Fishing is a bad habit within itself. We do it because it makes us feel good, we do it because we need to not because we want to. We spend crazy money on it, we lose sleep over it, we miss important events because of it. And we justify it just any other junky does. But I ain't going to rehab

There are books about how fishing is one of the most highly addictive activities you can engage in. You get that blitz, that one good fish early on, then you chase that high like a junkie. But the worst part is that the highs are not consistent and predictable like a drug, they come in waves (pun intended) which makes it that more addictive....

socially detaching myself from anything that is not fishing during the season...

I have friends and family that have just stopped inviting me to any sort of weekend/evening gathering because they know I wont be there... Its actually quite sad in a way. We always seem to have this never-ending nagging feeling that we are going to miss out on something epic at the shore so we are there every second we can be

How about accidentally calling people really early in the morning that don't fish. I'll just dial a number thinking its about the middle of the day and realize after the second ring its 8am. whoops

something clever and related to fishing
