This gives me pause to ponder just another reason I'm glad I graduated to the healthier side of fishing (for me). Rather than raise the blood pressure (which I was just
diagnosed with along with GERD), my kayak is less stressful and I'm able to calm down faster from encounters while paddling along draggin' my crank bait. Of course,
the blood pressure comes up a little when the pole bends, but it's the good kind of stress. Right?
