There are those that get the thrill from "seeing" the fish strike, and those that get it from "feeling" the fish strike, and then there are those few that fish for the sheer joy of the action of fishing, for the sights and sounds of the world around us while we are fishing (sometimes right at out feet)!
You can tell who these unique individuals are by how they describe fishing. Not that they caught a fish, but with much more zeal and emotion, they will describe (in detail) the time of day/night, the weather conditions, the water conditions, what(if any) animals were around, and EXACTLY how many fish they caught and what they weighed and/or measuered!
Everyone else will just say "I caught a fish."
