John,
This one is for you as I can totally relate to your job situation. I was laid off from my job of several years last June and spent the summer job hunting. Everyone knows the market is tough but the one thing that kept me same was fishing.
The hours I spent on the water (after interviewing, etc) were amazing to reduce the stress i was feeling. All my friends were a bit jealous that I had an aoopintement with "Dr. Summeroff".
It wasnt all fun and games by any means but here is one sample of the many fatties caught last summer. Of all the years I have been fishing, it was a rare thing to break the 30# mark but between July and Sept. I did it several times a week.
This one isnt a 30# but its close.......
Good luck on the job search.
