I'm not sure if it's my age (23) or if there are less sportsmen around, but whenever I mention that I fish often, people can't believe it. They are amazed that I go out on a boat every weekend and fish, and that I go out all night to wade out and fish the beach. My friends can't believe that I'd rather go out fishing than stalking girls at a bar, and the girls I go out with can't believe I take pride in waking up at 4:30 to go after fish. Oh yeah, and they also can't believe I'd rather go and hang out at an MSBA meeting than go out and have some drinks.

But what is it that most people do? Go to bars. Sit around and drink. Watch TV. We're out there experiencing nature and chasing the fish of our dreams. We love what we do enough to go all out. Most people can't say that.
