Talking with a friend last night about depth finders and weather they have an effect on fish hitting your bait. He said that in a lot of tournaments some are turning off the electronics after they have located a spot to fish, there thinking is the fish can detect the sound that the sonar puts out in the water.
I think this is going to be a yes and no topic, but I am interested in what others think about this, and your reasoning for your decision. Tight Lines.
