When you've got a young family, fishing efficiently is the only way to survive. Years of fishing efficiently is a hard habit to break. But when your kids are grown and off (sadly sooner than you think possible) efficiency takes a back seat to just getting out there......and just getting out there becomes the primary reward in itself.
