I agree Warren. Confidence and focus. I lack the focus and that is the main
reason why I am
a lousy tourney angler. I win in 10 years and 30+ events. If I don't have a
fish by noon I am toast. I like your Powerball analogy. I have NO idea how I
would react to that. Nor will I
ever. ;-( Joe Z

No doubt John.

You guys gotta understand that for Mike winning this tournament was the
equivalent of hitting the Power Ball Lottery.

No, I don't scream when I catch a winning bass. I think that would spook
any other bass for one thing. I'm partial to the fist-pump ;-)

I have to respect Mike for his accomplishments. He has lived my dream. And
while he & I may express ourselves in opposite manners, I also have to
admire his intense level of confidence. I think confidence is half the
battle in bass fishing.
