Well said Doug:

Sometimes its better to go to the a persons file and ask a question - rather than read all the responses -

Some of the group has been around for years & years and they learned the hard way - trial & error
The best honest way to learn is record everything you can think of while on the water - put it on paper
next time out your record more data -
The more you fish, fish, fish the more you learn - short cuts are when someone else tells you -
NO harm met -- the more you fish an area the more you learn about it - than questions & answers make sense
