Boat fishing is easier

[macojoe]

I am to Lazy to surf fish!! I boat only!! Catching fish is easier, but taking care of said boat, surf guys have us beat there!

I was in a spot today were we got 30 fish (stripers) 20 fish 30+ #'s 1 40# and the rest all in the 20's!! Best Bass day ever!!
O yea 171 pounds Fluke also!!

They are both easy, that is why it is known as recreation. When it becomes a job then it is a nuiscance. I don't know anyone that can't see a striped bass on a fishfinder,just look on the floor for crying out loud. You can't see all of them but you can certainly see your share.Anyone who is willing to pay attention to details and has the advantage of learning from a REAL fisherman can do well in a short amount of time.I speak from experience as I have been fortunate to fish with excellent surf as well as boat guys.Some years are better than others in their respective categories but I can't imagine NOT being able to land a lot of quality fish as long as I make the sacrifices that go hand in hand with catching large.I don't believe in a fishing log as much as instinct and I have NEVER caught at the keyboard.
Enjoy the fishing season,for it is gone before you know it. Fish have tails so if they are not in your honey hole one night try again the next. Sooner or later you will hit the jackpot.
