Since crappie boy thinks I post too many pix of my fish and don't give way to there locations of pursuit. This got me thinking, everyone goes through stages in there fishing and hunting careers. I define the stages as follows:

1. Man I want to catch a fish. At this point pursuit is just about getting into fish

2. I want to catch a lot of fish. After you have figured out how to catch a fish, catching more is the goal.

3. After you have caught many fish, you will shift to wanting to catch a big fish. Bigger the better.

4. After you have learned to catch fish, and you are catching fish regularly, you shift to wanting to catch the elusive fish or hard to catch. For some this may mean learning a new method of fishing or technique.

5. It no matters to you that you catch fish at all, but more about the fishing and not the catching.


I personally am between stage 4/5. I enjoy watching someone else catch a fish just as much as if I caught it myself. However, I am still in the pursuit of a 3lber lol.

What stage of fishing fits you right now!!
