I’m looking for wadable flats or backwater that I could fish without a guide. I will probably hire a guide for a day or two but would like to fish solo as well.

What aircraft did you learn to fly in?
I learned to fly in a 1946 Talyorcraft. At the time I hated that plane. It had separate brake pedals from the rudder pedals, but that didn’t matter because the brakes didn’t work. When ever I flew it solo I had to wrap a tie down chain to the tail wheel when I propped it (I know dangerous as hell). My flight instructor weighed about 75 lbs more than me, so it was a whole different flight when he was in or out of the plane. No radio, just a handheld, and of the instruments it had I think the airspeed and altimeter were the only ones that worked correctly.
I hated that plane at the time, now I wish I had one 
I am curious what some of the pilots in here learned in, and what they ended up doing as pilots later on.
