Game Fishing - It Takes A Reel Man

Unfortunately, if all men were true sportsmen, we wouldn't need laws and regulations for hunting and fishing. But then, we wouldn't need most of the laws that govern human behavior.

When it comes to fishing, the true sportsman loves nature, has a wholesome respect for the rules of safety, and considers others as well as himself. He's the shining example you hope your kids will follow as they become adults.

Serious game fishing is not just something to do. It reflects a love for fishing and for the natural world, whether in a forest, on a mountain side, or from the deck of a deep sea fishing vessel.

The sportsman-like game fisherman seeks the challenge of subtle strategic maneuvers, lightening reaction speed to the unexpected tug of the line, the whir of the reel, and the thrill of fin-to-reel combat. He's not in it for the thrill of slaughter or material rewards. The game fisherman loves the joy of challenge and the satisfaction of a well-fought battle with a valiant opponent, the humble fish.

One of the most popular game fishing pursuits is offshore game fishing. Anglers seek the strong, big lean fish like marlin, swordfish, or sailfish. This game is captured from the sea, and the romance of offshore game fishing is irresistible. Some sports fishers enter competitions to win the prize for the biggest catch. Some keep their catch as a trophy they can enjoy forever, remembering the glory of the ocean victory for years.

Offshore game fishing is an ambitious undertaking. It usually calls for a strong hardy fishing boat, ranging from 30 to 50 feet in length, and providing sleeping quarters for long ocean trips.

Reeling in the game fish is a true challenge. The prey is big, strong, and fast. It takes equal strength and true persistence to stay with the battle as your finned opponent pulls away from the boat. Maintaining a constant tension on the fishing line requires experience and skill in addition to patience and perseverance.

Offshore game fishing calls for a special type of fisherman. Beyond the challenge of catching and landing a worthy game fish, offshore game fishing involves close communication with the mother of nature, the sea. It brings pure, clean air and quiet solitude. It takes a man back in time to the days when Ahab searched fearlessly for his nemesis.

Offshore game fishing recalls the days of sailing ships, heroism, and glory found today only in the imagination. The offshore game fisherman reminds us of the valiant swashbuckling adventurer and warms the heart with respect for the rules of honor and fairness that are often forgotten in today's mean streets.
