This is Fishing

[Alan]

When the fish aren't biting. He did this for two days and didn't catch a thing.

But then catching a fish is only a small part of 'wetting a line' (which is quite a good description of the activity)

That put a smile on my face

Some people have the mistaken view that 'fishing' actually involves catching fish. Catching anything is a by-product, an added bonus, but not the main point of 'fishing'.

So true Charles

Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after.

Henry David Thoreau

Fishing is boring, unless you catch an actual fish, and then it is disgusting.

David Barry

My eldest son is an avid fisherman and would happily do this, fish or no fish. We took him to our local dam when he was about 5, explained that sometimes you never catch a fish and he had to be patient etc, threw his line in and 30 sec later pulled in this really tiny little bream - he was hooked the bream released.

I was going to say 'proudly sponsored by McDonalds'. It's not about if you catch a fish, it's about being there. It can also be a good social time with people passing to see if you've caught anything and people taking your photo to put on a forum and stating you haven't caught a fish for 2 days .... as well as hanging out with mates (if you have any) but that bloke above doesn't otherwise they would be there
