Do you prefer to go solo or bring someone along fishing? I know I like going alone, for many reasons.

I prefer to fish alone unless it's with my son.

I like both. I'm probably about half and half. I think there are positives to both. I like the serenity of being out by myself. I like going out with a friend as well. Sometimes I like the fish to myself and others I like to share the experience. Sure is nice to have someone helping with fuel though when I'm in the glass boat.

depends, a lot of times though its nice to be alone with your thoughts

Alone. Most of the rest of my life requires me to be social. Fishing is the best way I have found to get away from people for awhile.

Both.

Not very often that I get annoyed with myself.

Both. I enjoy being alone sometimes, but other times I like having a friend to talk to, crack jokes with, and catch fish with.

Reminds me of a good George Thorogood And The Destroyers song...

 

I fish alone, yeah / With nobody else
I fish alone, yeah / With nobody else
Yeah, you know when I fish alone / I prefer to be by myself

I used to fish alone, met and married the woman of my dreams and now it's always the two of us.

Beautiful, rides motorcycles and fishes.  I have the PERFECT woman!

Having company sometimes make fishing even more enjoyable. I seem to get the most bites when I am chatting away with my buddy. Sadly, I also miss the most bites as well chatting with him... 

I enjoy fishing with someone most of the time, but fishing alone is great.

Both, depending on my mood. I really enjoy taking someone new out and watching their excitement when we do well. I especially like passing on my fishing addiction to my grandchildren.

Depends on who it is. Although in general I love to pass the sport on, I honestly don't like taking someone who has no idea how to fish bc it's more just me teaching them instead of fishing myself. Selfish, I know. I can only do it every once in a while. 

I love fishing with my brother, and also with my boss, who loves fishing and hunting. 

 

But for the most part, I'm out there alone. 

I prefer alone. But I'll sometimes take my daughter, who doesn't like fishing as much as I do but loves making noise and getting in front of where I'm casting. My dad is now in his 70's and fishing wears him out.

 

I have a buddy I'll go with sometimes when he invites me because he has a boat. That's the only way easier than taking my kayak. When I go with him I usually bring home some fish to clean.

I enjoy fishing alone and with a friend. I used to go alone quite a bit at night when I had my boat because I liked to stay until I was ready to come home which was usually 4 or 5 in the morning. I used to take friends at night with the stipulation they were stuck until I was ready to pack it in unless there was an emergency. So they knew what they were getting into beforehand. LOL. I hate to hear someone belly aching about how late it's getting...Otherwise I enjoy fishing with someone who is like-minded and won't give in until we both agree we've had enough...

On lakes I prefer alone but I'll take a friend every now and then. Ponds I like to go with a friend.

I'd have to say both. Bringing a friend is great as long as that friend can cast, it's nothing like spending all day pulling up on a great looking spot and their first cast is in the trees. Going alone also great because I seem to accomplish more. What I mean is that I spend most of the time locked on the sonar trying to figure out new spots, but when a friend comes along I generally take them to spots that I'm pretty sure will produce so I'm not trying out new stuff.

Sounds like a hat trick and that's almost always a winner. I got two outa three and it's worked for 45yrs.

I prefer having a companion along, especially if momma doesn't know.

I have 4 sons & 5 grandsons

I still cast into trees. Not so much with a BC, but since I'm still kinda new to spinning reels and not used to the release times, I tend to catch a lot of tree bass with them.

I generally fish by myself. I don't have patient friends.

I do take my boy often.

Mainly alone @ 4am.

I prefer to take my dog. He has yet to complain about a bad day.

I like fishing with my friend, but I definitely fish better alone. I focus more on fishing instead of trying to outfish him. (Everything's a competition for him.)
