Stop fighting the technology, Nellie. You need to up your game and get one, because getting me to fish without is not gonna happen. This technology is here to stay.
If you get livescope however, you might has well get spot lock as well, because your eyes will switch from staring at buoy/or maps screen to livescope screen.
Considering every time we are on the lake the same day fishing I catch a 2-3 man limit in half the time it takes you to catch a limit I will stick with my old ways of regular sonar/GPS/ and orange bouys for right now.
The day you catch your limit in half the time it takes me I will convert but until then it ain't happening.
Honestly it is pretty cool but I think it causes most people to stare at a screen trying to get fish to bite that are not active or not crappie. I like the thrill of trying to figure out the depth and presentation, not into watching a screen and trying to put a jig directly in front of a fishes mouth. I was never into video games and not going to start now.
My cousin has Livescope also and he tells me how it's cool but he wastes a lot of time watching fish that are not biting, he thinks he caught them a lot better without it because he went from spot to spot and caught active fish instead of wasting time now because he sees fish on a tree that will not bite.
Just giving you a hard time as usual, do what works best for you.
