I think, you become experienced when you gain confidence....Like, when ya walk up to a stretch or body of water, old or new, and just have that feeling of confidence, that you have a pretty good idea whats goin to work, along with some back up plans....That totally comes down to time on the water, having a good positive attitude, a good concentration, keeping your mind open to new tactics, casting with other people that have a similar outlook as yourself, and taking the slow days as a learning experience...Thats kinda how I look at it.... ...
