[QUOTE="KDM, post: 271864, member: 314"] If you ignore large sums of money and just focus on the average guy going to do either one, hunting is WAY harder than fishing to obtain a trophy IMO. Example: The chances this average guy (with boat) can access a lake where trophy walleye (10lb+) can be had are almost guaranteed. Let's say Lake Erie, which is chock full of huge walleyes. With some research on where to go on Erie, when to fish, and what to use, one only needs to spends a grand or so and the time to drive from ND to Lake Erie and fish there. Conversely, the chances this same said average guy finds a trophy (160+) white tail on land he can access, have time to hunt there, hope the deer shows up, and another hunter doesn't take it or some azzhat night shoot it are not so guaranteed. So if we are talking "Luck" as the debatable factor, I submit that it takes magnitudes more luck to find, access, and take a trophy white tail than it does to find, access, and catch a trophy walleye.
