I think they were trying to get Go Pros in many of the boats but I imagine there's a limit to how many they have? I had to get up at 2:45am on the final practice morning so my memories of parts of the day, particularly morning, are... fuzzy... at best. I almost seem to recall they were trying to get at least one Go Pro in almost every boat? Not sure I can trust what I heard but there was quite a bit going on about that topic, including the little helicopter robot thingies.
We had one follow us out on Wednesday since I was with Aaron Martens and he was boat 1. For a second, I thought the thing was coming in for a strafing run... it missed!

But it seemed like it came in a little close and fast at one point. Buzzzzzz... Maybe the weather had something to do with that considering at least one of them (multi-thousands of dollars if I remember right?) took a swan dive into Lake Guntersville were it will become cover for a bass or some baitfish.
There were lots of pundits who predicted the wrong most likely winners and top placers in this event for sure! Conditioned changed even more than many of the top anglers seemed to expect so not everyone adjusted as well. I could see that questioning/confusion and I was only at the lake on the one practice day before the most major changes occurred.
