They just wanted free help for their next tournament, while others wanted to challenge the OP (Bill not withstanding) regarding their reports. I'm just an old grump according to some, but I can promise you this ... the quickest way to lose someone's free help is to challenge them on what they are trying to tell you. Translation: Don't ask one of the best guides to ever fish Table Rock how to catch fish and then say they're lying when they lay it out for you down to the precise lure, depth and presentation. With pics, even. The real truth is that some folks just suck at fishing. Period. But rather than own that and try to learn something, they dispute the source of their intel. And that's a forum killer. No one is going to keep spending their own time, money and talent to be undercut by some lazy-butt who wants the world laid at their feet. I’ve been fishing a couple of times a week for the past couple months. But the internet voices have made it very apparent that they have no use for reports that involve or utilize FFS . The last thing I want to do is start another argument on that crap. So I remain silent . I really enjoy reading Dutch and Quills reports and anyone else who posts. Sad the hot topic yesterday was a bifocal post haha. nomolites and snagged in outlet 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't complain about it, or bash it, in any way, or else 60% of the Bass/Crappie fishing population will not like you. Not only will they not speak to you (unless they need/want something)....they won't even wave at you when you pass them on the road. Secondly, and more importantly to ME, is that now that I've experimented with it and know the kind of $#!t that fish actually do..... I'm far less interested in fishing for them 😕 I was way more happy and enthusiastic about fishing back when I wasn't 100% sure, but THOUGHT that I knew. I was mentally better off & happier before I ever started messing with livescope. And I think alot of middle-aged/Older guys were. Regardless of their own personal reasons. It's a TOOL alright .....but IMO it's like using a robot to pet your dog & kiss your wife.....Your dog loves to be petted, and your wife loves to be kissed....but neither will love YOU anymore. cheesemaster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reality is it’s no different than any other sight fishing; I’m thinking you were doing that last weekend. Fish can be frustrating, no matter how you look at them….but to get them to BITE!
