Mike,
100 days on the water is what I would estimate, for myself. Average 2 mornings per week, fishing 5 hours each morning. In the Summer, when it is light out until 9PM there is the option of going out after work. I keep my kayak locked on my truck and all my gear in the back seat, so all I usually need to grab are my fishing rods. When I am done, straight to work, rinse my reels, clean myself up. The lack of time that I can fish was the main reason my boat stayed in the driveway and the kayak took over.
Time on the water is definately a big factor in success. The "fishing" that is done off the water also contributes alot. Respooling fresh line, reel maintenence, reading anything fish related, studying current trends and reports via the internet, tides, water temps and expected weather. I usually go fishing with a flexible gameplan.
