Jackie Chan “Dragon Fist” followed by Chuck Norris “An eye for an eye”. I know what I’m doing this evening.

We're going to watch the latest episode of Last of Us.

Have I ever shared my secret fishing technique... Probably not here.

It's built on simplicity. A cane pole works best. A bobber is important. Just enough weight on the line to keep the bobber from drifting too much... Find a comfortable spot on the shore. A nice tree to lean on is useful. A hat can be nice, especially if it's got enough of a brim to cover your face. Cast your line into the water. Lean back, tilt your hat down (if you wore one), and relax. If anyone tries to disturb you, whisper "I'm fishing... go away quietly."

It's very important that you not put a hook on the line; you might actually catch something and disturb your nap and chill time.

The big issue occupying our greatest minds here in the UK today seems to be the fishing industry. Hear me out here, though; it was a mistake to turn fishing into an industry in the first place. Fishing should be something to do when you don't want to do anything else, and that's becoming more important. Even in a modern technological society, from time to time a man should be given the opportunity to pit his wits against those of a fish and lose.

Have you ever watched a show called the Deadliest Catch? Crazy dangerous work!

In contrast, we have three lakes/ponds. One naturally stocked, full of bluegill, bass, and other critters. The lakes are stocked with bass and catfish respectively. I grew up literally able to throw an un-baited hook in the water and catch a fish in a matter of seconds/minutes. Cheating I know, and it ruined conventional freshwater fishing for me. I do like crappie fishing in a fast current, however.
Open saltwater fishing is Fun! Boring until you hook on, but Fun when you do.

Now, my favourite is mackerel. They practically fall over themselves to bite, and they taste amazing
