I typically fish alone. Canoe trips would be different. I've only ever fly fished on a canoe trip on the upper Delaware River. That was a family outing/event. It was Father's Day weekend and obviously the highlight for me was helping my father and uncle. I was more lucky than good, but everything worked, and it was many years ago.
The only other canoe trips that I ever caught trout on were the upper Greenbrier and South Branch Rivers in West Virginia. My friend wanted to spin fish and I did that most of the time as well and always when we were in the canoe. It is just easier that way.
Way back in the 1980's when I lived in Bucks County, PA, one of my roommates was a guide on the Delaware River(New Hope, PA-Trenton, NJ). We went fishing a lot when he didn't have have paying customers, which he typically did have during the shad and striped bass spawning runs.
We were exploring and experimenting with new locations and tackle/techniques. Sometimes we had success and sometimes we didn't. I knew what I signed up for. I was never going to complain about anything.
