Brandon it took me at least 1.5 years to learn most all the things you pointed out in this video. Expecially when you cannot see your jig to move your transducer so you can see it, that’s the most important thing I got out of this video.😊

[@carlreed9357]

What is it about new technology. I'm 64 and I have seen the battles over traditional archery vs compound, flasher vs 2D, long range hunting vs standard distance shooting. I love what you said use what suits YOU!!!! I would love to have FFS but I am disabled and it just is not within my reach but I am not going to belittle anyone from using it. People have forgotten what fishing is all about FUN and fishing ain't much fun when you are not catching them!!

My favorite bass pro!👊🏻

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@williamjenkins3720 thank you sir

[@ronknight779]

How do you keep your light jig from wrapping around your heavier split shot?

[@jameshorn6848]

Thanks for this, Brandon. I’m trying to learn before I purchase, this video really helped. Good luck in your tournaments

[@leestrickland937]

Great video,, like all of your videos! I have garmin live scope I love it! It saves me time, not fishing dead water!! Keep'em coming!!!

[@jeffduncan2942]

It’s funny, I caught around 1200 crappie last spring with no FFS and this year I have it and all my school are not producing. They will follow and turn away. Idk what’s going on. I stay back off of them and everything I can think of

Thanks a lot for this video, I run a 9” Elite FS9 and was wondering if you had any recommendations for better visibility on the smaller screens

[@Phoenix-nl2ut]

Yes. Livescope isn’t going anywhere.

[@solomonott633]

Good job Brandon good info I use Garmin and I live it I just fish crappie. again good job.

[@JeremyThompson21]

A 7" screen was all I could afford and it's worked great. Live scope changed my fishing capabilities a ton. I can tell if a brush pile is full of crappie or bluegill and move on to more productive spots.

[@slabhappylures]

Well said my friend. I am a convert have been for almost 3 years .

[@caseysutton2673]

Keep these videos coming!

[@shank1862]

Excellent video Bro!

[@elkbow]

Stick a micro SD card in that lowrance and use screen record, can see what you're talking about. Lol

[@kdsoulrice]

Very informative!

[@spikesb1]

Good video!

[@garyscott9539]

Awesome info I agree 💯 %. If you don’t like ffs move on and enjoy what you do. Still can’t make them bite just because you have Ffs. Thanks for the video and information.

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@garyscott9539 exactly right. Thanks for watching!

[@mikewiles463]

Thank you brandon, i bought my live scope last year and i enjoy it every time i go out!

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@mikewiles463 thanks for watching!

[@johnhalverson4114]

One of these days I’ll have live scope … cause in times like you right there you would never know those fish were there.

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@johnhalverson4114 it definitely helps you find fish faster. Thanks for watching!

[@bill7949]

Thanks for information.try to put to use.

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@bill7949 thanks for watching!

[@johnhalverson4114]

The cove shape on top of motor can help to tell ya where you’re looking.

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@johnhalverson4114 I don’t use it but yes it can

[@tedguillory7787]

What the best line setup for seeing your bait easier?

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@tedguillory7787 you can see any line if your unit is setup properly but I like braid with a flurocarbon leader. It shows up best.

[@shurdenfishing]

For crappie…do you feel like 40-50ft out is best for being able to see your jig and also not spooking the school?

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@shurdenfishing I do yes

[@TinDeez]

Great video....thanks

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

[@rodneygreen9968]

Brandon, wait until the Next Technology of New "Live Time" is released. It will reveal the species & size of fish on a screen. Your mind will be blown away with the help of AI Intelligence.. Mark my Words.

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@rodneygreen9968 it’s headed that direction I’m sure. Thanks for watching!

[@rodneygreen9968]

@@BrandonLesterFishing Brandon, I heard that from a Great information. With the technology of AI & Sonnar, it will be possible.

[@elbertfarley374]

Great show

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@elbertfarley374 thanks

[@ronknight779]

Love this format!!! Headed out tomorrow to apply this for a mess of crappie with my megalive!

[@BrandonLesterFishing]

@@ronknight779 good luck! Thanks for watching

[@ronknight779]

Minute 18 advice is golden. I’m guilty of making my cast and not having my foot on the trolling motor to allow feather scanning to locate my jig as the boat drifts.

[@ronknight779]

Caught 21 big ones! Thanks for the tips!!
