A "growth mindset" means focusing on being 1% better than I was yesterday. It's about having the grit to push through those tough tournament days when nothing seems to work - because that's where real growth happens. It's not about beating someone else - it's about enduring the grind, embracing the struggle, and knowing that every challenge makes you stronger. When you shift from trying to win to trying to grow, the pressure transforms into excitement for what you'll learn next. Every tough day fishing becomes a chance to level up, and your ability to endure becomes your superpower.

BLat, thank you for the FFS insight. The amount fish that come up with electroshock makes me think why can’t I catch all those. Ha

With my boys my first boy I took him with me and I went fishing. He does not fish with me anymore. My second boy I took him fishing and focused on what he wanted to do. I had to change my mindset. I was not going fishing I was taking my boy fishing and making memories. Focus on their day is what I learned.

Brooks is great side kick and some of those faces had me laughing. I remember those days with my boys. Those days go fast.

I love me a jig.

I wanted to see your sheet skills, do you want to share your template? :-) 😆

That looks like the weather I would fish in. Nice one!

I created a template; you can download it and modify it as you like. Tim can you send me a copy of your XLS? - https://kindlewoodcamping-my.sharepoint.com/:x:/g/personal/brian_kindlewoodoutdoors_com/EVZ2sPBH50xEhpZEnXuNqFoBgGPB9zdZeApYodVzPLryLQ?e=ZUuG2n

Here is another example of spreadsheets with regard to fishing - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87ZdGE0EsFI&t=29s
