I keep wanting to fish. I’ve barely ever fished in my life! Certainly not enough to say I have experience or anything. I guess the idea of fresh fish to eat is just really enticing, and the whole thing seems pretty therapeutic, as far as activities go. Also, I guess I value the money-saving aspect of it. Not really sure how much fish I’d need to catch and in what way for things to be worth it… Depends on my investment in materials as well, but whatever.

A fishing license where I intend to fish is €8 a year. No clue if that’s expensive, in relative terms, but it sounds very cheap.

    Fishing is pretty great. It doesn’t have to be expensive or fancy either though it certainly can be. You have to also remember it is called fishing and not catching for a reason. Enjoying the activity and being out there itself is more important than the result sometimes. Keeping with it will earn you the rewards over time. Not all of them will be fish.

      Yeah, that seems to be the single most common piece of advice for aspiring fishermen out there. I’ll have to try it out one of these days!
