Team Jo-Jo:
Have a question???????????????
🎣 Known vs. Unknown — Which One Hurts More?
While we were fishing, we started wondering about two scenarios that every angler faces at some point… and we couldn’t decide which one is worse: the known or the unknown.
⚓ Scenario 1: Known
You’re reeling in a BIG fish.The fight is on, and you win—almost.You get her to the boat, you see this beautiful big fish in all her glory...Then—POP! Off she goes just as you try to flip her in.
You've seen her. You know exactly what you lost.That image stays with you, haunts you, and plays over and over in your mind like a broken record.You tell yourself, “If only I had grabbed the line better, if only I had waited...”
⚓ Scenario 2: Unknown
You’re reeling in what feels like a monster.The rod’s bent, drag screaming, arms burning—this is the fight of your life.Then—gone. Just like that.You never even get a glimpse.
What was it? A 30-inch Silverwonder? A bull Redwarrior? A prehistoric marsh beast?You’ll never know. It becomes a story with no ending, a ghost fish that will live in your imagination forever.
🤔 So… What Scenario is Worse?
That’s the million-dollar question Team Jo-Jo asked on the water.
Big Ron says one thing. Oneofthepack says another.We ain't got a clear answer, just two aching memories and one more reason to go back out there and settle the score.
🎣 Curious what the rest of Team Jo-Jo thinks… Known or Unknown?Let’s hear it at the next Fishing Curriculum Session.
