Default Days on the water per year

How much do y'all get on chasin em? Since I've stopped fishing college tournaments I haven't been after them nearly as much. Went from pretty much every weekend to maybe once every other month. I obviously feel I would fish much better if I spent more time in the water. How about y'all?

At least 8 days a month now. But, we are about to be living full time in Hackberry so I hope I can fish 15 or so days a month.

I too keep records. Between trout fishing out west and down here I get out about 50 times a year. Been out 13 times so far in 2015.

40-50 a year most years, 10-15 last year. Worked myself into too much on my plate, and my kids played football for the first time which stole half my summer and all my fall!

This year is shaping up to be different though, got relief to cover the work side of things now.

Same here. Before my little girl was born in January of 2014 I was on the water a minimum of 4 days a month. Since then I have been on the water 6 days and that was all in one trip to Gand Isle during snapper season.

I think it's time to sale the boat to someone who will be able to enjoy it more and hope to be able to buy another one when the little one is old enough to join me on the water.

After being at work Monday - Friday and barely getting to spend time with my daughter it's hard to voluntarily leave her on the weekends to go fishing. Wouldn't trade it for anything though!
