This somes up my feelings pretty well. Long nights of fishing are a more positive way to spend your time than being up all night doing things you shouldn't be doing. I've done too many of those things.
I had my drag set too tight the other night when I got slammed. Fish yanked me so hard I lost my balance for a sec and almost fell in off the ledge.. Would have been ugly. I find experiences like that humbling but they make me feel very alive after a long day of sitting behind a desk and around conference tables.
I also enjoy the comradery of fishing with friends but enjoy the feeling of solitude fishing by myself just as much. Can't really think of anything better than feeling the pull of a good bass while you're out on the new moon alone in the dark.
