Im a bank fisher so electronics do me no good. Part of the fun of fishing is figuring where the bass are on your OWN!

[@user-xm8rf6ik7b]

Exactly! When people realize these guys with all the electronics aren’t fisherman. A fisherman is a guy that goes out and finds them on his own .

Watching the backs of bass fishermen looking down at their electronics during the entire television broadcast is definitely disappointing.

Yeah I know man and watching their backs prior to FFS as they cast and cast and cast and not catch anything was really terrible to watch as well. It’s the exact same thing. Instead of looking forward, now they look down.

[@juanchaves2971]

This argument always makes me think of the time when Takahiro Omori won the Classic years ago. He went to this place where the water was muddy and there was a little bit of current, and he just was there on pure instinct- His instincts were screaming at him where to fish, and he went with his instincts- there were NO ELECTRONICS to tell him there were some hawgs up in that brush- He had years and years of dedication, years and years on the water, he had turned his brain into a bass finding computer- and on that day his brain had figured them out better than anyone else- And when he set the hook on that huge hawg that nailed his crankbait- He kept saying over and over ¨I knew it!!!! I knew it!!! I knew the fish would be here!¨ So here is the tragedy- The joy and the thrill that Takahiro felt on that day when he FIGURED OUT where the fish would be and then he won the classic- These guys now days will never experience a thrill like that in bass fishing...Without those stupid machines they probably couldn´t even catch a bluegill with a cricket and a bobber. Gimme 1985 anyday- Bill Dance versus Roland Martin Versus Tom Mann versus Jimmy Houston... That was REAL BASS FISHING! They had those slow crappy boats with a flash unit- and they knew MORE about bass fishing than these modern pros will ever understand, period! And as a child, I loved to watch those tournaments on TV!!!!

When people say just because you see them on FFS doesn't mean they will bite are wrong. Scott Martin proved that at the tournament at Lake Okeechobee where he chased down this big bass for 1hour until he caught it. Instead of it being a reaction bite it was an irritated bite. Irritate them until they bite.

There’s absolutly zero data to back up any of these claims. None, no scientific data or any other. FFS has been around for a long time, especially in the crappie world and every fishery around that I know of is just as healthy. It’s a bogus claim with no data to back it up and that’s been proven over and over and over again.

Ray Scott is rolling in his grave. How can you ban things like the number of lines on the water at one time, the maximum allowable rod length allowed, the number of hooks allowed on an Alabama rig, etc, but yet you can have 7 giant graphs and 12 different transducers ? What’s next using drones over flats with range finders or using underwater drones with cameras so you can count how many fish are on a structure and confirm their the correct species and size ? I totally agree Randy that the guys winning now are mostly talentless hacks. It’s like a Sim Racing driver competing against an actual professional driver in a real car on a real track. In reality they’re not even close in terms of talent. Fishing is being dominated by lazy gamers right now NOT professional fisherman.

Not a single one of us have any chance at cashing $100,000 checks 6-9 times a year. Not a single one of us rely on this to put food on the table. If you’re a recreational fisherman, buying a $100,000 Ikon/Cat/Vexus/Phoenix/FXR. You’re either filthy rich, have money to blow, use it as a tax write off, or care too much about what people think. If you’re a rec fisherman with 6x 12”-16” graphs on your boat, you’re outside your needs. You don’t have to buy a LX21, VX21, 921 elite, FXR21, F21 Predator etc. i have a ‘20 F195 Falcon, with 2 helix 10s at the console that came on the boat, a helix 10 and Garmin 126 with LS at the bow. The boat has 28hrs on it when i bought it in ‘21 and I paid 56k for that boat. I had a ‘97 Sprint 286 before that. My truck is a 2015 Silverado. And i have a bunch of boxes of ol monsters, jigs, crank baits, and creature/craw baits. I’ve cashed in $3k-$8k checks out of both boats. MULTIPLE 30lb+ bags, With and without LS, on a $4 pack of Junebug ol monsters, and some cheap ass strike king foot ball jigs. Again, if someone is rec fishing, and spending that kind of money, that’s their own decision… kinda like the pros that use FFS, nobody makes you do that. Period.

We were on Rayburn a couple weeks ago in the tournament and all you seen is people standing on the front of their boats staring at a screen trying to catch deep water fish. Just ridiculous. Its not that Im ticked I dont have one, I just dont think it should be allowed in High School. Not all kids can afford to have FFS setup. Make these kids all fish on a level playing field. At least at a minimum, have FFS allowed tournaments and FFS not allowed tournaments. I would like to see all these anglers bring in the fish they catch without FFS. It wont happen.

[@rockyj2008]

I quit watching ALL bass tournaments due to FFS and won’t watch any till it’s banned. That’s not fishing….I’m 78 and still fishing. Also the millions of panfish they’re catching….DISGUSTING!!!

[@doggydog643]

this is exactly right....don't feel outraged and then flip on an MLF or Elite Tour event...nothing changes that way.

[@jdawg3873]

I’ve been a BassMaster member for 15 years.. I’ve emailed them & let them know how boring watching the Elite Series is.. I don’t plan to renew my membership & that’s sad.. I hope they do the right thing. It’s getting totally out of hand

[@Insurance-Rep]

Watching bassmaster for hours on end is not a comparison to what you may have watched in the past. You used to watch a one hour show loaded with fish catches. Would you consider watching an angler go jig fishing for several hours where you might get six bites all day. I consider Blaukat as a knowledgable fisherman who has much to offer but he is the one who used to jump over logs and load his boat with water to enter areas that would normally be off limits. Thus the rules were changed to prevent this from happening. The one thing that FFS has proven is that 90% of the fish are behind you if you are casting towards the shore, something that Elwood "Buck" Perry brought forth more than fifty years ago.

[@nflisrigged1395]

Same with MLF . Not all use it but most and the one's who win , do.

[@alanweisner2421]

I too love Dangerous and what they do. I watched the video yesterday and my take away ? Every veteran he interviewed either said they wanted to go back to fishing or, they clearly were uncomfortable having it in their boats. Plus, the vets had the least amount on the boats. You could see it in their eyes, even Scot Martens body language showed the discomfort. They are clearly being forced into this and honestly, they are stuck. Great great video and will help bring more light to the ridiculous nature of how things have become. 👌

[@outdoorsmavilia]

Hell yea Randy , spot on man . This might be one of your best videos

[@motherlodebassin5369]

No sport in pro fishing anymore

[@bradcarson6070]

🤣😂 It's absolutely hilarious that Randy is "losing sleep" over it!

[@jimmyDhargis]

The man is passionate about his stances, u gotta give him that

[@clintskala26]

I saw that video yesterday and my first thought was Randy’s head is going to explode! 🤯

[@scott17674]

Well spoken, intelligent man. Very impressive. Thanks for being a Leader Randy!

[@DropTheBunny]

Well said Randy. I don’t compete in tournaments at all. I fish because I love it and grew up with it, but I still feel like fishing has gotten exceedingly worse since FFS became more and more popular. I live on the Potomac River. Occasionally MLF tournaments will come by and blow up all my spots and I sit there and shake my head at them all staring at their screens, taking away healthy chunks to weigh in somewhere else, where the fish will inevitably die from the stress of being in a live we’ll all day.

[@Nutakins]

Amen. Keep fighting the good fight Randy, thank you!

[@FJB.8567]

If they can ban the Alabama rig they can band FFS.

[@garyhinds9634]

Well said Randy spot on

[@louisianag]

It is crazy seeing. I've been fishing my whole life and in just last 3 years i have a helix 7g3 on dash and i love it for mapping. Never had another graph

[@bell4289]

Totally agree with your concerns! With advanced sonar technology on the rise, it will kill Bass Master! You can no longer call this fishing!

[@mvillasuso]

REAL fishermen know that you're our voice in this discussion, Randy. Thanks for helping us be heard.

[@randyblaukatintuitive]

Thx man!

[@robertwright1782]

It is more than out of hand. I am so sad this has happened. But no different than sad about much of what is happening in so many other things now!

[@stonerock1980]

That is beyond ridiculous.😮

[@xbass70]

You are 100% correct. Deer hunting with a thermal image drone is not hunting. That is why its illegal. Fair chase is important. We can drain the lake and pick up the fish with a shovel. We could have a robot with a shovel do it. The states need to ban them. I would eliminate side imaging as well. The live imaging is beyond acceptable.

[@HowardWilliams-kb7lv2hr8k]

Randy you've been spot on about all the things you've talked about concerning FFS. I watched the video last night myself and the amount of electronics on all of the boats is absolutely 💯 ridiculous. 5 to 8 graphs 4 transducers and let's not forget the newest thing Boat breaks of all things up to $60K just to fish.

[@kpocala1061]

Thank you Randy for speaking out.

[@MyBizGuide8]

Yep, more people are starting to catch on. Good job, Randy!

[@markb1967]

Amen well said sir !!!

[@clarkbourgeois7661]

We were at Cypress Bend for the day one weigh in and the amount of gear hanging off the front of all these boats lined up was mind blowing. It also made my teenage son mention what we "need" to put on our Skeeter. I have always said this tournament stuff is not fishing, but it sure makes an efficient way to harvest gamefish.

[@KI-dc9ok]

My forward facing sonar is bluetoothed to my dc reel so the perfect amount of line is cast and the reel is self cranking so the corresponding bait runs at the right distance and depth.

[@jvfishingfever]

Well said Randy! This is like NASCAR allowing auto pilot in race cars, just crazy!

[@MegaBassbite]

Randy I am thoroughly disgusted.... like I said yesterday I deleted my BASS and MLF KZbin apps AND WILL NOT WATCH THEM ON TV EVER AGAIN UNTIL THIS FFS CRAP IS GONE..... I hope they flat out dissappear if no change is made as I don't even care anymore what happens to either organization

[@TimK4343]

I feel the extact same way Randy! I watched Chris’ video the other day and you could just tell every single one of the pros were almost embarassed at what is needed to compete and where we are going in the sport.

[@highjenks3d]

The self propelled ai smart lure with hook deployment camera included

[@shoplife8103]

The camera has always been on the back of there head watching a bait under water that we couldn’t see to begin with 🤣🤣🤣 with the occasional top water

[@teebowersox458]

I enjoy watching the ffs screen as it teaches us another way to fish

[@frankgilroy3189]

Randy, can you please do a video on your boat and electronic set up, its cost and how you use it? It would be most helpful. Thank you.

[@Radican1]

Well shoot. Best advertising for Zaldangerous you could ever do. Never watched that channel but how could I not go watch this video now!!!

[@steezy3998]

Zaldain mentioned someone using VR goggles with their graph in one of his podcasts. Just crazy

[@ryanreynolds9788]

I’ve been tournament fishing since I was 12 years old and then last two years have been the worst two tournament seasons of my life. I hate FFS and know it definitely has hurt my success rate. So many fish are getting caught in the middle of our lakes that probably die, due to delayed mortality. Hope we have fish to catch years from now, but don’t know what will happen. I agree with you 100% Randy. It’s so sad.

[@jamescoale2833]

Your spot on Randy.

[@carolinasonsoutdoors2483]

I have a depth finder on the front for depth and temp, and a down scan side scan for when I’m driving. And sometimes I get lucky to catch a fish I don’t have the skills yet.

[@user-bj1tz2uh6q]

Well said Randy. I watched the BASS tournament at Lake Fork and one of the contestants said at weigh in you either embrace the electronics or you loose. I miss the skill that we used to see from a seasoned pro, instead of watching a tv screen of someone with a rod in hand watching a screen.

[@jrose5595]

I haven't watched any coverage this year and it used to be my favorite thing on TV. My buddies say the same thing.

[@garretkeller9058]

Randy, Thank you for standing tall on this issue. Me and my kids use to bond over fishing and watching bass tournaments. My kids like video games but even they do not like watching anglers staring at a screen. They have lost all interest in watching fishing tournaments which really sucks! FFS has ruined fishing! And kids and adults interest in watching the sport of bass fishing

[@davidallison976]

Go back to the old days where the classic no one knew where it was( they all got on a plane together.) then when they arrived the boats were identical. Then you were allowed 50lbs of tackle!!! That was fun to watch!
