Every fight looks mighty when you're using 2 lb. test and a rod that a breeze could bend.

Or if it’s a 38” northern pike

And while I myself am disappointed when those days happen, I've watched MLF BPT events where pros get skunked for the day - and those guys are fishing for a paycheck.

It was eye opening when the MLF kicked off. Sometimes multiple guys skunked while the leader caught 80# that day. Makes a person feel better about themselves knowing that even the best sticks out there have terrible days, when there's a hot bite going on. Sometimes it just ain't your day.
