I like first water, but seldom get it. Usually down in the middle of the fleet. My rivers are coastal.....here is what I deal with...... 50% of the people dont have a clue, they take the wrong line or anchor on top of the fish. Another 20% dont have good bait, presentation or are also lost soles...............soooo, there are usually lots of fish left for the taking....The first time I heard this saying, I was very young and inexperienced and I thought the person saying was soo very concieted, but as I learn more, it becomes truere and truer........"It's not so much where you are, but who you are"
