I expect Numbskull to snap off a newly made lure, listen to him bitch and moan  up on the rocks about snapping that lure off!
When that happens it really makes the trip for me fish or no fish, I really enjoy that and feel unfulfilled if it doesn't happen.  |
Why even try.........

As a preface, I don't get out even 1/5th as much as I'd like to, and I fish plugs 95%+ of the time. I have a great time every time whether I catch or not.
My hope is to catch a cow but my goal is to not get skunked. I select a spot based on whether I think it will have large bass or not, but after that I'm there to catch fish. If that means working a tiny plug through the rut to pick up a rat to avoid the skunk, then that's what I'll do and I'm not shy about saying I'm doing it. For that reason, I rarely get skunked. For that same reason, I rarely get huge fish with my biggest being only 36#.
I never, ever, EVER leave fish. Bluefish, schoolies, whatever...if I'm catching, I'm staying. Not in my blood to leave fish, and never will be. I don't get out enough to have the luxury of saying "I'm tired of catching all these small keepers, let's go look for some bigger fish."

Just like being there out on the water. All else is secondary.

I gotta admit, I'm out looking for large every trip. BUT, I'm still satisfied if I only catch one small fish in a trip and if it was a nice night out with friends or just nice alone time. Now if the wind is blowing and I'm freezing, if I get skunked, I'm kinda pissed.
