Confidence is not something that just happens. It requires years of dedication to the sport. For example, the more fishing trips you take, the greater your confidence becomes as you gain insight into different situations. But confidence often goes beyond fishing. Your outlook on life plays an important role in confidence building.
Professional anglers strive to keep upbeat perspectives about their situations.
Some pros even visit sports psychologists to help them build confidence. Weekend anglers should also work at their mental attitudes as a way to nurture confidence. The key to any job is having good equipment. A carpenter can't build a house with a broken saw. A bank teller can't cash your tournament check with a crashed computer terminal.
