Would love to say my dad, but he is not a fisherman. He was a private pilot so I grew up flying not fishing.
It may surprise some to know that the first time I went salt water fishing was about 20 years ago. Went on a charter out of Montauk with some co workers and loved it. The same group of guys still go every year first Saturday in June. We have not missed a year and still use the same captain and boat! So I went once a year for the first two or three years and decided I love the sport and must do more of it. I started going solo on the head boats out of the highlands and the rest is history. I made up for a lot of lost time over the last 15 years or so
. I figure at this point I have fished more then people who have been fishing their whole lives and I don't plan on slowing down.
I am glad that I have had the chance to introduce my children to the sport. They all love it!
