Veering off into left field.... I am a tournament fisherman, have for all of my adult life, won my fair share and at least was competitive in most of them (except for this past Saturday grin) . And I flatly reject this 'fishing for 5 bites' notion. The concept of fishing for "big fish" is goofy, at least with this notion that you're intentionally going to use something that limits your bites, with the idea that only a "big" fish will bite your lure. I'm fishing for EVERY bite, and I'll cull them as I go. I guess what I'm saying is never, in no way, do I want to limit the number of bites I get. But maybe I just don't know what I don't know. I didn't realize there were places where ONLY big fish live and eat. I've caught every size fish, in every place I fish, on every lure I've used, deep, shallow, every method. I'm just not gonna chance going bust because I'm using some oversized lure thinking I'll magically catch fish that I wouldn't have otherwise caught on normal sized lures.

Besides, what is a "big' fish? Humh??? Which lake? What day? How do you know what it would take THAT day? Five 4 pounders?...12 pounds?...it's just goofy. I want to catch 50 fish, and keep the biggest 5 of them, whatever they may be (and usually they're big enough)

We were on the edge of Eternia, when the power of Greyskull began to take hold.
