I try never to be critical of others methods of fishing . I too started out with a white bucket chuncking bait and drinking lots of beer . We fished well , caught many large fish and never made a spectical of ourselves (like some do) . The local waters for me the bucket brigade cathes more fish than any other type of fishing . That being said I dont fish that way any longer but I dont fish my local waters often . Like link said who the hell are we . We are fisherman not rocket scientists . and either way we will end up the same . dust to dust .

When I first started out in the early 70s . I thought you had to run up to the surf and cast hard . My grandfather used to laugh at me " go for it kid LI isnt that far away " . we chuncked often and caught large fish . I learned that with time I found the strength in me to just stand and cast like I did in the freshwater . Today I still do stupid things in others minds but thats Ok . for most of us its not our method of survival so have FUN fishing . its only fishing and dont take it too seriously .
