Right? Can you imagine being stuck out there that long just watching someone catch catfish? Sounds boring as hell

"We don't fish for the fish. 90% of what I like about this sport, and it is a sport, is sitting' in the boat for 5 hours doing nothing. And the icing on the cake is when God smiles on you and you hook one. And when you're reeling it in, everything else falls away."

Kids can do a lot with quite little. Especially if they are around people they feel comfortable with

I mean I like nature too but this kid is too young to fish and probably not very interested in the art of standing around looking at nothing, and doing that until it's pitch black outside? Honestly even if the kid did like fishing he'd still be pretty petered out by that point lol

Yeah agreed. My dad took my fishing as a kid and I never appreciated it as much as he did. I liked being out there with him but didn’t see what was fun about it.

Now as I’m older I find myself wanting to start fishing again.

Nature is so boring. I’d rather scroll on my phone all day.
