I don't get to fish as much as I would like for ski. Last couple years have about 100 hours total, which is about twice my normal total. This year I'm hoping for about 150-200 hours total. |

| Do you believe it is more the specific bait that is thrown, or the type of bait that is thrown that is landing all these giants? For example if I only throw bucktails I will catch fish on them, or I happened to change to a certain bucktail and that is why I caught that big one? Are you on big fish that bite, or did the big fish only want that lure? I like this thread. Just curious on your thoughts. |
