Fishing is Fun

I think the prediction of Fishing Reminder yesterday, 23 June 2017 was correct by rating 4 the day 4 stars out of 4. I was able to catch a total of 17 fish. However, only two of them were big which I already fried.

My co-employees who are not into fishing often wonder why I have to trek 30 minutes under a searing sun just to catch fish. Added to this are the sunburn and some bruises that I got.

Sometimes, I wonder too. But, if you are in the water catching those eluded fish, you get this feeling of euphoria especially when you caught them.

Some people may not know it but it is not catching the fish per se that fishing is fun. It is that moment in time when your bait was being bitten my the fish, especially on those days when they are in the eating mode. The moment of waiting and then suddenly the biting of your bait make your day. Of course, catching the fish is the ultimate prize!

Catching fish is not easy. The waiting time often seems endless and you want to give up especially when you are standing up under a boiling sun and salty wind. Spend those moments reminiscing the past, planning for the future, and thanking and smiling for today. While the rest of the world are sleeping, working, and browsing on the internet, mobile phones, and tablets, you are there catching fish enjoying your leisure time.

You may not any catch fish for the day but the hope of catching one tomorrow is there. Happy fishing everyone!
