Im here to ask for help from much experienced designers about my logo that just got rejected. First version of it was this one, that got declined:

It's understandable, I didnt spent too much time on it, will admit it.
But after that I motivated myself to make it much better and here we go to the second version of it:

The explanation I got in both cases is basically always the same: "logo itself not on standard". I think some references about what I did wrong would've helped. And that's what bringed me back here.
One more question. Should I even try to make it better or it's just a bad logo overall and I should move on?
Many thanks!

@crisadesign,
honestly i think you should just move on and remember to always think what kind of company is gonna buy your logo? try not to make something very specific as i don't think combining a wallet and a fishing rod is a good idea for any business.
Good luck!

I guess I will since you tought that that's a wallet and not a book. The logo was named "Catch Info" but I guess it wasnt catchy enough. Gonna move on as you said. Thanks for your reply and your advices.

I apologize, but it feels like you make a logo for those who will look at it through a magnifying glass. Try to avoid small details. The logo is an element that should look great even on a matchbox (in the upper corner).
The second concept is certainly more interesting than the first. But there is a graphical errors.
Good luck!

Thanks for your feedback, @FuturaSan, will take some notes.
