It is a sport that I can share and enjoy with friends and family. I like to be outside in the sunshine and fresh air. Fishing gives me that opportunity. I like the 'thrill of the chase' involved in trying to successfully find the fish. He is an invisible quarry and just being able to locate him is often a very difficult task.
Fishing is an outlet for the stresses of everyday life.
It allows you to take your mind off your problems and worries. It relaxes and sooths the body and the soul. My old tackle box has been on many a fishing trip, you betcha'. Over the many years of my life, it has held the tools of the sport, as wells as the dreams of each new day that was to come. Today, my old tackle box also holds many memories .
