As a lure maker I have to say your wrong you have to have my lures or you wot get fish. hahah JUST KIDDING.
no your right the more you know about the fish, and water your fishing the better chance at getting fish, weather you have that new fishfinder,new $350 pole and that $30 lure. yes they might get you one by chance but the more you know the basics the better you'll be at hooking more often.
take me fishing for musky. when I heard they put them in pineview I ordered 10 musky lures out of a catalog. I ordered 2 musky videos . well I thought that because I had that stuff I knew that I would start to get fish. I gave it 2 years before I started to go after them (I wanted big fish) I put in about 50000000 cast the first few years with out seeing a fish. then they put them in newton. I fished newton all the time for bass and crappie. so I did more reading about musky because now I new the lake. it still took me 2 years to hook my first musky but now I have just run the basics I learned up to newton at pineview and I started to pick up fish most of the time I went. like I tell people that what to know what lure to use to get them I use this or that but you need to fish with what you like not what I like I learned how to fish my lures(learnd the basics)but if I handed you one of my lures and didn't help you on how to fish it then most likely you wont get a fish.
anyway you are right think BASICS.
