Super User Catt Posted February 21, 2011 Super User Posted February 21, 2011 Failing to understand what structure is, how to truly identify it, interpret it, and then fish it effectively. Failing to understand what the predominate prey species in your lake and how that species relates to structure with each season...morning, noon, and night. Failing to understand that next after location is timing; just because you don't get bite does not mean the bass aren't there or you tied on the wrong lure. Failing to understand that to consistently catch bass is a process of elimination and duplication. Eliminate patterns and waters that are non-productive and duplicate patterns and waters that are productive. Failing to understand the #1 key to consistently catching bass is between your ears not between the folds of your wallet. Failing to understand it takes a rare breed of fisherman using simple techniques to perfection to consistently catch bass Failing to understand if you eliminate your history you've eliminated your experience Failing to understand anglers often respond to failure and frustration by over-complicating theory and technique. As much as it helps our egos to regard a difficult task as complex, this type of thinking is often the biggest obstacle between you and your fishing success. Failing to understand that if you do what you've always done, you'll get what you always got Quote

Scorcher214 Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 This is the best advice on bass fishing I have ever gotten. Quote
Super User Raul Posted February 21, 2011 Super User Posted February 21, 2011 Failing to understand that "the best" is not always about brand, it 's about type and how you fish it. Failing to understand that the lure is only a tool and that there 's a bunch of ways to skin a cat and not just one. Failing to understand that you have to know your lures. Quote

Super User senile1 Posted February 22, 2011 Super User Posted February 22, 2011 If some user didn't already have the user name Captain Obvious I would suggest it to you. ;D Failing to understand that one should generally write and speak at a level that communicates not only to those with knowledge, but also to those with the least understanding in his or her audience. Sorry, I just had to throw that in there. Quote

Super User Fishing Rhino Posted February 23, 2011 Super User Posted February 23, 2011 Regarding knowledge and wisdom, I heard it put a different way, don't know who said it, and this may be a crude paraphrase, but it goes like this. Knowledge is the gathering of information. Wisdom is the appropriate use of knowledge. Quote

VABassin'14 Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Or is it just piling up asinine one-liners? HAHAHAHAH. I was thinking it but never would've said it. But these really are things everyone needs to think about when on the lake. Quote
