We as crappie fishermen have to sit back and look at livescope.
I watched some of the crappie masters tournament and you have 2 men in the front watching a screen, cherry picking the largest fish. Soon there will be no large crappie to catch.
This has to be called catching, not fishing. Where did the skill to hunt them down, establish a pattern then start to catch fish.
anyone with half a brain can learn to use livescope and I think this is going to ruin crappie fishing as we know it. Find a bush use livescope to see if any crappie if not move on, if some are there cherry pick the large ones and move to next bush with crappie.
people post on here about catching a limit and show the large ones that they caught, this can do nothing but be harmful to the crappie population.
I know a guide on Enid that there are almost no large crappie left.
let’s go back to the old days and throw the livescope away. If it continues there will be regulations that will take care of it.
a professional crappie fisherman might as well stay home without livescope. SAD!!!
