Who lasts longer at surfcasting?

[Clogston29]

no corrolation between blue and white collar IMO

comes down to who takes care of themselves the best

I think you nailed it NO corrolation.

Mental toughness and attitude (oh yeah patience) is probably what the deciding factors are between a guy who leaves after an hour and a guy who fished two tides.

there seams to be two seperate debates here:

1. who lasts longer, in terms of years
2. who lasts longer on individual trips

i interprated the question to be 1 and answered that

if 2 was the question, i again say that there is no correlation, but taking care of yourself doesn't come into play as much - unless your already in poor health

tagger - i'm picturing you in short shorts, a bright colored sleeveless t-shirt and a headband in an aerobics class

I'll take #^&#^&#^&#^& Simmons any day...us white collar guys have to stick together...in more ways than one!

Given identical twins that ate the same type of food and equal ambition for surfcasting then I'd say the white collar. During their younger years, I don't know, maybe a toss up. However, as they get older injuries of younger years come back in the form of arthritis, etc and it is more likely the blue collar labor worker will have these aliments that require back or knee surgery because they are a higher risk.

As an aside.
Just look at friends of your age that were jocks (white and blue) and were good in sports throughout and ten years after high school, now they have knee, back, torn muscles, etc.

I have found that coffee, potato chips and a fattie work wonders for an all nighter.

Plus you hang that carrot of PITS in front of the NIB and he's a mule like no other..

Whomever can afford long term HGH treatments, along with the occasional 'roid treatments for injuries recovery. Better living through chemistry. Science can make the ultimate surfcaster.

You guys make it seem like Yard work..I'm close to 30 years a tile man.At close to 50 I'm starting to feel the pains of a lifetime of schlepping.There's no sense in complaining everyone has problems.I do think I might have been better off with a profession that did not wear on my body like mine does.But you know they say the grass is always greener.While I hardly have the athlete's body I once did I have no problem fishing thru the night.It's not about endurance or perseverance.It's something I enjoy doing..It takes a lot for me to leave.I can go home and sleep easy on good nights it's the tough nights that keep me up till dawn every time.
I can not stand not catching IMO there is no reason for it.They are biting somewhere and I have to find em.Some call it madness I call it LOVE..
Thats why I prefer to fish alone.I don't want my time on the water to be dictated by someone else.Most times when the fishing is tough I am the last one standing.I have a few good fish under my belt that I have taken during this time to remind why I stay..

LOL. Once you hit 50 you quit worrying about how you feel and start worrying about what you got left for fishing time ......... not that you can remember once you figure it out.
