Bill, luck is a BIG factor when someone doesn't know what they're doing. That doesn't apply to you and Kevin. Luck was not a factor in determining the best way to go after those fish-cranking. Luck wasn't a factor in being equipped to fish that way or switch to another had it been necessary. Luck didn't determine how deep to fish or where to fish. All those things came from hard work and experience on the water. It's not luck when you're consistently on the leader board. Hope to one day be that "lucky" myself but until then I've got a lot of learning to do.

Thank You. I know both Kevin and myself appreciate the kind and encouraging words. I'd like to think that we were good enough to figure them out.

But Really, It Was Luck !!!!. [emoji12]

No, it wasn't luck. It was PURE LUCK!!! [emoji57]

In all honesty, it was an answered prayer. I prayed for 3 more fish at 11:30, and The Good Lord gave us 8 more by 12:30. Glad he did cause the TM got weak right after that.

We also had 4 at 11:30 but couldn't close the deal.

Our bite died off about 11:30, wish it had stayed on for another hr.
