A very good description of it, Thanks Tim Cook

Prefishing; the practice of developing preconceived notions about patterns you won't use and fish you won't catch during the tournament.

Lol something like that! The quicker you find out what not do, the quicker you find what to do.

for me it means 99% of the time I should not fish this tournament.

The way it happens for me is something always changes the night of the tournament, i.e. temp, weather, wind.


Thanks,

Yep I agree, my best finishes always came on bodies of water that I'd never seen until the morning of the tournament. All I had in my head was some spots marked on a TOPO map and that 6th sense you get from years on the water.........

Prefishing to me is catching a nice bag just going fishing that day and then I get that pattern stuck in my head and forget to fish the conditions on tournament day.
