Bingo. Dat's the Ding My friend Sonny from Nigeria used to say.

On whatever (legal) grounds you choose. Be responsible, respectful, and ENJOY it.

Competition can be fun in the right framework. Competition against the fish, competition against your fellow anglers, competition against the elements. I enjoy some competition (really enjoyed competition darts). Competition in the right framework can add to the experience but competition or no competition you gotta enjoy what you are doing. Get exhilarated, get humbled, get your juices flowing, getting schooled by the fish, or schooling the fish. Regardless of the style or circumstances you are fishing, Get to Enjoy It! On whatever ground you choose.
