Good Advice on Making Sacrifices
Over the years, many young people and aspiring pros have asked me for the best career advice I could give them. My answer has always been simply “come early and stay late.”
Fishing is like anything else – you get out of if what you put into it. In this sport, there is no substitute for experience. And you only get that from spending time on the water. I see fishermen shortchange themselves by not spending enough time on the water or in tournaments not using the whole practice day.
But another way fishermen shortchange themselves is by not really using their time on the water. By that I mean not concentrating on what they’re doing enough to learn from every hour that they spend on the water, whether they’re practicing for a tournament, guiding or just fun-fishing.
