Thread: Article: “Chasing Fish” – The Garmin Livescope in Action By Bernard Williams

Good read

Can you say "Thank you Roswell"? Think about it.

Since the market made these units available most of the professional crappie anglers use the chase method . I know some guys that boated 50 fish over 2 lbs in a day last year in the winter following them around and only targeting the big fish .

Good read, welcome to modern day crappie fishing,

Great information.

My comments are just that, my own. I feel live scope fishing, along with side imaging will be the death of tournament fishing due to the lack of participation on the local level. Most folks don't know that side imaging is needed to locate the fish, and live scope is used to dial them in. (Another additional expense) Most folks can't afford a $5,000 +++ sonar units. If you can't compete without one, why would you compete at all. The so called "Pro Circuit" is not that many of these guys/gals are better fishermen, it's that they can afford the technology that makes them appear to be better anglers. I have competed in over 100 tournaments, both national and local events. I've been fortunate enough to have won a couple of Crappie Masters, a couple Crappie USA, and numerous local tournaments. I've used nothing but my fishing knowledge in conjunction with time of year, past experiences, tagged with grit , determination, and always a little luck , You want to level the playing field, remove all electronics from boats, give each angler one pole and turn them loose. The creme would then rise to the top.
