>>2437637Fly fishing is about wasting your time convincing fish they want to eat. You can see the fish you want. The fish can see your fly. The fish aren't hungry and don't want to eat. The fish are horny and want to cooooom then die. So you spend an hour trying to fish that eating one last fly is better then cooooooooming.
Regular fishing is about sitting around drinking and eating, waiting for the to eat your lure. You could be doing it from a dock, looking like an eye sore and making the place unsafe for swimming, or you could be doing it from a boat, looking like an eye sore and dumping out as much pollution as you can get away with.
