I thought I might add a post about a new kind of fishing that I'm starting to practice that guarantees the absolute safety of the fish.
I've decided that I will retain all the usual tackle that is required for the sport, but I will no longer use hooks on the end of line, and will therefore cease to catch any fish at all despite the fact that I will be paying my annual rod licence and taking regular trips out to the bank with just as much enthusiasm as I ever had.
As far as 'losing' or 'retaining' the angling 'buzz', I will still experience the joy and pleasureof being out in the open and sitting on riverbank, and I will still be able to interact with and enjoy nature in the wild, but the only difference now is that I will no longer be catching any fish. I wil still use a float, and will still use bait (although, I will not use maggots), and will still, therefore, experience the thrill of se my float dip in the water, which is the one of themain things that I like about angling, anyway...
I would be only too happy to discuss this further with anyone who might share my interest, and would be interested to hearthe views of others on this slight change of emphasis and practiceon my part.
