It's also a good idea to always have someone at the helm, watching what's coming in from the sea and keeping you safe from shore [or reef, rocks, rips, etc], if some troubling waves come through, don't wait to reel in, just get out of there ... had to push my cousin out of the way to throttle the boat out of a cresting wave ... I was fighting a fish, saw the wave coming up and told him to get out of there ... for some reason he was frozen, said he did not want me to lose the fish ... fortunate that i was able to get out of there ... and that fish was still on the end of the rod when we were further out and safe ... still gets my hair standing up on end ...
