Bassmaster Kayak Series Angler of the Year Rus Snyders is teaming up with Bass University to provide an in-depth look at using forward-facing sonar (FFS), in this case, LiveScope, from a kayak. With a remarkable track record in kayak tournaments, Rus shares valuable insights into the specific baits and setups that have propelled his success using FFS on a kayak. He demonstrates the unique way he mounts his transducer on a kayak, distinct from the setup on a regular boat.

One of his areas of expertise involves effectively fishing in shallow vegetation using FFS, and he details how to leverage this technology to explore and understand a fishing area when navigating with a kayak.
