Live scope should 💯 be banned from any tournament fishing for any species. They completely cut out the fishing aspect, there is no skill involved and it's going to completely destroy fisheries.

@jakebryan955 2 ай бұрын

I use a Hawkeye fish/depth finder on my kayak. Got it from Amazon for the purpose of knowing how deep the water is. Outside of that, I agree with you 💯!!!

@RiverCertified 2 ай бұрын

I definitely would be cool with it getting banned. I'd even be cool with side imaging getting banned. I will also agree that it changes the fishing aspect of it. Feels more like ice fishing than open water fishing. However, to say there is no skill involved, I will respectfully disagree on that.

@josephwalsh988 2 ай бұрын

I accept that. I may have been a bit hyper-critical saying that there is no skill involved. One of the issues I have with it is being used in tournaments (bass, catfish, etc.) is because it's definitely an unfair advantage. This is the same reason I don't hunt over bait for deer or bear, and I don't agree with sight fishing bass off of a spawning bed. It removes a bit of the requisite skill set for actually fishing. This is just my opinion and if anyone wants to use FFS that is perfectly fine with me, but I will stick to depth finders and water temp, moon phase, time of year, and a little luck to help catch fish. I mean no disrespect to anyone using FFS and have several friends that use it, it's just not for me.
