There have been several nice days so far this year, just not on a weekend. So what more could I possibly ask for? This is the perfect day to hit the links for the first time this year.<\/p>\n<p>But I didn&#8217;t. Instead, my boys and I hopped in the car this morning and made our way to the bait shop. We grabbed a couple dozen night crawlers, headed out to a nice lake and proceeded to spend the next few hours casting our lines into the water hoping to reel in a good fish tale.<\/p>\n<p>But I have to ask myself&#8230;is there something wrong with me? What I mean is, I have waited all winter for a weekend day like this one to get out on the golf course. And when this day finally comes&#8230;I go fishing instead! I guess the easiest way for me to explain it is that I have a connection with fishing that I don&#8217;t have with golf.<\/p>\n<p>You see, I began playing golf only about thirteen or fourteen years ago. But fishing? I can&#8217;t even remember when I began going. Despite living practically around the corner from a golf course as a kid, it never really called out to me as much as the lake hidden back in the woods across the street. I can&#8217;t begin to explain how many days my friends and I would spend back there, for hours on end, pulling out bass, trout, perch and catfish. It&#8217;s a connection with my childhood that I don&#8217;t want to lose. Golf will never have that connection for me since I took it up much later in life. <\/p>\n<p>But fishing isn&#8217;t something I get to do very often anymore due to hectic schedules, kids playing sports and my newer summertime love&#8230;golf. But every once in a while, I have to take the time to get back to my childhood. And then, golf has to take a backseat. It helps that my kids enjoy it also. They were as excited to go as I was. <\/p>\n<p>People ask me how I can fish for hours, possibly not catch a thing, and not get bored out of my mind. The answer is, I have no idea. The connection with my youth? The potential to catch &#8220;the big one?&#8221; Just spending time outside, relaxing at a nice place on a nice day? Maybe it&#8217;s a little bit of all those things. But, in some ways, I can equate fishing to golf. But none better than this&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>While sitting on some rocks on the side of the lake, a ranger (we were at a state park) comes by and asks my boys how they were doing. My oldest responded &#8220;OK, we haven&#8217;t caught anything yet.&#8221; The ranger then responds &#8220;That&#8217;s OK. It&#8217;s a nice day and you&#8217;re outside. What&#8217;s better than that?&#8221; After the brutal winter we have just come through&#8230;he&#8217;s right&#8230;what could be better?<\/p>\n<p>Swing (or cast) &#8217;til you&#8217;re happy!<\/span><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mid- to upper 60&#8217;s, a bit of a breeze, only a few clouds to be seen&#8230;this is fantastic golfing weather!
