I thought the point of fishing was for the human to spear/catch the fish...not the other way around
"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"

My brother was almost killed several years ago from a Manta ray that jumped out of the water as they were cruising by in the boat. Hit him in the head, knocked him uncouncious and almost out of the boat. He was literally hanging in the boat by his shoestring which had caught on a cleat. He had a concussion and spent a couple of nights in the hospital. Fish are mean. That's why we should eat more of them!
