Since we bought the river house, I fish a lot. I mean a lot - pretty much every day in the weekend. Sometimes its 15 minutes on the dock, but more often it is about 2 hours in the morning from the kayak/
I have come to formulate a theory - the rule of 50.
For every 50 smaller fish, you will catch a big fish. For every 50 big fish, you catch a very large fish.
Does it work? Well, I have been catching a dozen or more small fish each outing. It seems every four outings I get something larger.
Case in point, last weekend I finally hooked into some decent smallmouth. The one on the right is 10 inches and about 2/3 or a pound. The one on the left is 14 inches and about 2 pounds.
I figure I have a few more weekends before I see another 2+ pound fish...
