“Just show me the tackle and give me some bait. Then watch me go fishing, the rest can wait.” Fishing is one of my favorite things to do. It is catching a fish for either food or simply for fun. You can do it by yourself to enjoy the peace and quiet or fish with others to pass the time. Many people think fishing is an old man's sport but I think of it differently. It has helped to form my values, most importantly patience. Since the start of time, humans have been catching fish. The sport has, in many ways, evolved hugely, and yet in many aspects has stayed exactly the same. To me fishing is unique and I find it can be anything from relaxing to a very intense experience. My first fishing experience was with my dad and my older brother when I was seven. Driving up to the creek, walking through the muddy path on the twisting dirt road. I could feel my dad’s pride …show more content…
I could not believe I caught a fish all by myself! His proud chuckle made me proud too. I remember posing to take the picture with my dad holding my prized first fish because I did not want to touch it. The fish was humongous or so I thought until I saw the one my brother caught ten minutes later. There is something about catching fish that just gives me such an adrenaline rush and it becomes an addictive experience that I just want to try again and again. Reeling in the line and watching the fish come closer and closer makes me so excited. The good thing about fishing is that most of what you catch you can eat. For me, the joy of fishing is not remembered by the size of the fish or even by the picture we took at the end of the day. I will forever connect the joy of that day to the joy of every other fishing trip. Whether the fishing took place 7 years ago or 7 weeks ago the joy is and will still be the same. That joy is what makes the fishing so

Around noon, my family and I head out to the dock. We each grab a fishing rod,
My friend had invited me along with him and his family to the ocean. It was vacation for the family, but for him and me it was the beginning of a week of serious business. We had an obsessive hobby to pursue. As avid and long-term freshwater fisherman, we were thrilled by the thought of catching those large and exotic saltwater fish we had seen on television a billion times before. Yet little did we expect there to be such vast differences between our freshwater fishing and the saltwater fishing, which we were about to pursue. We learned through trial and much error that in order to have a successful saltwater fishing experience we had to make adjustments to all the freshwater tackle, tactics, and gear we knew.

“Fishing is love, fishing is life,” says fourteen year old Nathan Andrew Kim, a ninth grader at Palo Alto High School. To Kim, fishing is more than just tossing the line into water; it is a sport that requires the hands of a master who knows exactly how and where to cast the line. There’s nothing he likes more than feeling the tug and hearing the splash. Fishing, delicate yet demanding, needs the great skill of a committed person, and it has evolved into Kim’s lifelong passion.
Fishing is great because it is something to do if you are not doing anything and just sitting around.

Catch-and-Release Fishing Fishing has been a way of life since cavemen days. It has provided meals for many families, but it has also provided a past time, through catch and release fishing. Catch and release fishing is a type of fishing where you catch a fish and release it quickly in order to not harm the fish. It requires practices such has choosing the right tackle, depth of water, tools to unhook a fish and releasing techniques. If done properly, it does not harm the fish.
My position on this is that, nobody should be able to abolish such a fun sport and even a fun family thing to do. It teaches you patience, and even how to be skilled in holding a fish. In the sense fish cannot even feel the pain when they are caught, I feel as if fish were put here to be caught and even be ate by humans. It has been proven that most fish that are caught, if they are bleeding, then they will die, but if they do not bleed only about one-third of fish will die, after being released.
The thing I love most about fishing is that you're constantly learning and creating new skills. Some skills that I have learned over the years is knowing what baits to use given the type of structure that the lake has. An example of this would be using a topwater bait when you cast onto weed mats. You would use a topwater bait because you could swim the bait right over the weeds without having to worry about your hooks catching onto them. Also an example of this would be fishing in a spot where there is rocks on the bottom.
I will never forget the gigantic smile that was on my dad's face as I reeled in my tiny first sunfish. Even though we only fished for a couple of hours he taught me how important it is to be patient and that not everything comes easy and at the snap of a finger in
