I have to temporarily disagree that boat fishing is easier. I just got a new boat this year and I am still learning the ropes. I have caught 5 keepers this year and none of them have been from the boat! Maybe once I figure out how to troll correctly I will agree that boat fishing is easier, but as of now it is much more challenging for me than surf fishing. Most of my serious fishing trips are alone which makes it even more difficult. Yes, a boater has the whole ocean to his disposal, but sometimes that can seem overwhelming. Perhaps when I become a seasoned veteran at fishing from a boat I will change my tune, but as of right now I feel much more comfortable from shore even when I have to walk for mile(s) on rocky surfaces etc. I would be willing to bet that most trips shore fisherman take on boats are with charter captains are veteran boat anglers that make something that is challenging look very easy.
