Yeah, I got a couple buddies that "win" thousands at the casinos three or four nights a week too.

Can barely pay their rent or put gas in the car but they've got this gambling thing all figured out.

To hear them tell it they make Rainman look like a hack.

Same sorta deal.

Wheeler finished 2nd again on Erie today.  Another $35K for him.

2oz from win. Those 2 oz were worth $125k. Top shelf caviar you could say.

It's not a coincidence that the top two guys had mega 360 and livescope on there rig. I have mega 360 on my z21 and it's a game changer. Can't imagine having both. I think it's a little unfair, especially when other competition don't have that resource. I'm not even counting aqua Vu that Lucas was using.

I think it is plenty  fair, some guys just choose to run electronics that are behind the curve..cough cough...lowrance.  Im sure Wheeler or Lucas could have a sponsorship by any electronics company they want but they choose not to so they can have it all

They should be limited to one 12” finder at the bow and one at the wheel. No underwater cameras. These are pros. If golf allowed this crap then Phil would play with 20 different wedges and multiple caddies. All of this trickles down the ranks. A guy shouldn’t be priced out of being able to compete. We all know who this actually benefits and it’s really not the fisherman.

Exactly!! Especially in smallie tournaments, and if you know what you are talking about, you will agree bottom line!

Every single one of them can use those resources, they just choose to use the company that writes the biggest check.  Wheeler is clear when he says that he chose to buy all 3 on his own coin this year and its helped him win over 350,000 bucks in 1 year. He made a video explaining his reasoning and not a single person should blame him.  Is it almost like cheating....seems that way but if that option is open to everyone then it levels that playing field.

When you side scan a sand flat with isolated boulders and know there not drum because of aqua Vu! There's a straight advantage on the tour. Trust me because I know people that are pissed, if don't have 15 to 20 grand in electronics then wave the white flag and that's the bottom line!!
