• Livescoping with vbottom

    Caught some nice crappie with vbottom and his wifey. Yay



    Livescoping’em. Pretty cool to see them hit.


    We longlined like I usually do where we fished, and caught squat. We spent most of our time longlining. So once we changed it up and targeted structure with the livescope, we finally caught some. We only caught 5 crappie, one bass and one brim, but they were nice ones. Correct me if I'm wrong Jeff, but one was 13 inches. And the other four I believe were, 12.75. 12.50, 12.50 and one 11 incher. And this time of the year, they fight real good. Was fun Jeff, have to do it again.

    I had a blast playing with that livescope! Was cool being there and seeing him catch his first livescope fish. I saw the first fish Slab caught come up and take the bait. He said he didn't feel it just lifted and was there. The two I caught later came streaking out of the submerged trees we were fishing and smacked it. Kinda like playing a video game. Could be addicting...lol..those sizes were accurate and I think the cooler water put a little fight in them. I didn't get a pic of the brim he caught, but it was a nice one. Michelle and I had a great time and appreciate you taking us out Ed. Looking forward to seeing you again at the Michigan camp up at Houghton.

      So that was your boat and a new Livescope for you Slab? Great day on the water for sure. Know you love your longlining but you have to change it up when you have that kind of tech and GFY guys that you caught some fish with it.

      Ed- doesn't Livescope also give you a long line advantage? Fwd. scan for directional schools to troll thru?
