Yep.............. in a nutshell, and what's been workin' for me for over half a century (and we had lottsa bigger fish back then).

My father liked 6 pound test in Southern Ontario.

I only go heavy when absolutely necessary in fresh water shore line fishing - to avoid cut offs and in HEAVY weeds.

Sure - you'll lose more lures on snags - but any pastime - be it angling or golf, or whatever costs money.
