Great stories guys. Here's mine....
When I was younger I'd plan a fishing trip around a date. The date was whenever me and my buddies could get away for a weekend. No cell phones back then, no weather apps, etc. Hell we didn't know if it would be raining or even a tropical storm that weekend - we are going anyway.
It was get up before the sun, hit the water at first light. No idea what is biting, but we are going to give it our best all day long no matter what.
Nowadays, it is up by 7 or 8, make a nice breakfast, check tides/weather and decide when we might leave. Normally on the water around 10 (depending on tide) and we still give it our best and sometimes even stay late. We just fish a little smarter now that we are getting older.
So no just you. Things change as you get older.
