DIY sal****er trips are very challenging. It's hard to find a place
where you don't need both a boat and a guide.

that is one reason, I didn't mention, that I haven't pursued it more, even
at the daydream level

I don't think I'd be comfortable fishing with a guide ... I've never tried
.... It's not that I have anything 'ethically' against the idea, or
that I couldn't find the money if I raised the priority level .. it's that
.....


well, I've often thought of it as kinda like hiring someone to watch you
make love and throw in the occasional suggestion .... I can see how it might
speed learning and success, ... but, there are just things I prefer to learn
more privately G
