Who else is noticing this out of control graphing trend? I mean, we’re on a small power plant lake and I watched 4 boats in an hour graph and fish the same community point. Dude, no need to graph it if you know you are gonna fish it. None caught a fish so apparently they don’t really know what they are graphing and we’re gonna fish it no matter what they saw, so why graph? And this was on a Friday! Imagine what the fish are thinking on a Saturday….

I actually have 2 favorite types of graphers.
1- The guy that sees you in the middle of the lake as he’s driving by and comes back to graph later when he thinks you can’t see him doing it.
2- The guy that graphs around you as you sit in the middle of the lake, but will never look up and acknowledge your presence as he’s marks a waypoint where you are sitting.
Both of y’all aren’t sneaky btw!

Another scenario that happens with these situations is you can graph them all you want and see them as well but if they don’t want to bite it ain’t happening.

Just seems like you made a post to bitch about nothing

I graph quite a bit. I mark way points and it sure helps me when I am fishing a tournament. Cuts down on a lot of time.

I tried to graph a spot once, all it did was stir up a bunch of mud.

I just idle around, pretending to be graphing, so that others might think that I might actually know what I’m doing. But make no mistake about it, I don’t.  the only thing I ever find while graphing is gaspergou and catfish. Edit: I’m thinking that if I add a mega360, maybe I’ll finally be able to find the fish??? Thoughts from the gallery…

Just seems like you made a post to bitch about nothing It was pretty comical honestly. I mean we weren’t on the Tennessee River. I graph too but this was excessive, sorry if my post hit close to home and offended you.
