  Should tournaments limit forward facing sonar, or should anglers be free to use the technology they have?

  I would argue ffs changed the entire sport not old guys complaining

  He’s 20, how much life experience does he have?  Too many of the young guys have massive egos and tiny respect.

  47..grew up fishing the old school way of course. I use mega live 2 and I love it. But I won't watch tournaments anymore because they are boring to me. It's just not fun to watch

  Im 26 and use live scope, but that was a dumb take. Saying that the guys that caught them in the tourney on topwater was luck?😂 Kaden Buchmann is 22 and he figured them out without it and won. Go watch the interviews panger did with both of those guys. Night and day difference in their attitudes.

  Ffs is garbage in a tournament setting and if you don't see that then you don't see how destructive it really is.

  They shouldn't restrict forward facing but they also shouldn't be banning boat types like tunnel hulls when they get their butt kicked by somebody running up a shallow river. Open the flood gates and see how creative people can get to catch a bass

  I’m 53 and I see both sides. I wish I had a ffs after seeing what you can do with it and thinking about the countless hours I spent throwing a lure or watching a bobber float waiting for something to bite and now realizing I was probably throwing and waiting in a spot that contained zero fish to even think about fishing. I also remember watching the old timers break down a lake and catch monsters off nothing more than knowledge and technique. I would like to see 2 tours one with and one without and see which one gets more viewers or fan fair. With the cost of trying to fish a big tour sponsors have to be a big part of the equation money wise and we all know they are really only going to care about who can sale their merch the best because if their sponsor dollars don’t result in sales growth they will stop spending the money. Using a FFS will have to wait for me though because with prices the way they are on everything these days and the fact I don’t make 180-200gs a year it’s all I can do to buy some bait and put gas in the boat and truck. So I’ll just keep throwing and hoping to get lucky like he said I guess.

  He’s getting hate because he’s clearly never worked a day in his life and has rich parents who have paid for everything. He’s a spoiled little brat. He’s just mad because he can’t catch fish without the scope and just finished near last and is mad. He’s not an angler, he’s a video gamer. Big difference.

  At 64, I was always a side image type guy,just got a 15" screen, because I don't see as well anymore, and 360. I freaking love it  ,won a Wednesday night derby and saw every fish I caught. It's amazing technology for sure

  It's not real fishing,  A-rig is illegal,  but FFS isn't.  Give me a break.
