@@MountainArea-nw7ip I might need to make an appearance in Nebraska soon for some fishing lol. I will let you guys know

@MountainArea-nw7ip dude yes! For some reason it's hit or miss with finding those. I don't get it lol

@@beardedfishingchats some walmarts have them

@@MountainArea-nw7ip I did not see that bro. That must have been huge!

lol thanks pal. Appreciate that

He has passionate fans that's for sure. They aren't always right though but I appreciate and admire their passion for what they believe in. I will just simply argue back with the same passion and conviction

Good deal brother! Happy to hear it. Hope all is well sir

Thank you for your comment Jed, I appreciate you sharing your take on the matter.

Peter- thanks for the comment. I have mentioned in my next video that will be up tomorrow that I wish technology would have never invaded fishing. However, reality is that technology has invaded fishing and in many cases its a useful tool. For example, lakes that have massive fishing pressure, I would bet that most of the guys are using some sort of technology up to and including forward facing sonar. In those cases, if you aren't doing the same, you are at a disadvantage. I wish we could go back to the days of no technology that will never happen, so my belief is that you can use technology to your benefit, possibly catch more fish, and ultimately enjoy the sport more

You nailed it. People are catching, not fishing these days.

Thank you bro. Appreciate the support

Goose! What's up bro?

Thanks for the comment man. I appreciate the opinion though I respectfully disagree

No skill involved, .....

Very fair point man. I am doing another video soon about what I agree with when it comes to those two. I think there are downfalls to technology including what you are talking about. I simply advocate for moderate use of technology. I think you made a good point though. I will have another video about this up soon. Make sure you subscribe if you enjoy the content. Thanks again for your comment

Thank you bro

Joshua, no problem man. I respect your opinion. I wouldn't expect everyone to agree with me. Hope all is well

That's okay, we don't discriminate lol, but we do appreciate beards on this channel. Thanks for the comment

Scott I respect both Randy and Hank and I would think in tournament situations no one should have an unfair advantage. I do also believe though that technology can open up doors for many anglers. As long as it's done in the correct manner, most times I don't see it as a bad thing. Randy and Hank to me just give off the perception that they are against technology a lot but yet technology aka youtube has brought more people to fishing than ever. Just my two cents. No disrespect to Randy or Hank. Thanks for the comment Scott

@@beardedfishingchats I agree with Scott. I think your video misses the point. I also think your reply to Scott misses the point. Randy is not saying people can't use technology to fish, he is saying that in PRO Tournaments, FFS takes away some of the skill of finding and catching fish. It's not about the rest of the anglers. It's not about an even playing field or unfair advantage, its simply the point that in a PRO sport that is all about skill, FFS takes away some of the needed skill of finding and catching fish, so it is bad for the PRO sport.

So you really think young anglers are just driving out in the middle like throwing their scope down in the water finding a random fish and catching it? Young anglers have used scope for their entire fishing careers. This has accelerated their growth as an angler and has allowed them to learn more about fish and fish behavior. These younger guys, especially have figured out a way to break down a large area of water by using mapping technology to find areas where bass are most concentrated, they are able to utilize real time imaging to determine the mood of the fish and are able to switch gears and switch lures, depending on that behavior on that particular day. This is a whole system of understanding, bass and bass behavior. It is definitely not point and catch tool.

Awesome point! lol this made my day

Dude I can't agree with you more! I harvest my fish and have never caught more 10 to 13 pounders on ffs in my life! I can't agree with you more! This is truly a miracle!

@@garystewart9699 lol, if true you’d be Randy’s perfect controlled opposition 😂

​@garystewart9699 point proven. Until ffs most pros never caught a 10 most were lucky to get an 8. Your day doesn't understand

Thank you my good man! Appreciate it
