It's about paying dues and learning how to maximize my productivity to accelerate my learning curve.
One thing I don't want is to go out when it's just stupid good out there. I won't learn a thing. I like the challenge of a tough plunker-style bite because it forces me to think outside of the box.
When I take the plunge and go with Josh, I hope it's on a day when conditions are a bit tougher. If I go out when it's easy (for him) I won't learn as much. I wanna see that guy work for a bite, which I am sure he does far more often than not after my experience on Tuesday.

I do hope you get your wish and have alot of tuesdays ahead of you. Just not sure of your logic?. Catching a good fish just adds to the experience and learning curve in my opinion. Three simple stages of fishing...1) find the fish 2) catch the fish 3)land the fish. Hope you can someday think outside the box and put all three together.
