That's true dryrod. We aren't catching anymore fish than back in the day, infact, we're catching alot less.
For one, there's alot less fish out there. Fish populations are way down in alot of species. Two, I think the fish are more challenging to catch. It's kinda like a blue tick hound. The best hunting dogs i've ever seen weren't taught a damn thing; it's in thier genes. I think over the years the fish's senses have adapted to our fishing tactics; kinda like poping out of the egg knowing that if there's a line attached, it's bad for business. The fish are evolving with the change in times, hints the reason we catch less fish even though our equipment has advanced.
But what do you think guys and gals, are the fish getting smarter, or are we getting dumber? How about it Ted? [
