[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 271850, member: 337"] I would say the trophy deer take way more time and resources - with trophy fish you just have to get in the right places at the right time - and none of that involves having to buy water to fish, food for fish, cameras to track, equipment for food crops, etc. obtaining trophy deer is therefore "harder" as for the actual act of taking the animal... it seems catching a lunker is harder than killing a deer [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] fascinating topic OP [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Keep in mind that MSA has spent 1000s of hours cold, wet, tired, windburned, and often times getting skunked to get where he is with big fish knowledge. Like Ahab, etc. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] OK - as you can see - I am officially on the fence with regard to the topic [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Maybe the place to look is at how often young anglers/hunters score trophies. It seems like I see a lot more "12 year old bags 2nd biggest whitetail in the state" type stories than "12 year old catches 2nd biggest walleye in the state" type stories. [/QUOTE]
