I do that a lot as well, I'll plan how and where I will catch them on a map and spend way too much time trying to force it. Learning when to pivot and move to something else whether it's a different technique in a spot with a lot of life around it or a different area with a confidence technique. All that comes with time and experience, I've gotten a lot better at noticing when I'm forcing something and making a change. Like Caleb said make sure your having a good time on the water, that helps keep a clear mindset and pivot faster. If you find yourself getting frustrated take a minute, eat a snack and go back to the map. You can't win them all but you can enjoy and learn from them all.

I'll have to try the nail wait, I'll cut the stands about the same and make one side a little longer than the other. It helps it walk a little better when I'm moving it real slow.

😂 no joke! They were smashing it that day.

Can't beat a frog bite with screaming braid in the grass or pads.

I like them both. Maybe the heart on the front and this on the back.

I'm still not 100% clear on this. I just posted my biggest five for the week in the thread. Fish being the same singular and plural makes it confusing.

I was under the impression it was the 5 best. But after re reading the rules it's not completely clear. I would post in the main chat for verification

I found them today! Was hoping for one more over 19 this morning but once the sun came over the tree line I couldnt figure out what they wanted.
