How about all of us freshwater converts that found out the hard way how important the drag on a reel is.

Anchored in 10' of crystal clear water (with not a fish in sight) in cape cod bay with an ugly stick, a giant chunk of bait, 2oz lead sinker, 67 beers in the cooler, a flat of sea worms, a pound or two of clams, 6 guys in the boat, and not a fish within 2 miles of us. We figured, hey just drop the bait in and they will come! It's funny how they never came... The boat's gone now, and we've all since had the opportunity to do a bunch of dumb stuff from shore too! Live and learn...
