What in the past couple decades do you consider a game changer in you success as a fisherman. To me it’s threefold, graphite, braid and fish finders.

The biggest change for me happened when I was still involved in fresh water bass tournament fishing and sensitive graphite rods came out first, followed by braid and it was night and day almost immediately.

When shortly after i made the switch to stripers and getting back into the salt. The ability to feel hits, even subtle takes regardless of wind and current was so important when fishing plastic.

The next big jump for me, was moving into chart plotters with the ability to help locate and the fish structure not evident to the naked eye. Good electronics, sensitive powerful graphite rods and the sensitivity of no stretch braid to me were a game changer.

Fish talk lets go.
