Have you done a video on the Lowrance AT2 vs the Garmin LVS34? I have heard some advantages in different areas for each of them and was wondering your opinion.
Great video Jonny – love hearing your insights on strategy. For a one-day tournament this is still helpful in knowing what to look for while running another pattern. Then if I stumble into the key area you described, I'll recognize it, drop the trolling motor, and hopefully put some quick fish in the boat. Looking forward to that upcoming video you mentioned on optimizing the use of FFS when working this pattern.
In the old days you could find the bait with your flasher at 30 mph. Most times I’m fishing a lake for a day and I’m going to fish not graph. Interesting video though.
Up here in the North- Wondering if Golden Shiners school up also for Protection
Johnny, thanks I’m well schooled in this pattern by you
so far I can graph for about 25 minutes without fishing lol but you gotta do both, fish the best contours/holes where the fish always are IF you know, and go on the chase
I hope im wrong but I feel like every mlf tournament is going to be like this. Every boat in the same small area with the most small to mid size bass.. Every fish format just doesn't do it for me
Very clearly, and more importantly, realistically explained! I appreciate this video very much!
Great info
.. thanks for the video 
at the 5:20 mark you mention another video but I dont see it linked?
Never gonna have this kind of sonar. Ohio has about eight bass per lake anyway, and with ten thousand tournament fishermen after them so they can win a hundred dollars it’s not pretty.
Thanks for putting in to perspective and reality this pattern of fishing and what is required to finding these honey holes that are forever changing. A key point you made is that finding these spots has no pattern at all on where to start looking on a reservoir…..interesting. I'm looking forward to the followup video you mentioned.
Johnny, would you consider a video on the post-spawn where bass set up and if/how they tend to stay in that area for the duration of the Summer and into the Fall season? For me, I fish tourneys. BUT, my cutoff is the week before. I can't fish my body of water for one week prior to the Sunday tourney. So, if I find a load of fish on Sunday before the tourney will they most likely still be there the next Sunday, one week later. Hope that makes sense and it triggers something for you that you might want to show us. Tks man.
This was excellent. Thank you. One of the best things you do is break down what the pros are doing in an easily digestable and applicable way.
Enjoyed it, Johnny! Any tips or different approaches for SHADLESS reservoirs?
Over 2yrs later and AT2 still amazes me. The behavior we get to witness is like Wild Kingdom.
Great information! Keep it coming!
They were catching 1 pounders
Good content, thank you
thank you!!
Very good content. Thank you
Catching a 1.8lb bass 20X is not impressive. MLF needs to make sure that their minimum weight gets bumped up going forward. A 5 fish limit you will get beat on Conroe on that pattern
Between them they got a gd graveyard
already smh
