IMO, for me anyway, too many electronics just takes away from the "fun/suspense of the hunt"....and I love electronics. I use a locater and mini-cam, but after I'm done scouting it out, I just use the locater. I usually fish the lakes I know really well, and the structures and spots that support what I'm after. Too much makes it like, pardon the pun, shooting fish in a barrel. I like a little suspense, I don't want to know what's in every xmas present before I open 'em. There's a lot more to it to me than just yanking out as many fish as you can with a 100% success rate. Using your wits and knowledge of the area just makes the catch all that much sweeter.Kinda like that first girlfriend, the chase is half the fun, then comes the reward. Guess that's middle of the road old school/new tech, that works for me. But whatever works for anyone, go for it. You're out there to enjoy it however you do it.
I think that I will still use the flasher - its gotten to the point that I talk to it more than my fishing partner!!

Just an easier way to catch them. Gotta do what makes you happy.
Should I feel guilty getting one of the Roboview underwater drones? Some may have seen it at the MN ice fishing shows. I don't have it yet, they sold out at the Blaine show, and I should get it in a month.
Never feel guilty buy whatever you want and and of course is legal and to hell with people who say different. People have to mind their own damn business on how OTHER people choose to enjoy the outdoors. Some of the biggest enemies the outdoor community has are those who think that they (Liberals) should dictate what others should buy and use. MIND YOUR OWN DAMN BUSINESS.
How does tech lead into politics? Stop with this silliness. If you enjoy yourself, you are doing it right.
Politics are a mind set an ideology. If you have read or watched anything on Liberals you will see that they decide what they like and what is right for them................wh ich is fine............. but then they find it necessary to tell you that what they decide is right for them is right for you too. Politics effect every part of you your life...............if you don't see that your not paying attention.
Someone posted liberal ideaology about society. I laugh when a single person thinks they can sum up the entirety of a society in a couple words.
For me a flasher is too much tech. Rather not be staring at a screen all day. I have a graph that requires less attention,IMO. It least it gets less from me. Glance at screen, glance at the scenery, at your buds to see if they are getting hits, back at screen etc.
