Well said Mike...........you put the time in and it will reward you in long run. What i have
learned over the years, helps when arriving at a new lake i have never fished. Look for
similarties this lake has to ones have fished, get a tofo map, use your GPS, pin-point
starting points, watch wind conditions day of arrival and down road few days. Watch
how it effects the lake. Time of year, etc, etc, etc. all of this is in every book you will
read, but until you take it from the book and put into action, record what was good, or
didn't work, etc... You will be watchin the birds, blue sky, watchin bobbers and telling
youself what a fun time your having fishing, how calm your mind is and no stress.
I'm done, off the soap box............
