Flogger?

They are using them on MLF live this morning, anyone used one ever in TX during spawn or is this a northern thing?

and man that can't be good for your back.

what is a flogger?

IMO - Our water clarity is a little different than up north, and we primarily fish for largemouth spawning rather than smallies. Depth of the beds is different.

I had to search for it, but once I saw a picture I realized what it was. Never heard it called that...

I’ve seen them used several times up north. Don’t remember ever seeing anyone use one down south.

They have a ton of water to fish and Jones jr and Lucas are fishing on top of each other. Wtf?

Never heard of it or seen it until this thread, but I found this. Interesting.

Flogger? I hardly know her!

Use them out West a lot as well.

He had these on his show one time and I've never laughed so hard. They were using it as a show prop and talking through it like a cheer leader.

It reminds me of this:

What do you use for Flog protection?

Are floggers straight fire or straight trash?

man the secret is out

Some could say that AJ Jr comes by it legit. The apple don't fall far...

The next Gen bass boats will have them built into the deck.

Yeah, I just started watching today, kind of a trippy device, seems to working for them as the sight fish for deep water spawning bass....maybe it would work for parts of Texoma??
It also nice seeing a low-tech device for fishing in what has been becoming a big tech industry........

Does that come in bifocals?

all that high tech electronics and they use this.

right

Little bit of overkill for a bass tournament. MiG-23 Flogger

I bet those not using one, will get one... the top 10 results speak for itself...

Nah, we'll just go straight Glass Bottom Bass Boats!

I thought this was an activity that involved a dolphin. I’m old maybe I misremembered.

Right?!?

Would that work on Squaw Creek?

You’d have 20 boats with 20 guys looking down with 20 lures on on bed at squaw 😂

Jeez, with all of the high dollar electronics on boats nowadays, they have to resort to a plastic viewing cone????

I need a 7’ tall version. I’m not laying on the deck

I tried one like 10-15 years ago on kurth lake where they spawned in 6-8ft routinely. Water was clear but not clear enough. Platform worked better...

Clear water contraption.

50 shades of bass fishin?

You'd never need one in Texas. That said, I'm sure we'll see some next year.

Funny how they have 12-15k in electronics on board, but resort to looking thru a cone to see if there are fish down there....lol

Prediction—you will see them at a lake near you by this weekend, and more and more in the coming months.

I've had one for over a decade but you're right, very few lakes it's even worth it on. Amistad type lakes are what you need plus small mouth refuse to leave the bed so that helps. Most times it doesn't help with largies cause they are already gone when you can get close enough to use the flogger

Well—how many of you saw people with floggers on a lake this weekend?

Just to clarify. I was there 5 mins before Lucas ever got there.
