Team Toyota Weighs in on New FFS Ruling for Bassmaster Elites
The conversation around forward facing live sonar and the technology’s impact on competitive bass fishing has been an omnipresent theme amongst professional anglers, fans, and industry pundits for several years now. You’ve likely heard countless passionate opinions surrounding FFS and, unfortunately, like many differences of opinion in 2025 the dispute around FFS has become highly divisive. The essence of the debate is simple. Most anglers and fans unanimously agree that live sonar is an incredible tool that helps anglers catch more and bigger fish, but should it have a place in the highest levels of bass fishing competition? Check out what some of the anglers from Team Toyota had to add to the conversation here.
And With The Flip Of A Coin
Curious how technology will shape the 2026 Bassmaster Elite Series? Bassmaster just revealed the results of their coin flip show that decided which events will allow forward-facing sonar next season. With a hybrid format blending both tech-enabled and traditional fishing tournaments, anglers will need to prove themselves in more ways than one. Dive in to see which waters will use this new rule and how it could shake up the competition and learn more here.
SPRO Spin John 80 Spybait
Designed by Elite Series angler, John Crews, the Spro Spin John 80 was built to be the ultimate spybait. Unlike any other spybait, the Spro Spin John 80 features a special chin underneath the bait to increase water resistance, as well as, two swivels incorporated into the line tie and the back hook hanger, which causes the bait rock back and forth and generate a heavy body rolling action. The swivels also eliminate leverage and make it harder for fish to throw the hook to dramatically increase your fishing landing ratio. A pair of counter rotating blades produce a subtle flash and pluming vibration, which is key to triggering lethargic fish into biting as well. The Spro Spin John 80 was developed to catch fish in tough conditions, and it also works exceptionally well when the fish are highly pressured or suspended and in a non-aggressive mood. Finished with two Gamakatsu G-Finesse treble hooks that provide unmatched hook penetration even with extremely light line, the Spro Spin John 80 will put fish in the boat when other lures cannot.
