Boat vs Shore

Shore Fisherman: Study structure, bait & preditor habits, tides & current affects on feeding, affects of the moon, wind & season on their prey, changes in beaches yearly, take written or mental notes on when & where they have had success and under what conditions and year after year with continued hard work achieve additional success.


Boat Fisherman: Ditto basically, less maybe paying too much attention to changes in the beach layouts seasonally.

sure any number of surf fishers that have paid their dues, have had nights that rival anything boaters have seen, in fact my most memoral blitz came off a beach in Scituate. Why was I there to take advantage, let me think; putting in my time.

You forgot to mention that boat fishermen study their fishfinder and yell out when trolling.."Fish in 10 seconds!"

Boat fish count, but I have a lot more respect for the skilled shore angler
