Is it YOU...........or is IT the Spot?

[BassDawg]

interested in sum opinions about this rhetorical,,,,,,,
meaning that there is no right or wrong answer, here.

from my view, i think that it has very little to do with the
angler and more to do with being there when the stripers are there. i mean once we've found
our BIGGS producers, providing that conditions repeat (and they do);
then it's pretty much just about showing up at the right place,
right tide, right moon, with the right offering and yer landing lahhhhge, right?

i do get it that we have to put in the time, learn our spots, and improve upon technique, but how else does one explain the occurrance of fiddies being landed by virtual "rookies", and me ~who knows nothing~ doing pretty good for only a coupla years in this striperin' game? go figure................but imho, i think it's in the SPOT and Sir Saxatilis, rather than in me/you the surfangler.
