Do you have patience to ignore the smaller fish easier to catch seasonal patterns? Do you have the stubbornness to ignore your fishing partner catching fish after fish on a wacky worm/ drop shot/nail weighted senko/square bill as you heave and retrieve for hours without a bite while he makes fun of you getting excited about seeing a follower?
If yes, you have the commitment necessary.
I would rather fish for 1 big bite than 20 small fish . My partner and I do it regularly , he will throw something to just get bit and I will throw something to catch larger fish . Case in point , 2 trips ago he caught 10 fish throwing a carolina rig and I only caught 2 throwing a jig but one of them was a 9 lb 3oz beast . Big fish come when you least expect it. Was fishing in June t rigged dingers caught a bunch up to 3 1/2 changed to a trick worm watermelon dipped tail 1 st cast 10 :54 go figure. No I ain’t fishing all day for 1 bite it would be to boring for me. Plus don’t like being out fished by my buddy.
I got all day I’m retired
