watched a little of the BASS tourny yesterday and it appeared to me that Welcher was using FFS to locate spawning females off the bank in 2-4ft of water using a swim/glide bait to catch them....looked like everybody else was fishing cover along the bank and catching smaller fish......

A 7 and a 4 first thing. 105 for the tournament. It’s over. Only questions now are margin of victory and total weight
Second is about 44 pounds back. Ridiculous at this level that one guy could dominate like that.

I saw Welcher mainly flipping a creature bait? Maybe I only caught the highlights where he used sponsor appropriate baits? Bronco bug

Sounds sorta unbelievable that the margin of victory will be ~40lbs in an Elite tournament... Total domination... Dan

The bass were bedding on cattails... Someone in the Top 10 admitted it during his on stage interview, and said if the others say they're not, they're lying... Dan

Dan Martin won the open there last year using ffs on bed fish. Set the 3 day record.

Every other boat is equipped with FFS also. Butt whipping of the highest order.

I live and fish about two hours south of there on the Neuse River. I use livescope the same way they are. Used to use 360 the same way by isolating the sweep area.
Stress less, relax more. Go fishing.
