Go to Google Earth Pro. Find the date the lake was the lowest and the date is was at full pool. Zoom in on the [censored] that is out of the water, make waypoints , load on your graph. That's all he does.

Yep, he’s just looking at stuff on Google earth not passing on any personal experiences.

I watched one of the lake break downs on a lake I am familiar with and I didn't see much info I thought was valuable. I also watched a break down of a lake I am not familiar with and used some of the tips and had a rough day. If you are a bank beater, you can certainly find places, but marking a downed tree from 2013 and going back to it in 2025 is being hopeful at best. The willow brushpiles I may or may not set out are mostl gone in less than 1 year.

I like it. I think he does a good job on his videos and he is usually right about predicting good areas.

I just watched one of his videos, what a waste of time. Basically fish every obvious place that everyone else does, and their are thousands of them.

Put the trolling motor down and go scoping. Anything else is a waste of time!

Are his videos or waypoints cards helpful to the hardcore tournament anglers… of course not. He’s basically just showing guys (who otherwise don’t know how, or have the time to do it themselves) how to research lakes and find stereotypical fishing spots that we all look for. Same exact thing Edwin Evers does every month and yet I don’t hear anybody throwing Edwin under the bus for it. He’s capitalizing on an opportunity to share knowledge, grow the sport, and make a little money on the side. I know Tyler personally. He’s a stand up guy, and I wish the best for him. Anyone who has a problem with what he is doing (or any other content creator for that matter) should do some serious self reflection. If you don’t like it, don’t watch it… It’s really that simple

I was wondering if he was including boat lanes chips in his definition.
