If you read between the lines of what the more experienced (older?) anglers on here write then you see their more philosophical attitude coming out. They've done it all before, experienced the highs and the lows and have learnt to accept what the day brings to them and enjoy it for the pure joy of going out fishing. You still would like to catch that big fish of your dreams and you will try your damndest to do so but you prefer the dream to the enormous effort needed to do so.
Is it idleness? I prefer to think its the fact that you have learned to enjoy your fishing and lost some of the competitive attitude you once had. Its funny how the swims nearest the car park become more attractive when you get older as well!
