Do you ever just want to break your rods in half and beat the lake up with them?

I must be the unluckiest fisherman in the world!

I have spent stupid amounts of money on fishing stuff this year and I have spent STUPID amounts of time out fishing. I've went piking at least 10 times and not one pike have I caught...

Only this year have i got into feeder & waggler fishing. It was great at the start, catching roach/rudd/perch all day long. (To be honest i started at a good time as they were spawning) But now the spawning is over im not catching as much, and im sick catching small fish. Im after something bigger now, i.e. a nice big bream. So, this week alone I have spent (15 hours on monday) + (5 hours yesterday) = 20 hours fishing for bream (not counting the hours ive spent in the last few weeks) and I havent caught one, ive had a few roach/perch/rudd.

So last night, my mate who has minimal knowledge and i mean MINIMAL, goes out to a lake for an hour and a half and he pulls out about 5 decent bream...

God - What have I done wrong?

I'm ready to take up golfing instead.

I know exactly how it feels like. But I am not near enough to give up yet.

Re: Do you ever just want to break your rods in half and beat the lake up with them?

if you saw how many times i failed for a pike last year you would have thought that was going to be me,( a full year without)

but its always the expectation of what will be next that gets me out again
