I suck. Work has killed my fishing this year more than any previous.

I can at least see the water now. Haven't been able to work in the fishing part though.
Live to far from the water to make happen. Once the kid is in high school it may work better.

Being in management and on salary, my fishing time is is ultra-flexible so long as my staff shows up and is competent. I am fortunate to have a good staff and an undrestanding boss who knows that my work schedule coincides with the tide chart. Living and working within 2 minutes of the ocean kinda helps too...

I work late nights I fish, leave straight from work so I can roll in late the next day.

I have to work an average of 55 hours a week, usually at the office from 7 am until 6pm or later. When I get home from work it's family time until the kids are in bed. By the time I get out the door it's usually around 10pm. During the week, I'll fish until 3 or 4am usually, then catch a couple hours of sleep before work. Weekends I can stay out a little longer, but still usually try to get home before the kids wake up so that I don't get heat for letting fishing get in the way of family time. It's a balancing act, and for me, sleep is what gets sacrificed. I'll catch up on the sleep after the bass leave....
