If you are not enjoying your fishing do something else or go home. It is supposed to be fun!
That which catches the fish I'm after. I'm happy trolling, fishing static deadbaits or lure fishing. Whatever it takes.
I have a passive interest in aviation, railways and history. I enjoy keeping up to date with current affairs and I find politics quite interesting.
That I have given up carp fishing! The reason is this. I enjoyed my years of carp fishing ( had my first 20 in the early 1980s ), but with my time more restricted I decided that pike fishing was my true vocation.
