2005 I was getting one over 10 about every 3.5 trips.

Last year I averaged one every 12-13 trips. Bad year. I lost focus on big ones, spending a lot of time in tournament mentality land. I'm really just not that good at tournament fishing, it's much harder for me than big fish fishing mentally and results wise.

This year has been great. Maybe 1 in 5? I've caught a few ;) I tabulate all my trips in a spreadsheet at the end of the year. Things come and go. You ride the highs and you slog your way through the lows.
