Lillian Alabama mid 60's boat owner.
I hate to one up you but I have been at it for over 70 yrs. first head boat was the Mayflower out of Sheepshead Bay ! Remember the days no size restrictions, no bag limits,and $5.00 charge to board. Now that was the GOOD old days !!
coming up on 71 years and fishing about 65 catching most of those with 15 years as a charter captain on lake Michigan and 19 years as a bass tournament fisherman. If you want to be really humbled take up tournament fishing against these young guns coming up . gotta hand it to them they are really something.
Today is my 65th birthday. After 60 years of fishing, I’m still lovin’ and learnin’ the sport!!
I am 78, Steelhead fish and will Musky fishing in Canada in June. Sold my Lake Michigan boat and am now a landlubber. Still learning,
Keep fishin’ ; Stay young
Wonder how you like it not being a boat owner. I'm 69 love being on the water really love being on the water and fishing!! Thinking of selling my boat as well. Retired about 9 months ago and concerned about the expenses. Don't have to get rid of it but the ol money situation changed and keep thinking about selling.
77 here and you are right about still learning. The man who thinks he knows all there is to know has stopped learning what he doesn't know.

I sold all my salt water tackle and boat several years back. I retired and now moving to the coast. Re bought a boat and re stocking tackle..
82 and sold my boat a couple of years ago, and MISS it. Us old timers should start an old timers club.
Old timers club is a great idea. Could have a boating pool, kinda like a car pool too.
I am guessing we are all from very different areas of the country though. :)
How's Ct. fishing L.I.Sound, Pt. Judith,RI, and Montauk.
I hope to do some Montauk Fluke fishing this year.
