Both you and GW have hit it on the head. When I was busting all them fish the other morning I felt like a young boy on Christmas morning. Nothing and I mean nothing gets me jacked up like fishing, and it's the ONLY TIME when I'm not worried or concerned about something. When I'm in the zone there is absolutely nothing on my mind but me and the fish, it's my true excape from it all. It also brings me closer to my maker and makes me feel fortunate to be alive.
