Great read. I'm from Utah, but like to visit Hawaii. I read your post and thought that you might like this quote from Earnest Hemmingways "[url "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Old_Man_and_the_Sea"]The Old Man and the Sea[/url]" I am sure you have read it. If not, you might enjoy it..
It is the old man talking about catching a big marlin, and Luck combined with the placement of his bait.
"Every day is a new day. It is better to be lucky. But, I prefer to be exact. Then when luck comes, you are ready."
Thought it applied to your comments about the skill and luck combined to land a "grander"
Congrats on another monster catch! I am here in Utah Hoping that this year I can catch a fish that will weigh more than 10lbs!
I enjoyed your post.
