What's most important if you wanna swim in the ocean? (being at the ocean)

What's most important if you wanted to catch Marlin? (bing where marlin live)

What's most important if you wanted to pick corn (being in a corn field)

I don't care how prepared you are or how much you practice......if you set up where they ain't......you're pissing in the wind.
