Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Low Budget Live ACTUALLY LIVE Episode 389 With Wes Logan!!
Q: Are you out there scoping? I mean, are you fully committed to the scope deal when you can?
Logan says he has used forward-facing sonar and can interpret it, but he has struggled to commit to spending practice time scanning rather than fishing banks. He recognizes that bank fishing alone no longer produces the same results and says he needs to commit more fully to the technology.
Low Budget Live ACTUALLY LIVE Episode 389 With Wes Logan!!
Q: Talk about this year, man, and did you let that at any point, did that seep in? Were you worried about it in the back of your mind, or is that something you just took each tournament one at a time and let the chips fall where they may?
Logan explains that after starting with a strong finish, he struggled with execution, lost important fish, and faced requalification pressure. A poor event at Champlain left him worried about being cut, but a strong first day at St. Lawrence helped him secure his place. He says the season was a wake-up call to appreciate his career and learn from bad days.
Low Budget Live (Not So Live) Episode 390 DUNKIN BUTTS RIDES AGAIN
Q: What is your World Bass Enterprises, the Champions prediction?
Butts considers shallow-water anglers and competitors who can capitalize on fall baitfish, grass, and forward-facing sonar. Dunkin predicts strong performances from Jacob Wheeler, Trey McKinney, and Patrick Walters.
Low Budget Live (Not So Live) Episode 390 DUNKIN BUTTS RIDES AGAIN
Q: What's the best advice you've ever gotten from old Canterbury Crunch? Life or fishing advice?
Butts recalls Scott Canterbury suggesting that he use a thermal drone to see how many deer were on his property. He also describes their breakdown during a tournament as a lesson in overcoming adversity.
Low Budget Live (Not So Live) Episode 383 With Zack Birge!!
Q: What does he think about the live-streaming shift and the future of coverage in bass fishing?
Birge notes that the ability to stream directly has reduced reliance on traditional TV-style coverage and that many anglers can build strong audiences through their own broadcasts, signaling a major shift in how the sport is consumed.
