I'm thinking that a use to which I could put one of my GMCs is as a
base of operations to work out of and go to the coast on the weekends
to fish for oysters or whatever on a commercial basis. I don't know
if my wife's Veteran status will let her get a free commercial fishing
license, but it's not that expenseive...

Anyway, this comes under the heading of "hare brained idea" the likes
of which usually wind up as a story later that begins with "There I
was..."

I know damn-all about anything bigger than 14 foot aluminum "jon-boat"
and have never been on any body of water larger than the Ross Barnett
Resevoir (avg depth 8 feet). And I've never fished for anyything but
catfish with a cane pole, and that was only when I was small child and
my father was trying to instill SOME sort of traditional southern boy
skills in me before he gave up in frustration. :)

So, that said, has anybody out there in the Hive Mind fished for
oysters on a weekend basis, and besides taking whatever Coast
Guard/boating safety classes I can get my hands on, does anybody have
any good advice (or horrible examples, those are fun too) about doing
such a thing?
