Ken I do not fish tournaments. As far as catching 50 pound fish have I ever?? No I have not. Do I want to? Sure who wouldn't but I do not let the desire for a 50 pound fish define me. I enjoy fishing probably more than most people do because my trips are defined by how much I enjoy the journey not the arrival! I certainly hope to catch my trophy some day and I can appreciate the skill involved by people, like yourself, who can accomplish the feat on a regular basis. I do not consider myself a "great" fisherman......just a successful one.
