Why I am a better ________ angler than you are!

I’m not afraid of losing a bait. Many will not throw into cover because they don’t wanna lose a bait.

And this is why I buy $1.00 spinnerbaits and buzz baits from Walmart. I buy less expensive crank baits on Amazon or Aliexpress too. I just can’t afford to be losing expensive tackle and the plus side, I’ll take more chances with where I cast.   
I don’t think it has made me a better angler, just means I’ve lost more tackle.
