yes we like the shoreline and piers and actually she is very physically fit as she walks 1 to 2 miles every morning and works in her gardens for 2 hours a few times a week and rids a stationary bike about 5 miles a day. lol but yes we will be safe and shes more excite to go fishing than any of the other things as she prefers to be more active then sitting around. most of her friends find it hard to believe she is 92. but we will see how it goes and i will work on finding a nice shady flat ground place we can try the first fishing trip and in 30 min if it is to much for her we will stop. but shes an outdoors lady. hates being inside.

@debiobrien I know I don't need to remind you. But you know me just speak from my heart. Make sure that when you do take her fishing, that you have told more than one person where/what time you are going and how long you'll be. Make sure you have a phone with you that can get reception where you'll be. If something happens, you know that the rescuer in you would never forgive yourself if you couldn't communicate with someone. I'm glad that your mom is ready to get out there. Like you said, early in the morning would be nice because the fish probably will be a little bit closer to the surface before the heat comes, if my memory serves me correctly from my fishing days.
