Well, my parents only had one kid and my dad didn't get his " little boy" He got me. So growing up, I fished spring and summer and hunted in the fall and winter. I love being outside with God's creatures. Just in the last 5 years I started fishing heavily (daily) since my father passed away. It's a way for me to enjoy myself , relax, and remember my dad. Plus if I didn't use the skills he tought me I'd lose them. Thanks for asking
