 Absolutely. As a front seater myself, I've had the back seater do better than me simply by dragging a Carolina rig behind the boat. Like, I'm throwing the shoreline, and he's catching a bunch of fish behind me, or he's dragging it out on the deeper part of the water. I've actually fished a tournament where I changed my entire tactics because he was catching more fish than me, and we backed out, went out to deeper water, and both of us started catching a bunch of fish.
