    I’m a world class nerd and reclusive millennial but fishing and going to the river is the one outdoor destination that actually purge my stress levels.

      I am 200% there with you. I got crazy into fishing because of that kind of experience. It’s pure calm ontop of doing the honestly incredibly nerdy thing of trying to match lures to conditions like water color, temperature, time of day, season, etc. And at the end of the day, even if you caught nothing, you had the incredible experience of being able to sit, relaxe, and breathe.

        Haaaa yeah the lure thing… I do the same across the board xD I also try to catch all possible fish species at every location with all possible techniques. It’s very very soothing.
