If you don't seem to get this, or are not sure how to move in that direction, I give you the gift of a 100- page book a good friend gave to me several weeks ago. WHo MoVed MY CHeeSe, by Spencer Johnson, Md . It's a small, simple tale that helps you to understand and react to changes in our lives. I now believe after reading it, KVD, Skeet and Aaron, have read this book and keep it with them at all times. The bass is the "cheese" as related to by the author. This book

will not give you any secrets about

the techniques,

tools or the behavior of bass in our fishing world. Yet it will simplify and implant in your mind what it is you need to do out on the water when fishing conditions change. You just need to make that decision to change.
