To me , fishing has to enhance your life. It can't be your whole life forever.
My situation is such that I only get the one night for sure a week and maybe one more every other week. Between work and the people in my life who don't fish , that's all there is time for. I am glad though that we fish every Friday. Tired , sore , bad weather , that one day , we fish. There are times where I wish I could go every day. I do agree though that if all you do is fish , every single day , you will burn out and tire of it. Even when I was going 4 days a week , I really looked forward to seeing the other people there and that sort of comradery thing. If it weren't for that being part of the scene , I don't think I'd have gone as often.
I can honestly say though that now , i wish i could go more. Not every day but just a little more. I would like to start going 2 days a week for sure then add the special occasions. Its unlikely I will be able to work out a schedule that allows 2 days a week , every week but its something to hope for.
I think fishing with new people helps get you psyched too. I really look forward to Tim and Charlie coming up for the weekends at the Ditch. I also liked going an extra day in the morning before work with Fishpart. You couldn't do it every weekend or every morning but from time to time , it was great to be able to go the extra times.

So I guess each persons situation is different. If you can only go now and then , you crave more time on the water. If you are going all the time , you start to wonder about what other things in life you are missing out on.

Good topic , #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&. I know what you mean.
