When I was young I fished to have fun with my friends out on the water for the day! Now at 65 I fish for solitude and to forget about the stresses of life and become one with nature again. I can really relate to what Pierre had to say in his reply.
And I also love tying my own flies and catching a fish with them is so rewarding. For me this season hasn't been great so far but I have too many balls in the air right now. Hopefully the fishing will pick up in the fall! Thanks for all your inputs it was nice reading them all!
Shucks Ann, you don't look a day over 50. See it's true, fishing keeps you young.
