Fish for the pure enjoyment of it. I catch more fish when I am just out having fun rather than getting flustered.

Bama, I think it's to see if we can get it out without losing our lure. It's mostly spinnerbaits the trees eat.

not 100% true, they just don't live in dry trees. in my opinion confidence is the most valuable thing anyone can take with them when they go fishing. if you have no confidence in what you are doing you are wasting your time.

Watch where you step, especially if you fishing from shore.

The fish will wait for the three seconds you are not paying attention to hit a topwater plug.

Just because you've read that something isn't suppose to work in a situation, doesn't mean it absolutly won't work in the situation you have at hand.

The most important thing to remember is you can't catch them from your couch. I tell myself that every time I feel like I'm probably gonna get skunked again and need motivating.

ROFL...I remember playing some bass fishing game for Sega. If any of you remember that game, it was so irritating when you would accidentally catch a big catfish while trying to tempt a big hawg bass.

Hmmmm......I can't quite place the name, but was it the one where you would earn points per day of tournament play? and you could use the cash to upgrade your lures and motor? I remember that game, if so!
I placed 1st in all the tournaments, then it unlocked a channel into a previously unfishable lake, where a HUGE bass lurked! Can't remember the size, but it was so big it had like dionoasaur plating on it. I landed him first time there, and sold it to the smithsonian where it lived out it's life in a tank.
Never even found it again, let alone caught it.

Sega gave up on their consoles but is still making games. They make Sega Bass Fishing Duel for the PS2 and possibly other systems. Absolutely awesome bass fishing game. I've had a blast playing it and have even created a list of my favorite lake areas to fish

Doesn't sound familiar. I know what you mean by today's standards. Always been a fan of the Tomb Raider series for PS1 & 2. Realized a while back that I no loner had the early games like 1-3, so I picked then up on ebay. Those groundbreaking graphics that I was so thrilled over? They suck
