Great take. This is a business decision plane and simply. Just because a vocal minority wants something, being the loudest minority in a room still makes you an minority. And believe me, Bassmaster did the numbers. They are looking way down the road. I would be interested in the viewership numbers from this season from a third party. Tight lines. Regards, Steven.
I think its a fair set of rules. 1 FFS transducer levels the playing field. 55" is plenty. Thats a 16" and 12" on the bow and 2 x 12" on the console. Or a 22" and 12" on the bow and a 16" on the console. A wider variety of different lakes is a good idea. I would like to see them take it one step further and only allow FFS sonar on half of the venues in the season. Either a rule that says the angler must nominate those venues he will use the FFS or BASS decides which venues it will be allowed. If they are serious about "conservation" then dont allow FFS on the northern swing and texas swing, that will also show you which anglers have the skill set.
BASS was in a tough spot. How do you make everyone happy? You can't. What I think is funny is how quickly they came out with this after the NPFL. That "business decision" got us talking about the NPFL but BASS' quick response gets us talking about them again real quick. Did they do enough? Only time will tell but it was the fairest decidision they could make.
@@cerebraltackle I’m saying I’d rather not have St. John’s on there lol. And they haven’t been to the Mississippi River in a few years so it will be good to see them back. I really like this schedule. Fork in May will be interesting and probably mostly a deep game at that point
@@cerebraltackle haha, it will be exciting to see. Love it. I have a few more weeks in my north central pa bass league (smallmouth), to hold onto a 4 lb lead and hopefully win the league for my partner and I’s first time
@@cerebraltackle I’m saying in our meeting Friday it was told to us about the investigative team and the limitations on screens and 1 FFS transducer on the front of the boat would probably be the end result, at that time nothing about the crappie brakes were mentioned.
@@georgemauries7462 it was only mentioned that it was part of what was being examined. Again, it was after we had already floated the idea up the chain.

Now if President Trump goes to jail Randy Blockhead will be having a wet dream. I bet him $10,000 President Trump will never spend a day in jail and he wouldn't take me up on it. I kind of understand because if he lost that would mean all his tournament winnings for the past 20 years would be down the drain. He, also, hates Josh Hawley one of his own Senators who I think is a great guy...
@brianprice7645 I agree that it needed to be pulled back a bit. Some anglers were going hog wild with it. But to ban it, was going over the deep end. All they needed to do was regulate it. Now they have. Good job, BASS.
How dare you talk about such a rock solid whiner. He is a legend that has made multiple sacrifices and contributed to the sport of crying and being a douche bag.. 😂😅😅. I never could stand him. He's one of those that make you wonder, "out of all the swimmers goin for the egg how did you make it..?" Haha.

I like it. A logical, compromising desicion that doesn't ban anything. The 55" of screens seems a bit excessive. But other than that, it seems very similar to the average guy's boat set-up. Throw in several river / shallow water venues like the Sabine, Mississippi river ect... and you'll help reduce the ffs dependency every tournament. That being said you'll still have some "Randys" that will bitch about it no matter what. But let's be honest the financial impact removing FFS would have on BASS or MLF from sponsors would have a huge impact. Money in my option either organization would be hard pressed to lose.
@@eatsquawklike not allowing FFS completely at least for a couple of events every year. I.e not allowed on Champlain, but allowed on Ochechobee, to spice it up

What is the difference with LVS 62 compared to the others?
@@TheFishdoctor1952 don't get me lying. 🤣
To my knowledge It’s a deep water powerful scope. Doesn’t work well in shallow water 20 feet or less.
It was a fair call on both sides , levels the playing field and puts more sportsmanship into the sport than technology

Aside from having the St. John’s river again, I really like the schedule for next year, especially ending at the Mississippi River
Ugh. It can't be ALL shallow water. Besides, the Johnston brothers would cry like little bitches.
