Pretty sure Humminbird is getting ready to release a new version of Mega Live. They have been offering $500 off original version for a couple of months.

What % of small time trail and touny guys use FFS?
Im doing this for the first time next year - will i be the only fool without FFS? Yes you need the following: 21’ boat with twin poles, 250hp and more screens than Space Center Houston. Jacked up 3/4 ton crew cab diesel complete with camper shell- any less of a truck will just get dragged into the water. Don’t forget your jersey! Don’t forget the $900 Simms rain suit, matching pfd, 4ft decal on the back window of the truck, and costa sunglasses. $900?? The one I bought was $1300!!

... Don’t do it- youll just see all the fish you can’t catch! Ya ain't gotta worry about me joining the clique... When I get back to the ramp at weigh in time and everyone has a limit and I'm a few fish short I've got a pretty good idea how many I didn't catch... Plus I'd rather take the fund and invest in a 300R... I may not have a limit, but damn I'll look good getting there... Dan

And you have to wrap everything, plus you need all the go pro cameras for your you tube stuff. Gotta promote that pop up guide business and get those clicks.

Think I’ll use my $700 BPS100 setup and save the $600 for a good terry cloth towel.

If you're fishing 1 day events and you're worried about it, don't be. You don't need it to go catch 5 fish. Some of the previous tournament results in my area suggest that if you can even catch a limit of fish you're going to be in the top 5. I don't think Livescope is going to assist with that. Now for catching big fish, I'm sure it could help.
