Nope, not me
I enjoy fishing with my feet on the ground way too much to give it up just for boat fishing even though I do a fair amount of boat fishing each year inshore. Besides, ya can't fish in the canal from a boat, only from shore.
I have a limited time to fish since I currently live on the other side of the pond but I would never trade shore fishing for fishing from a boat even if you would guarantee me double the fish. There is something that is magical about catching a fish from the surf that you can not match in a boat. Whether it is a keeper at night or a fish at dawn or during the day that you see hit your plug it is so much more exciting than drifting eels or bucktailing the race (even though that is fun). When I talk to people that do not fish and want to know about why so much of my holiday revolves around fishing I almost never mention boat trips it is watching the sun break over your back after a long night casting or the simple pleasure of being the only person in the water fishing and the contrast from your normal existence.
