I think the rule still applies 10% of the fisherman catch 90% of the fish...Resources or not, you still have the learn and be efficient using FFS, the fish don't just jump in the boat. I have the Lowrance AT on my boat and have been using it for 3 years or so. I will admit, it is a great tool and another added advantage to helping locate fish not just catch fish. I like to fish for striper and troll for crappie so I use the FFS to locate fish and eliminate "dead" water, that's it for me. I don't have the sore neck syndrome.
