Dayum boi - I hate saltwater fishing. More of a freshwater fly fishing guy. Sure, you wont catch big fish, but the journey and the reward is worth it. I have a hard enough time taking a fish's life when I mangle up a barbless hook, and I don't really hunt. Im kind of a big wussie.
My dad taught me how to fly fish before it became mainstream in the late 2000s and 2010s from clout chasing $)#^T*)@!#*%^&)_@!#&*%^_)(@#&)^%(@#& Californians and other posers and fakes from big cities trying to look cool. Its really fun meeting people down south that think I'm sort of tourist when then I troll them about how I fished in Yukon and BC and remotes part of Alaska and how much better than I am than them. They get upset. Small peepee energy. They can go eff themselves. Yeah, I am full of myself. I am Icarus incarnate.
But for saltwater fishing I'm fishing to eat, not sport. Life is funner that way. Salmon be tasty, dog.
Dad, if you ever read this, I love ya so much
