Life After Divorce

[Reporter]

We now know that not all fish are created equal and when it comes to hooking one for life, we have to discriminate in our choices. We can't just take any fish that bites.

But to really catch the kinds of fish we want, we have to have the right baits and equipment, too, though. Or else the fish will discriminate against biting our baits, too.

[Dok_Champa]

Yes fishing is like that.  AND it's also like this:  you throw in your bait, a fish bites and you know it because of the pulling of the fishing lines.  You reel in your catch and find the fish gone along w/ the baits.  Some fish are like that...

As a fisherman, don't you find that annoying.

[Reporter]

Yes, I do.

Also, many times I've  used the proper baits and would catch something big. I got excited each time and would be as careful as possible reeling them in. I was expecting walleyes or steelheads or even salmons. But they proved me wrong: some were carps and some were buffalos only.

[Dok_Champa]

Fishing isn't as easy as some claims and requires luck, right timing, right moment, or as some say, "written in the stars."

[Reporter]

I don't rely on the stars as much now. I think that catching a fish is a matter of enticing it with the right bait any time.

[Dok_Champa]

Even w/ proper baits will not guarantee the desire fish.

Catch and release

[Reporter]

True. It's hard to specifically hook the right type. But if I want white bass, I wouldn't be putting out a crawler on my hook.

Even w/ proper baits will not guarantee the desire fish.

[Reporter]

That is if you just want to taste the fish first and then taste again and again...

Catch and release

When it comes the fishing, I'm an amateur so i'm going to  and I find the topic boring

[NtsesHnub]

Tell me this, my sister got divorced but her ex in laws still call me brother in law.  Out of respect I do the same for them.

[Reporter]

Once a relative is always a relative.

But you should limit your interactions with them though, NtsesHnub.

[Reporter]

If you keep referring to hooking true love with fishing, eventually you will start talking about fishing only and will have forgotten that fishing is just a reference.

They attended the same church as my parents so it's kinda hard to avoid them   They're nice people. 

[Dok_Champa]

Fishing on land or in the water, I'm still an amateur and I never really like fishing.   Real fishing now, I could count the number of times on one hand.  However, later in life if I have nothing to do, fishing can be a wonderful way to relax. I don't mind.
