I am a fisher WOMAN, yeah me! I was 29 again in June. I LOVE the outside. I started fishing in 1980 when my husband purchased a license for me. I fished part-time with him until 2003 when he passed away and from there I went on my own. For me, the most enjoyable thing about fishing is the anticipation of the catch, when the trap or net is being hauled over the gunwale. There is no job comparable to fishing, especially on a beautiful calm day when the catch is good. I hope you enjoy my fish or lobster; it was caught with your enjoyment in mind.
