How many of you fall into this "hard core" category

[Got Stripers]

Let me think, does spending 60 minutes to bust through 4 inches of ice to launch my Lund in the Thames in February count?

Was once on the most incredible smallmouth bite the last day of a Maine camping trip, I ran 9 miles to the truck to pull the spare battery, so I could continue use of the trolling motor which I needed to take advantage of a school of 4-5 lbers; all for the last hour of daylight.

Yes I've been that guy.

[Fly Rod]

when fishing from boat for stripers it was 15 minutes at a spot no hits move on....would do my spots in 3-4 hours and head home....can't catch a striper in 15 minutes they R not biting or not there....

Now when fishing for mac's from shore I allow 3-4 cast and pack the rod back in truck and leave while others sit there for one more cast which normally last a couple of hrs. with nuten....
