Blue collar = obsession (spends more time fishing than money for coffee, gaining more experience than "top of the line" gear.) Tends to know all the rocks on their favorite jetty personally, and at night!

This has been my observation, and by no means is indicative of surfcasters as a whole.
No offense taken, but I think your very wrong. Don't assume that just because someone is "white collar" that they are making any more money than the "blue collar" people.

What you do for work, or how you pay your bills has absolutely nothing to do with how much effort or love you put into fishing.

I'm BC and getting toward 60, I sure need a lot of breaks during my outings these days. I still enjoy and live for the surf, but I'm beat. Still, the few times that I get to see a sunrise on the back beaches is absolutely priceless to me.
In my prime, I fished non stop for days on end, every chance I got.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
