However, there’s really nothing more relaxing than floating on a boat, casting out your line and once in a while experiencing the thrill of tearing into a big one!  Though, I’ve always found bluegill to be one of the toughest and funnest little fish you’ll ever reel in.  You’d swear you had an eight pound catfish on the line but the distinctive zigzagging fight of the bluegill, gives it away, long before seeing it.  Pulling those little fish out of the water and being amazed at what kind a fight a five inch long fish is capable of, seemingly defies the laws of nature.  With fish, it’s true, size does not matter. As long as you’re not skunked, that’s all that counts!

I still enjoy fishing, though I don’t get to go as often as I like, but if I can’t fish, I can draw!
