Ive been a believer in the intangibles when it comes to fishing for awhile now.
There is a certain x-factor that some people have that others do not. Its something that goes beyond skill and knowledge. Its that thing that if there are 5 guys in a line using the same bait the same way, the person with the most x-factor outfishes the rest.
I thought after last year, I had it, but apparantley, this year, I do not. It must come and go, ebb and flow like the tide. Granted I am only behind two keepers on last years talley, overall count I am probably a few dozen back.
Call it what you will, x-factor, mojo, @#$ luck, I dunno...
