Fancy poles, fancy boats, can still yield fewer results

I am amazed sometimes when I am on the water how many 200 hp bass boats lurk around every cove, point or shoal. Even with all the incredible electronic gadgets and equipment they still catch about the same or less as I do on the bank or in a simple boat.

What makes them think that looking like there favorite fishing celebrity is gonna make them yield better results? I have to admit that it looks cool but the cool factor disappears when you take a peak in there live well and or cooler.

Skill should outweigh investment. Don't think that the fancy sonar and gps is gonna set you right down on top of the fish. It all takes time, research and a little luck.

Fishing is not a computer game in reality it is a battle with nature not a battle with the who has the bigger boat. Simple gear and a lot of experience can put more fish in the boat than any huge bank account.
