Control what we can control is part of fishing success!

I don't want to sound negative, but I strongly disagree with this statement.
I know many people (we'll use my brother as an example) who aren't great fishers but at times can storm you in fish caught. Skill is nothing! Here's a cool story, Me, my Brother, and MichaelAngelo were fishing together one day and at first my brother wasn't going to come but he decided to tag along just for some fun for the first hour and a half my Brother completely stormed Me and Michael reeling in a fish every 15 minutes when me and Michael hadn't caught anything yet. As the day progressed I caught a couple and Michael got some follows but nothing compared to my Brother. This is how I see our skill levels in order from least to best. My Brother-----Me----Michael. As you can see Michael is the highest skill level by a decent amount but he caught 0 fish that day, me being in the middle caught a couple of fish that day, and my Brother being the lowest caught about 6 fish that day. Skill can add some factors but does not mean much when it comes to fishing.

Just my two cents ,
