so say some of the grumblers. Maybe they’re right, maybe the weak winters and skinny flows in the early 2000’s put down several cycles of bugs (seemed to me that it did), maybe increased pressure is spooking fish off the Ranch (doubt it), maybe there’s just more rookies out there (definitely – i was one myself 10 years ago). Or maybe the lens of nostalgia is always optimistic? HFF ran a study last year to try to get some answers. Research always has bias, but interesting.
