Can Fishing Bring Out the Worst in You?

I'm going to quote myself, because that's what #^&#^&#^&#^&s do.

I think, however, I'm on to something with the Freudian crap.

Sex is important (until after you have teenagers, anyways). We are wired to reproduce at all costs (which explains marriage, and expensive restaurants). Passing on genes (i.e.sex) drives animal behavior. We are all animals (except Sauerkraut who is related to mold). Animals compete for mates, and try to collect and keep as many mates as they can find. This means they are wired to challenge for, fight for, and defend what is important. It is also why it sucks to wear glasses, but that is another story.

Well for a lot of us, fishing is important. The more important it becomes, the more likely it will trigger the same anti-social behavior that animals use to defend their sexual interests. Which, of course, means the best approach is to get laid before going fishing. Barring that, it is best to fish alone. I hope you find this helpful.

Next week we will discuss expensive reels and penis envy.

Have the terms "fishing" and "to fish" Become a euphonism in this thread for sex? Just asking because " it is best to fish alone" cracks me up.
On the serious side, grown parents have been known to fight at little league games. I really don't understand this level of agressive behaviour in a pastime. And the heated arguements over the best gear. Good God get a friggin grip.
But sex makes you do strange things...especially when you substitute something else for sex.
