WHY YOU ASK- WELL LET ME TELL YOU
A longtime friend and avid fly fisherman recently asked, as I was showing him pictures of some recent warm water fish, ?With all of the trout fishing near you, why do you spend so much time on local ponds??
I actually think “I like it” is the better answer. Explaining why you like it is somewhat akin to explaining a joke. You either get it in the place, or it’s not funny.
Yeah, I know that millions of words have been written about why we fish (for anything, with any style of fishing) but it still all boils down to “because I like it.”
Thanks for writing this article! I can relate to this story. Good job.
