It's NOT as EASY as it looks!

- In this video I talk about the intricacies of Forward Facing Sonar and how it's not as easy as some people make it out to be. It requires a whole lot more skill than most realise. Of course I also include some pretty cool fish catches!
Thanks for the tips, Jacob. Great video
Great explanation. Keep videos coming Jacob
VERY NICE JACOB!!!!!! I like how your trending with these videos. I look forward to you being a force this year.
You need to do more Industry information that’s what gets subs and clicks!!
You described FFS better than anyone on you tube
You are an honest man and this is why I’m here
😂went out last weekend. See so many fish on livescope. But no takers. Skunk day for me😂
Rick Clunn said the same thing about how inefficient he was at fishing compared to how efficient he can be with FFS. At 77, it's tougher on the body to make unnecessary cast in a tournament as well.
Thanks for sharing, Jacob... 🍺🎣
Would love to see a video on what settings you like best based on different conditions.
Great video
Thanks for another great video! Molly says in 4 years when i retire, FFS will be a good retirement present.
By then something else will be out lol
That's where the twin TM's on your anchors work!
Can you make a NBT video, show us how it lays out with multiple screens on display
I hate it but you explained it so well honestly
toward the end of the vid I noticed your other graph on mapping. Can you relay how you set that up as it relates to FFS? Are you primarily looking for FFS fish on flats, break lines, what?
Jacob how dose you tell the species of fish you are looking at ?
What was the air and water temp that day?
There's no doubt it's a big big big advantage
I want a NBT!! Maybe after Raptors
As someone strapped for money....would it be beneficial for livescope etc or equipment in general to be restricted in some way? Rather than having to keep up with everyone?
I definitely understand that side of things, but I’m not sure where you draw the line. This has been an ongoing issue in the sport for some time now and nothings ever happened so I wouldn’t assume anything happens. I think you could possibly see some limitations but it’s not going anywhere.
@@jacobfoutzfishing I'm not saying go away. But limits. So you don't need to spend $50k to be on level ground.
I truly don’t see FF hurting bass populations. Maybe a super small lake it might but big lakes like Chickamauga I just don’t see it!
Jacob in your mind in years to come do u think it’s going to hurt bass populations ?
I’m not sure it’s going to have a huge impact on the bass population. Crappie, catfish, panfish I mean I could maybe see it.
@@jacobfoutzfishing Happy New Year , to u and the family Jacob and just want to say thanks for answering bro
Jacob have the mallards showed up by you ?
Shoot I haven’t hardly been out looking for them! To many bass to catch!
@@jacobfoutzfishing I can tell you without a doubt , there is none in South Louisiana , no mallards in the timber and no Greys or widgeon , or pintail in the marsh here neither it sucks
@@jacobfoutzfishing even Goose hunting here is horrible too , Gueydan does not have any specks it’s terrible
#letsgofishin
Who is the dude just chilling ? Watching u fish
That would be my dad
I understand what you just said on that video it's just the same as when you are on fishing I don't see why it's a URL on a boat and we are on shore fishing we can do the same move on to a different
I wish I could understand what this is saying.
@@jacobfoutzfishingDon’t feel bad because I don’t have a clue what he is saying.
I was completely confused with this as well. No offense
11:02. Say no more. What's so hard about that....
i guess i see both sides of the debate or argument. Of course, we all want to catch more bass, but when a trolling motor shaft has 3 transducers, does that not seem a little ridiculous? Does a limit not need to be set somewhere? I feel like the less relatable the professional level anglers get to the average weekend club angler, the less popular the sport will be and from where I stand, it would appear that bass fishing needs to remain relatable, and the anglers and leagues need every fan they can get. To potentially appease both sides and the electronic companies at the same time, I would support a limit. I like the idea of a single transducer per trolling motor and something like 24 inches of screen on the bow and another 24" at the console. Just to draw some type of line, but again that's just my opinion and I respect everyone's opinion. I want to see the sport grow and the anglers prosper and so whatever can make that happen I will support.
Your net gains for adding another transducer is so small. You can only track and fish one at a time
Agreed. If limited to 1, anglers would have to choose between scope and 360. It would be interesting to see what transducer anglers would go with if they were limited to just 1. I’m sure 95% of them would use FFS and the other 5% being sponsored by bird. But for now, they can have a shaft or multiple shafts with multiple transducers mounted. I just think its too much.
Keep help running the sport into the ground, I may be wrong but we’ll see the long term negative effects are on the fisheries
Exactly correct, I had one and it's easy to use and get good at, this and what's coming will devastate fishing, and for those who only fish 10 times a year on lakes it will be impossible to be successful, where is the line we won't cross? Got rid of mine it made me feel less human. If we stop using them now it will take15 yrs to recover crappie, walleye, bass populations,
I will. Don’t worry
Jacob,
It doesn't make em jump in the boat easy.
With that being said it's really not that difficult and makes the process of finding bass and catching them much more simple. Especially the deeper they are.
So everyone watching if you don't have FFS you best get it or your going to get left behind. FFS is absolutely nessicarry if you're trying to go professional and Jacob you need stress that it's the most important tool at this time in the industry.
Keyboard warriors because they call BS? Fishing is challenging, but anyone that says FFS isn't an advantage is lying through their teeth. If it's not an advantage, why is it on your boat and most, if not all other tournament boats? Because if you don't have it, you can't compete with the guys that do use FFS, because they would have the advantage. OK, you may see hundreds of fish a day on the screen but can't catch them. What about "fishing" for them when you can't see them? Which way has the advantage? A wildlife resource group said they have confirmed that FFS has increased crappie catch ratio at least 1.5x, but they can't confirm FFS has increased bass catch ratio. Why did they not commit to saying FFS has increased bass catch ratio, because it's money driven by sponsors and tournaments. That's why it will not be banned from tournament bass fishing.
All of you "professional" anglers keep pushing the use of FFS, wait until the teens good with electronics and have a large social media following which will get sponsors, replaces many tournament fishermen. It will become, who is good with electronics, not who is a good fisherman.
I could care less if they continue to allow FFS tournament fishing, never tournament fished. I just call BS on the tournament guys that claim there are no advantages to fishing with FFS but kick and scream when banning FFS in tournaments is discussed. FFS is eliminating the need for skill and experience.
Electronics are making people dumb, lazy and incompetent.
😂😂😂😂😂 it’s absolutely an advantage. Never said it wasn’t. Just not as easy as people like you think. It’s on my bot because I love using it and I’m good at it. It’s incredibly naive of you to say it getting rid of the need for skill or experience but pop off.
