When I was a kid I went fishing with my paternal grandmother in ponds and the Mississippi River. It was fun because I was with her. It was not something I stuck with - I think it was more about the company and not the fishing.
Every couple years I got to go deep sea fishing with my maternal grandfather who was through the years a charter boat owner and captain for other people. Not the big party charter boats but boats for a small group of fisherman. His main goal was to land a marlin but all the fishing was great. Fish he considered small were enormous compared to what I had pulled from the ponds in Iowa.
Even when deep sea fishing wasn't so good, it was wonderful. Time spent with granddaddy on the Gulf Stream...loved every minute of it.
