Choice Of 2 Days

Featured Replies

If you went fishing for several hours in an outing, would you rather catch a bunch of small fish and no big ones? Or just a few in about 6 hours but they are all over 8#?

Just a few over 8 pounders.

Heck, I would be happy catching a single 8 lb fish in a 6 hour outing right now. If I caught several then it would be the best day of fishing ever for me.

If I'm feeling impatient I would take some dinks for a good day. Otherwise one big lunker would do it. ;-)

As much as I love catching numbers, and love days of catcing a bunch of smaller fish, I would have to go with the "8#" option. My PB is just shy of 6# and caught it while by myself.. No one around to take a good photo, so the picture does it no justice. 6-7 pound fish are few and far between in the ponds I fish.. As far as I know. No telling when Ill be able to top my current PB. Id love the "8#" option, so I could update my PB, and hopefully get a good photo op. :respect-059:

An 8 lber ............why so low expectations ?

This actually happened to me on the last trip! We were in the upper spot where we knew the bigger fish were and got a few bites here and there over about 2 hours. Then we decided to go to the lower spot where I proceeded to pull out more then 5 dinks in less then half an hour

Give me a bunch of small ones. If I caught an eight pounder it would have the same effect as my having relations with a hot sixteen year old; my enjoyment would be limited by the heart attack.

Heck!  I'm greedy!  I don't like the choice, one or the other.  I'll take just 3 over 8 (my pb is 7) and the bunch of dinks in between.  Go for the gusto!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eyebrows:

 

if I had to make a choice, I'd take the "few" over 8.  There's times when I go out for 6 hours and catch only a "few" dinks.

I'll be the odd man out.. I would take quantity over quality right now, next yr I'll take quality over quantity. Im just learning how to fish :0

Catching one 8lber in a day would be a great day.....catching two would be epic!!!  I will take the 8lbers.

How many fish are in a bunch?

I'll take a 8#,I know what a 6# feels like.Two more # would be hot.lol

Quality over quantity as long as it was five, so I could say I caught a good limit..... 5 8s.....40lb I will take that limit everyday

Just caught 27 fish from 5pm-8pm biggest was a 4lb smallie all the rest were 2-3lb largemouth. It was on fire and the bite was stupid easy. I loved that but what I loved more was catching 23 smallies the next day biggest 5 went 25lb+.  Id rather have a day of catching the smallies we did than a bunch of big largemouth, sure theyre big but they just dont have the same fight as a smallmouth.
