I don't fish. Mainly because it doesn't interest me a lot. I kayak regularly, so I see a lot of fish. Last time the carp were spawning I think. There were lots of large fish in the shallows splashing around. In a week I'm going on a 4 day trip to the BWCA for a college summer class. I will probably fish up there. I like eating specific fish. As long as its not too fishy tasting. Last nice I ate some awesome tuna steak sandwiches.
