Since I was a kid, opening day has always been the "official" start of fishing season for my family. I've had some really amazing ones and some very forgettable ones, but in the end it's always been worth it to fish with family and friends for a day. I'll be on the water without fail.

only missed opening day once since I was kid. Tradition that I will keep going once I have a children. Rain, snow, s*&t, hell, or high water..I'm out there! As previously stated, it's funny to watch some of the characters out there! If the fishing is slow, at least there's entertainment!
Still have decided where I'm going yet this year. I like to try to hit different locals every year

I'd rather have someone pull my fingernails out with pliers.

I was thinking more along the lines of shoving a sharp stick in my eye.

I usually don't go. In fact, I used to specifically hit the cod boats in the late 1970's and through the mid 1980's as the boats would have a somewhat light crowd for a weekend trip.

If I go for trout, it is usually without high expectations due to the sheer volume of participants.

I'm a Monday morning man. Let the fish settle in a bit and the crowds return to work. I stay in Bergen county area usually the ramapo with a box of worms and a few spinners. My theories is the water here is a bit warmer than up north or out west streams.
No early start, sometime around 8 ish with a spiked cup of cafe.
No waders, no sense in scaring the fish. Guys make me laugh wading in the water. Most river you can cast across.
Thats my opening day.
