other hobbies

What other hobbies do fisherman have, if any. I have been wondering about what others do that frequent these forums so thought I would ask. I have fished ever since I was a small child and am now 57, so this has been a life long love of mine but I do have other intrests. I started running about 18 years ago just for exercise and to keep the ticker in shape and one thing led to another and now I've run around 20 half marathons and 8 full marathons and that also has become a life style change for me. I'm not very fast and it's probably not pretty but some of the benefits help out when I make some long treks back in to get to some of my far off favorite fishing spots. The wife and I travel a little also our daughter is a missionary in Papua New Guinea and we have been fortunate to visit her and the grandkids and the son in law for about a month,( there are no crappie in PNG ). Ok so what you guys got ?

:welcomefrom Ne. glasseyes, I like to tinker around and make different things. I do a lot of wood working and making different things for Christmas and other holidays, to give away. EB

I grill out about twice a week, year round. Charcoal of course, no gas grill for me. So I guess cooking out might be considered a hobby. I like to collect and, shoot guns for sure. I love my Hockey. That is not going to well for me so far this year.

Your definition of Hockey and mine must be different.:yikes

I build custom fishing rods for people.

I make my own jigs and it is relaxing, I have often thought about building a rod, seems like it might be rather expensive to do , is it ?
