If catching big fish is luck so is catching a limit. I mean you can run into a school feeding at any given time right? LOL! What about big limits like numbers the same day over 10? just more luck? There is some luck to ALL fishing. The luck of being at the right place,right time (at first). The luck of the fish opening there mouth to eat. The luck of picking the right bait out of 100 to use and on and on.... We do however put our self in the right place to get lucky, after we got lucky and found the right spots anyway LOL! But that goes for limit fishing too don't you think? The guys that don't like going for one big fish just don't feel they can do it. If it's 1 fish , 3 fish or 7 fish limit it is equal for all right? So what's the problem you feel better with a limit that got you nothing anyway? LOL!

How many times does the top guys in a tourney get there because of a big fish?
It's the same old tourneys just without all the little fish that hit everything LOL!! I bet if ALL tourneys changed over to one big fish the same old guys would be taking your money LOL!!
Everyone just feels better catching little fish that will hit anything. That's why they start tourneys at Lake Mc Clure because you can all catch fish there so everyone is happy LOL!! Nothing like bringing in a limit that weighs 5 lbs LOL!

Thank you God for all the luck.

Hey Jake, Rob, Nico, All of you. You can't fish your just lucky LOL!
All in fun boys.
