I've had my best days in terms of catching on the boat. But, I've had good outings from shore as well. I always enjoy fishing whether it's from shore or the boat and whether I'm catching or not. I fish mainly plugs on light tackle when I'm on the boat, which is still much easier than surfcasting. But it's also more of a challenge than trolling wire or leadcore while sitting back with a drink watching the rod holders.
For me, the best thing about the boat is that we can head out and pick up some keeper bass in the early morning, then when the bite is slow, move on and pick up some fluke and seabass for the cooler.
