What makes a good fishing trip?

Hey guys,

In your opinion what makes a good fishing trip?

GOOD COMPANY.......period. No frills. No wine and dine. Just GOOD company.
And a somewhat reasonable optimistic expectation to adding to the "species" or target list. Don't need a LOT of fish.....if that is the need, I'll stay home and do it here.

Amen to good company!! Planning/preparing/traveling/fishing with my fishin' partner, traveling to new/old places (adventure??), good captains/guides, fishing'/catchin' (we do eat some of the fish we catch but don't bring 'em back from trips), good places to eat/good food/drink. Reasonable cost!! Sorry for the generalities but there's too many reasons that go into what makes a good trip for me to list here....

For me it really is the people as mentioned before. I started writing about the adventure/new location being critical. That part is great, but as I was writing that I thought about so many great fishing trips across the farm I was living on, to the little bass pond, or fishing the same place I have a zillion times catching stockers on Donner Lake, but this time with my son.

Carl thanks for getting me/us to think about this! Heck I even started looking at old pictures because of this thread
