I attended one of Crazy Albertos seminars. He caught his IGFA record (46 lbs.) on 8 lb. test while trying to catch weakfish in the Shinnecock Canal. Now his experience entered into his ability to catch the fish, but luck also played into it because he wasn't targeting large bass and a canal lock remained closed that allowed him to get to land the fish. The lock opened a short time thereafter.

What was your experience? Luck, experience or both?
