Not for me. I've only gone fishing 3 times and all at sea (actually ocean...Pacific Ocean). Last time I was out, we had to be rescued at sea. Okay, not that dramatic...the outboard wouldn't go down and we had to be tugged in. We were lucky we weren't too far from shore and we were able to use our cell phones to call for help. Could have gone really bad if we were far out in the Pacific Ocean. Only trip where I didn't catch something.
What is your idea of a dream vacation?
