I always wondered. I posted a picture of a fish my buddy Jeremy caught

early

this morning. This fish had some serious hook wounds that were healing

up.

Good size fish and very distinctive lower lip from all the times it was
hooked...... I caught this fish yesterday morning on the same lure, a

Blue

Saphire Ozmo dipped halfway in green watermelon garlic, This fish hardly
fought either time tending to just want to go deep after being hooked,
didn't flop one time while it was in the boat either. On another lake

there

is a fish with distinct patterns that hangs out in the same spot all the
time, This fish we have named "Rufus" it has been caught and released at
least 6 times that we know of and again like the big fish, no jump and

kinda

comes to the boat like a wet sock. Anyone else experience this? Just
curious. There was also a fish that I had caught about two weeks ago, gut
hooked with a 2/0 red gammy, That fish has been caught two more times

since

then, just as hungry now as it was then.





Now that is a sustained, consistent test bed to work from. Being
totally serious, is it 2 days exactly, or roughly. It would be
fascinating to think that this fishes memory of the stressful event only
lasts a couple days. Also , are you catching him on the same lure, or
on the first day do you catch him on a jig, and 2 days later, he won't
touch the jig, or he does, but it has to be a different color.

Thanks for any further info you can throw us.
