On Monday 24th Feb, I went fishing on Lake Travis with the goal of catching 2 keeper LMB for supper. After 4 hours, I had 2 bites and 2 keepers each about 1 1/2 pounds. That was a good day of fishing for me.
This is a great thread. I find the wide range of opinions about this to be very interesting. Maybe that's part of what makes fishing so great.

Catching fish is almost always a good day. Spending quality time with a buddy or your kids and not catching anything...can also be a good day. I personally like to graph...when I feel i've put the "pieces" together on structure or cover that i've found...that in itself can be very rewarding and make a good day.

For me, 10 fish in a day, any size any species over 1 lb ea. This is sort of my gauge. If I catch 10 or more I think I have had a pretty decent day. I only fish for bass, so that would be 10 bass in my case.

If I fish all day long and nothing on my boat or trailer breaks.  Yep, that's a good day!

I would say a day at lake and not at work. Also like everyone else said and nothing breaks.

I want to be idling across the water before sunrise and watch the sun come up at my first spot. If I accomplish that, I had a good day.
GOD is good!

A couple friends, one or two cold beers and no worries.

Any day on the water is a great day if I don't tear up or break something

I think there are 2 different questions being answered here - a good day of fishing and a good day of catching. Any day I can safely fish most spots where I want to fish and not have any big catastrophes is a good day of fishing. Sunshine and a fishing buddy make it even better. A good day of catching is 20 LMB with at least one over 4' for me and some for my partner too.

There was a 15.xx new lake record caught where I was but my Yamaha wasn't spraying water out so I didn't get to fish.  Got her dropped off at the dealer to get the 100 hour service done so I can get out there soon!
