Cool

For those that have their "hot spots", think about what it feels like when YOU are in "th zone". Foe me, it's fishing the east end during the start of the flood tide, an learning how to differentiate between the Sluggo/jig bouncing on the bottom, and the VERY subtle pickup by the bass. It took some time before I realized why I was missing the strikes. Once I corrected for that, I was slaying them. I may not have gotten a keeper every time, but I was regularly pulling fish from that area.
Like virtually everything worth while in life, if you put your time in, you WILL seem like an expert to someone less experienced.
Heck, I've been approached a number of times by fellow fishermen wanting to know what my secret was. My answer: No secret, just keep trying.
