[QUOTE="5575, post: 486889, member: 410"] I used to enjoy the local tournaments, looked forward to taking vacation for them and fishing with friends. And if you could catch one or two kickers a day along with your 20 inchers you'd usually cash a check and might even have a chance to win! But like Traxion said now you have the ability to pick and choose the exact fish you are going to target and it better be 26" plus and you better have 5 of those a day. And those fish in the summer on the big lakes have been figured out suspended in the column. Heck many scopers don't even pay attention to the bottom at all. Funny you bring up the hope scope, I was asked if that's how I caught my fish last year ha ha ha. I have a 12" FFS setup and to tell you the truth I haven't had it in my boat the last couple years. I enjoy the unknown aspect of fishing8 still. But I'm not going to lie I couldn't go without it out on the ice! Each to their own, it's a tool that's out there for all to learn and use for tournaments so I don't blame those that have gotten proficient at it and are taking all the donors money. Just won't be donating mine any more, rather just fill the boat up with friends and family and fish for fun these days...guess I'm getting old! Ha ha ha [/QUOTE]
