I don't understand angling. One sits all day (usually completely alone) - in all sorts of weathers - and ... little happens.
But I understand it's one of the biggest participant sports in the country. Is it a form of meditation? A chance to get away from the world?
I have never understood its appeal. In Canada a lot of fisherman also engage in ice fishing over the winter on frozen lakes and rivers.
