By request here is one story of my Dad and I on a fishing trip. We were in North Carolina on vacation and on this day decided to go to a park with access to the inter coastal water way. At that time there was a wooden staircase that went from the parking area down to the water level. At low tide there was plenty of beachy area to stand on to fish. But not this time. For some reason my Dad wanted to go as the tide was coming in. This meant that the area to stand in and fish was getting smaller and smaller. It would not have been a problem except that the boat traffic was kind of heavy that day. And the boats would run about full throttle to where ever they were going. The water way was pretty wide in this area but that just gave the wakes more room to grow before they hit the shore. We were pretty much backed up against the bank with nowhere to run to. When the first boat came thru we backed up as far as we could and watched as the first wave came crashing in towards us. It rolled up just about to our knees and then hit the bank behind us. Neither one of us expected what happened next. The wave crashed into the bank behind us and climbed up over our heads and then splashed back over us from behind giving us and instant shower. We just stood there and looked at each other for a second or two then busted out laughing. We were soaked from head to toe. We both had on jeans, t-shirts, and sneakers. I think my Dad had a flannel shirt on as well. We stayed and tried to fish some more but after the third wave crashing over us we decided we had had enough. The last time I visited that park the bank had eroded so much that the stairs were gone and there was no access for fishing. At least I have my happy memories fishing with my Dad.
