Fishing is a prehistoric practice. Our ancestors fished in lakes, rivers, ponds and even oceans, basically, wherever it was possible. Fishing is intertwined with the development of the human species. In eastern Africa, fragments of fish were discovered with the remains of early humanoids near a shallow lake. The remains date back over 500,000 years. From that period forward there is evidence that fish have been used for food and a wide range of other needs.
There are many kinds of fishing, ranging from subsistence fishing for survival; to recreational fishing for pleasure, competition or just for occasionally feeding ones family; to commercial fishing for profit.
Studies have confirmed the connection between being in nature and health improvement. Fishing helps relieve stress, lower blood pressure and strengthen the immune system.
Fishing can foster intergenerational relationships when grandparents and parents teach children how to fish.
Of course, one of the best parts of fishing is eating, whether cooked or not! At our Japanese Food pawty last week we sampled sushi. This week we're cooking. To this day, in Wisconsin, Friday night means Fish Fry, with Perch, Walleye, Blue gill and Cod topping the list. Grilling over an open fire is another great option.
This week at #nipclub we're going recreational fishing. Pick your pleasure. Whether you enjoy noodling for catfish in the shallows of the Midwest and South, to angling with rod & reel in your favorite lake or fishing hole, to fly fishing (a different type of angling) along your favorite river or stream, we've got the gear for you. Just let @realfakegator or @kittehboi know what you need.
