@Boyce im relatively new also, and yeah id say this year was strong for me, but i think that has more to do with me gaining experience on where/when/what to go fish.
As for what gallo said, I think there truth in what he said, but I think that also ignores the fact that the creel change does make a difference. Maybe not yet, but it will, I believe. As I’ve noted here before, and I’ve had Todd Mason, and Devin agree that there is a noticeable difference in the size of the throw back fish.
In 2023 everyone was complaining that every trout was 11 ¾” and now in 2024 it was 12 ¾”. The only huge change I noticed between the 2 years was the creel change and you have to try really hard to convince me otherwise lol.
With so many factors involved in fishing, it’s kinda hard to say for certain
