Bass fishing tips: LiveScope (forward-facing sonar) used to feel like easy mode—find fish, drop the “right” bait, get bit. Now? You can watch bass track, stall, and fade off without ever committing. In this episode, Pake South lays out the new rules for getting bites when fish are educated, pressured, and seeing the same handful of presentations every day.

We start with a practical jerkbait-on-FFS breakdown (how to actually convert followers), then zoom out to the bigger advantage: treating LiveScope like real fishing again—rotating lure categories based on what the fish are doing on the screen. The goal is simple: stop guessing, stop forcing yesterday’s “meta,” and build a scope arsenal that catches the fish you’ve been writing off as uncatchable.

In this episode:

• Why LiveScope feels harder now (and what actually changed)

• Converting followers into biters: triggers, timing, and commitment cues

• The “bait rotation” approach: when each lure category wins on FFS

• How to adjust when fish get spooky, slow, or act “weird” on screen

• Old-school baits that still shine with forward-facing sonar
