Clammer, forty-five years working the water. It's a livelihood. I'm living that livelihood, but everyday, at least once, the thought comes to mind--Is this what I want to do? And then I look around, see something that gets me thinking the other direction-- yeah, this isn't so bad. I've been on this seesaw since 1989. Most of the time I spent offshore, but the past five years I've been working up inside, a lee shore everywhere I look. Forty-five years........I fished with a lot guys who have been at it as long as you, and every one of them, just about, said the same thing. Get out of this while your still young. I listened to them and got off the trip boats, now I'm home every night and when the bass show up, I go after them with the good old rod and reel. I can only imagine how well you know the bay. Time on the water is great. But still those questions pop up, esp. in the wintertime.
