The beauty is that each has its own attractions and mystical qualities to it that are - for me - somewhat hard to express. The feeling laying into a decent fish in a 20kt in-your-face wind while looking at the lights of Block Island and the dance on the horizon of Montauk is awesome, especially knowing must are all tucked in for the night and are missing this!!! Surreal in some ways as it touches the soul. On the other hand, running fast on flat-a$$ mirrored-glass calm seas with the smell of sunrise forced through your nostrils as the anticipation builds. You throttle down and creep then drift into your honey whole, whip your offering into the rocks, sense the hit coming and fight and land nice fish! This also does wonders on your psyche!

Both are awesome, both, taken seriously represent various challenges, enjoyment, and absolute satisfaction
