Difficulty of fish..

[OldTimer]

Answer depends on so many variables.

For example: Rock Bass for me in some lakes I fish are like M.A’s creek chub in his local creeks – there’s LOTS of ‘em present and they’ll hit most everything presented in their blind purpose competition for food in order to survive……….. hence: real easy to catch………

Maybe………………….

Catch either of these species 8 miles out on Lake Ontario…………… no doubt – real tough sledding……..

Another example – I used to think that catching Muskie was a super tough thing to do – but once I had the opportunity to fish with a knowing friend on the “right water” with the “right gear” at the “right time” , etc… - we caught fish more regularly than most.

However, I would say that in my days - the toughest fish for me to catch (when I knew they were actually present, and I’d actually seen them) was a large RESIDENT river (not lake run) Brown Trout. I did eventually get one – but I became close to a compulsive fishin’ maniac psycho to do it.

Hmmmm………… perhaps I should fish for M.A.’s “disturbed” fish?
