For most boat guys, striper fishing is a day-time pursuit with good numbers of fish and a lot of keepers - but not too many fish over twenty pounds. Surfcasters often migrate toward boats later in life, but few become really skilled boatmen and fewer still top their personal bests from shore...People uderestimate the skills needed to be a confident inshore fisherman from a boat and they simply don't get there unless they start fairly young.

good post joe.
