Thunderstorm between you and the dock...

what do you do?

Ask yourself why you didn't pay better attention

.....

Seriously...take shelter close to the hill as you can get, preferably in a small creek or bay....lay all the rods, nets and antennas down....get to the bottom of the boat and ride it out.....

Offshore is different...can't comment on that much, anything over 8 foot is offshore to me

If I only had a dollar for every time I have asked myself that one...

All depends on what the rest of the area looks like. If there is only a storm between me and land, I keep fishing, while watching which direction it's going. If it moves toward me, I will either run to one side or the other, or if I feel the need, run strait through it with everything laying down . As a rule, I usually go in before they can catch me out away from the landing

What Wevans said. I usually skirt the storms.
