Default Just curious?

What if you were casting those spinnerbaits into a stiff wind? I'll bet I'd
cover twice the water than John would in a day of fishing...

My casts would be longer, and I'd make a lot more of them.

i think the advantage would be different depending on the type of

lure/bait
used. if we were using spinnerbaits, and assuming you could cast
accurately, not much difference. however if we were dropshotting in cold
water with inactive bass that only mouthed the lure on the drop, i think

you
would be at a tremendous disadvantage. but i think the skill factor is

much
more important than the tackle, just like equipment in any other sport. i
am sure tiger woods could use the cheapest walmart clubs made and kick my
butt golfing if i had the best clubs money could buy.

however the better you get at anything the better equipment you usually
want, whether you need it or not.

What do you all think about the importance of using "high" end
equiptment? What percentages would you each place on equiptment verses
technique? If you and I were equally competent as to our bass fishing
skills, fishing out of the same boat, and I used a Little HSX 40 Quantum
rod with a little IC 20 Quantum reel, and you had the best rod and reel
money could buy (based on your choice)...what percentage of advantage
would you feel you had over me? We are fishing the same baits in the
same water at the same time. The fishing is compatible for my set
up...no heavy weeds to pull em out of, etc. So, I am just curious as to
the individual "weighing" of the importance of high tech equiptment
(high priced) grin. All other things being equal...what percentage of
advantage do you think you could gain over me in equiptment only?
