The LAFB lingo is where it’s at!
You know, I was thinking just this morning about how much success I have been having out there recently and why it was happening. For the first two years of having my boat, I feel like I overthought everything that I learned in all the LAFB lessons. A lot of times I would try to put a square peg in a round hole (i.e popping a cork almost exclusively no matter the water depth, not taking advantage of the conditions, focusing on “spots” more).
It seems like as soon as I started taking everything I learned at face value and simplifying it in my mind (your lessons already simplify it plenty), is when I started having more success. Now I don’t throw a cork nearly as much, I use a bait caster and fish an open faced jig head probably 75% of the time, and just simply take advantage of the conditions that are presented. It’s funny how it all just clicks one day but when it does, man its a great feeling!
