if I was searching for crappie then I’d have no issue using a lazy boy seat up front.

    Don't know if FFS will bring back sit down seats, balance issues sure will.

    It's nice to sit down when doing the offshore video fishing thing too but I also keep the leaner up front all the time. I honestly don't know how people can stand on the front deck all day without at least something to lean on. Then again, I work 40 hours a week on my feet doing 20000+ steps a shift on concrete floors. I also have to take medication that effects my stability and my right side is more tense than my left side.

    I put on my butt seat on for the first time this past wknd and it was nice. I have the beatdown outdoors mount and had the graph waist high and leaned on the butt seat for balance. Will be doing this more often.

    I don’t know about bass but I have a bench seat stand that attaches to the front post with a screw & my buddy & me sure like it sitting side by side when scoping crappie & the home made mount I made having my graph at face level.

    I use my sit down seat all the time. Even bought the Bill Dance model gooseneck post for it. Caught 5 for around 23 lbs last Wednesday, all sitting down. And only 4 rods on deck. Amazing.

    With the wake boats, ski boats, PWC's etc. I will always need a lean-to or sit-on. Anyone who thinks or says anything.............more power to 'em! The Millennium seat works great for me.

    I always have my butt seat up front and my sit down in the back. If I need to swich em its a quick deal. I don't mind sitting down to fish especially on those long days.

    Yup, the cool young scopers are all rocking the butt seat again. A real culture shock for those of us that brave 3+ footers on the front deck refusing to put the Bill Dance seat in

    The butt seat saved my life. I was trying to get a lure off of a cable for a floating boat house. The cable slipped out of my hand and I would have sling shot into 35 degree water if I did not have the butt seat to grab on to on the way out

    I just recently went to my folding seat instead of my butt seat. Mainly because of Crappie fishing.

    After 50 years of standing to fish I don't have the balance I used to, plus the plantar fasciitis makes it hard to stand all day. So, I've found I can catch more fish sitting for 8 hours than standing for 3 or 4. Do I look like an old man crappie fishing? Don't care. Lol.
