Boat or Surf?

[eelman]

Its all fishing, All I can say is I like the boat very much now and I am sorry I did not do it sooner....I was the same way about boats when I was younger....said I would never do it..its amazing what age and time will do..Humping Surf and rocks for many, many years its a great change... and a new challenge.You mello with age!

I will say the Surf was where my fishing skills were honed and that is a great tool to have when crossing over to a boat I also paid my dues so to speak, made it much easier for me..I met with almost instant success in my boat...the hardest part was learning to dock, avoid boulders and just the overall boat handeling thing. But I knew how to fish and what to look for.

I find it a complete luxery and an overall fun experiance...The boat not only gave me great fishing but also something to "tinker" with...I love working on it, adding new things, sitting in at the marina..I love running down the bay late at night with that wind in my face and not another boat around, its like flying! and its gorgeous out there. I have taken a couple of "diehard" Surf guys out with me and they had more fun than they expected and, did not want to get off the boat!

Is the Surf special? To me it is, I owe alot to Surf fishing....however its always good to see another side.....At this point in my life I can at least be honest and say, I will never be without a boat again...For many reasons , not just fishing.
