I always stand and sometimes lean when I'm fishing jigs and worms.

Check these seats out. The contoured back is what sets them apart.

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]If I’m casting a lot, I use my bicycle seat; and if I need to cast into a tight pocket, I stand up just long enough to cast, and right back on the seat I go; if I cat fishing I use my full seat w/ a back on it. Also add me to the list of bad backs. So if/once it starts to hurt, I just lay down and take a short break with my knees bent. Plus I have a bottle of ibuprofen that I take with me every time I fish, either my boat or a friends.

One thing that would help the back fatigue is better shoes. Stress on the feet keeps traveling upward and really wears on the bad areas (knees and back for me).
I bet a pair of shoes like nurses wear would do wonders. Stay clear of candy striper uniforms though
A lot of the pros have tennis shoes with extra support. Even a pair of gel inserts would probably help

My back never hurts, but my feet do by the end of the day. I'm normally wearing Vans or some other skate shoes, which have Horrible support.

I'd try the gel inserts first if I were you. They're pretty cheap. I should do the same

ever since I switched to New Balance shoes, my feet and legs hurt less which also reduces back strain on my already bad back...

The pair I have now is New Balance 737...

This is a brand new pair, my second pair in the past 3 years since I loved the first so much. I walked around the local pond for a few hours Sunday with no problems...
