    Have you guys ever fished an electric only fishing tournament? This was my first one and it was pretty sweet! We ended up having a pretty decent day, push poled into some tight spots and caught some fish. Lookin forward to the next one!

      Nope, big fan of the Tohatsu. Has given me 0 issues and the thing is a beast!
      This may blow your mind - but Tohatsu actually makes Mercury's outboards under 30hp. They have slightly different casing/design but the internals (I believe) are nearly identical.

    Well damn --- thinkin' those 1st couple to start (of the season) were flukes --- just gettin' warmed-up it seems. WTG!!! Pretty cool too. Now thinkin', inside the box ---if they're hittin' hard and pullin' da bait off (not pinned)... why not shorten up a lil on length? Aggressive to take it off the bed ??? Follow me? Honestly Matt --- I'm not bein' smart ... i'm asking. But that may not be what is happening at all. Reasoning: I go back to the 50 State Tour ... clear(er) waters, they would move the "invader" off the bed -- sometimes more aggressive. Be Safe

      And why’s that , we typically fish lakes that are electric only . You may think it’s stupid but we’re averaging over 50boats per tourn and around 200 members .

    • @SBFishing
      @SBFishing  Před 2 lety +3

      Definitely not dumb, it’s just different. It’s a really good idea IMO not only for the fact that it opens up accessibility to a bunch of people who don’t have a full sized bass boat, but also allows you to fish tournaments in waters that big tournaments will never go due to electric restrictions. I think there’s nothing but positives from an electric only series, and if you don’t like it, you don’t have to fish it 🤷🏻‍♂️ pretty sick that they get 50+ boats turn up though.
