Good Point!

Mac, thanks for the advice (and all the encouragement from everyone else). I've been fishing off and on for a long time (mostly fresh water) but only started fishing for stripers the last couple of years. Catching definitely isn't all I care about. Like I said, I think it's just wanting to do it right. Then if I still get skunked so be it. The other part of it is that I really want to catch something plugging this year. When there's a handful of bait you can throw compared to hundreds? of plugs it's a little daunting. I'm just gonna take all the good advice you guys have given me and keep at it (and enjoying it).

If all you are concerned about is the catching then maybe you should take up something else like golf where your score pits you against yourself. Don't take this as an attack on you because it isn't. Just another way to put it into perspective. Hopefully you continue to love and enjoy fishing.
