In Fishing, is Bigger, better?

On the whole big best to me. Ordinarily I'd rather catch one 7lb chub than ten 5lbers or a 30lb+ carp over a hundred 10lbers.
Though there occasions when I go for numbers, like fishing for chub and/or barbel on the Severn, or carp at Clattercote etc
It's remembering, often waters that hold truly big fish have low numbers.
My thoughts exactly, (my first post by the way)

Ah, but would you rather fish through 100 blanks knowing that your 30lber is waiting at the end......or would you rather catch innumerable 10lbers in the expectation of a 30 the next time you have a bite???

I prefer to fish in hope rather than expectation, but whatever comes along I will enjoy each and every fish and I certainly never stop enjoying my surroundings, thus I couldn't and wouldn't, fish a featureless concrete basin even if it was full of 4lb Roach.
Each to their own....
