A Debatable Question..
I would like to hear what my fellow fisherman think! How do you feel about the use of fish finders. Do you think they provide an unneeded advantage in some cases? Maybe you never fish without one. Let us know! I for one do not have a problem with the fish finder in some lakes where you primary fish is Bass, But I have been fishing the resevoirs for twenty years and have earned every big fish both with time and effort. Now guys are hoppin in the boat lingering over a big blob on the fish finder, and lowering the bait down to the depth and pulling in big browns without any sort of skill. I myself do not respect a big trout caught with the use of the fish finder it machs the massive challenge these big Browns can provide. I will be back to post more on this topic shortly! Thanks for reading.

Well, I predominately fish saltwater. I am an avid red fisherman, I fish a ton of tournaments each year, and rarely ever use my fish finder. I mostly sight fish for my fish up on the grass flats of Florida. Now, that being said, I do use it when I’m looking for structure on the bottom or looking for a channel or a drop off. So much of what I do revolves around the tidal movement and the current, that looking for these places is a must. The tournaments I fish are artificial lures only and live bait is strictly prohibited, so the angler’s skill is a real must.
Thanks for the input Chris, We welcome comments from experienced anglers like yourself.
Fish On!
