[QUOTE=Mr. Sandman;842376].....................
One thing I noticed from fishing in different places with different people is fishermen from every location have "their" way of doing it and that's it. (even if it is for the same species) They realize that other people are successful doing it other ways and if you ask them about it...the response is something like...I have never tried that, I know it works but I do it this way. That's fine, they are telling you what works for them...but I think as a group, Fishermen tend to be a little narrow minded and take the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" approach instead of "there is always a better way" approach.............



That pretty much sums it all up right there. This is true whether talking tuna, bass, blue, flounder......once you find something that seems to work for you then you get very narrow minded. This is the reason over the years you end up with a basement full of stuff you win at raffles.
