My goal this year is to continue my 48 year streak of not catching a Double Digit bass. I sure hope I can keep my streak going. Got scared 3 springs ago and caught a 9.83.

That's right, reverse your goal. I've tried everything in the book including that one. All I can tell ya is, keep plugging, learn everything you can from every good fisherman you meet, and fish where they live in good numbers. You'll catch one eventually if you will persevere.

This entire year cast in the opposite direction you were going to aim for.

Good luck keeping your streak going. I know the feeling. I've got a longer streak going than that. Moved to TX recently so I hope the streak ends soon. Headed to Amistad this weekend for a week long challenge.

I share that same goal. Maybe we can start a support group.

We need to pick one TFF'er that has not got a DD and focus our positive energy towards him or her until they get one, then choose another. We will keep this going until everyone gets one.

Very solid advice from Jersey Dan. I will be using this strategy this year for fishing as well as in my financial choices which have left me a broken man.

Headed to Amistad this weekend for a week long challenge. Mexican license and Zorro should end that streak! Already in the arsenal. Any other suggestions? Looks like someone else has already received the mojo for now. Maybe I can get the next shot at it.

I went into last year without ever catching a DD and decided to make it my goal. Very first fish of the year in January. Then a few months later caught another. Now I live down on Amistad and plan on catching a few more.

Foul Foul. You get a 3 pound penalty for living down there. You now need a 13 to qualify.

Like others have said before... Boats don't catch fish.
