Fishing

My travel buddies used to bring us to go fishing during summer trip. A simple yet difficult-to-master pastime that gives us a more jolly experience.

Imagine drawing a line using the softest pencil you could find - I guess that would be a 6B or 10B. Now imagine the nearly invisible line to be cast into the sea or river. Lighter than you're thinking - all fishing lines are invisible but palpable. Stay still and feel for the thrill. You can't see it but you can feel it: the thrill of a fish bite.

I don't get hooked on the hobby of fishing but often enjoy the way I can connect with nature on a boat or canoe.

Calm water. Calm mind. Calm space watching wildlife. That much is the reason good enough for me to go fishing.
