No, because I know of and fish several places that will do that. I will not marry any one place when it comes to fishing. I know those fish are there at one point or another but there's no guarentee they'll be there when I am. But I do focus on spots that produce large.

Yeah, after rethinking this... I'd get too bored at the same spot for 10 years. You can bet your @$$ I'd be there when the time was right though.

Hypotheticly saying, fishing this spot will give up a 50 sooner or later, maybe tomorrow, maybe 10 yrs from now. Would you fish it every night?

And just because its the new moon in June doesnt mean the 50+ will be there, what if you miss it on one of the other 30 nights a month?

PS>The hypothetical spot holds other bass as well

Well, I guess if this is a fantasy land where I could fish it everynight, and it holds allot of big fish, and it wasn't in downtown Bridgeport, etc,

Sure, why not? If I was consisitantly catching large, why not? Also It needs to be a gaurentee I'll catch a 50, not just that ones swimming around (I'm sure that's happened to me already).

Now would I trade years of skunks for 1 50? No way.

ITS, whats the difference? Your still fishing for large, just hedging which spot has the best chance of giving one up

Well part of it has to do with one of your previous threads "those who get 30 lb plus fish yearly" or to that effect. Having an idea where these fish are at a particular time and based on when I'm fishing what are the conditions and factors (many of them covered in that thread)that will make one spot more favorable than another.
