Fly Fishing

I've recently gotten the opportunity to try my hand at fly fishing over the last month, and its really been quite enjoyable. There's just something so great about getting away from civilization, standing a nice shallow lake, and casting a fly rod over and over and over again. It's very freeing, and I it think allows everyone to get back to being a raw human being. It's you vs. the lake, vs. the fish, and that is how you will get your food today, and that is how our ancestors got their food many many years ago. So this past weekend I caught my very first keeper fish with a fly rod. It was pretty freaking cool.
