rules? we don't need no stinkin rules...
but...

zip lips, open eyes, and mind.
fish when ya can, and where ya can.
(if it's dusk to dawn, all the better)
fish the whole water column... and..
don't be stuck in a rut.. change it up.
leave the camera home
...most important...relax... lifes to %*%*in' short!

works for me.

too many rules in every other aspect of life.. why eff up fishing with them? WTF

1. You are never as good as you think
2. Fish are often where they weren't
3. You don't always need bait
4. Keep your priorities straight
5. Tie good knots
6. Sharpen your hooks
7. Test your drag
8. Step slowly
9. Fish when you can
10. Make friends

The rest will take care of itself. Amen.

Actually I'd say

1. Fish Live Bait When Available
2. Concentrate on a small area(s) and learn it(them) cold
3. Don't Chase Reports
4. STFU: Learn to be satisfied with personal satisfaction
5. Ignore the small fish that are readily available
6. Stay the course
7. Stay Confident (VERY IMPORTANT)
8. Throw your cell phone away
9. Bring a camera and a scale
10.Never Lie (A wiseman named Mike Veracka once said a fisherman only has his integrity, once you lose that, you're always a liar)

1. Fish at night
2. Fish the bottom
3. Fish eels
4. Fish big fish spots
5. Fish big fish gear
6. Fish the rule, not the exception
7. Keep your mouth shut
8. Structure; current
9. Listen, learn, adapt
10. Time in the surf

Sooner or later you're going to realize just as I did that there's a difference between knowing the path and walking the path. - Morpheus
