[QUOTE="MSA, post: 31429, member: 193"] Fishing has interested people since the dawn of our ability to make tools. To put some meat on a hook and send it into a place where we can not go, and then bring a creature back from that unknown place excites us. That is why I fish, I have obsessed about it since I was old enough to use my thumbs, since I learned to stomp on a bream and use it as bait to lure giant snapping turtles closer to shore to see what they really looked like, since that first fish got away I didn't get to see that kept me up all night wondering what it was. Kim Fundingsland asked me why I do what I do in an interview one time, I told him I don't have an answer for that, but I have been asked that my entire life...why? which I believe inspired him to write the article "a question of why" [URL]http://www.minotdailynews.com/page/content.detail/id/520339/COLUMN--A-fair-question.html[/URL] so, I can't really say for sure what got me hooked, I can barely give a logical answer as to why I fish, but I do know it was an obsession before I could ride a bike.
