Default Breaking personal bests

It's usually a sign of growing experience, often coupled with a change of
water.
I've had a similar path until a couple of years ago when I levelled off.
Time for a rethink on water and approach I think ;-)

Been fishing for about four years now......my biggest carp was 13lb for
three years...........a month ago it went up with a 16 3/4lb ghost
carp.......then on monday i caught a 21 1/2lb mirror....couldn't believe
it and thought i'll probably never catch one bigger than that or at
least not for a long time anyway.......then went out yesterday and
caught one 23lb in 3 hours fishing......so now i reckon i'll probably
blank for the rest of the year but wondered if many people had similar
experiences with regard to personal best fish(any species) coming along
like buses.....i've heard it happens a lot
