I would say this:

If you don't have the confidence that you can fish a particular spot safely then don't fish it.

I say this because as I have become older and have some physical issues that make fishing certain places not really safe for me anymore.Does this limit the amount of quality fish that I can catch?Absolutely but I still manage to whack a decent fish once in awhile and I'm still out there enjoying my time on the water.
