WISHING I WAS FISHING

The charm of fishing resides in the pursuit of what's elusive but attainable and spending lots of money getting (or not) something that's for free. There's a thin line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot, but for most people it's not about the catch, they just want to be somewhere quiet relaxing, after all a bad day fishing beats a good day at work.
