If you're on a lake that has them, sooner or later it just happens. I know guys that suck that have caught several. I also know very skilled guys that haven't caught one. Not saying that skill isn't important, just saying that random chance is involved. Oh good, cause I suck.

I'm eat up with it... I've been to Falcon 5 times, had 4 double digit fish caught out of my boat. The other guys that didn't catch DD caught their personal best. My biggest is 9lb 15oz. I have three others over nine pounds. I've seen several that I'm sure were DD on my line, but I was unable to get them in the boat. I still dream about one particular giant that spit my 6XD out at the side of the boat. Maybe tomorrow I'll catch the big one...

Dang SkeeterJim, that's tough. Seems like every time I read one of these threads somebody who posts about this curse gets their dd within a couple of months so maybe you guys are due- hope y'all all get one soon!

Lots of time on big fish water Barrett. You'll get there.
I don't know if you'll catch multiple ones like me, but you'll get there...

Barrett,
Quit crying about it on the internet. It won't help.
And give up chasing women. That hurts your chances as well.
Settle down with a nice fat woman from Emory or Yantis that will cook and clean for you, and as a big fat woman, she won't have any other dating options when you're gone all the time fishing.

Let me put it this way...it is kind of like looking for a lady to spend the rest of you life with....if you are focused on finding her...you won't. Go fishing and enjoy yourself...use the knowledge you have learned over the years and it will come.

Haven't hit that one yet either Barrett. Too many 8-9's with largest at 9 lb 11 oz. Old Toadsnatcher had my DD in his hands in the boat at Falcon before throwing it back overboard without getting to weigh it or touch it!! Don't know why I still fish with that dude!!!
