Commercial fishing is a billion-dollar industry that supplies millions of jobs to people around the world. There’s no denying that fishing often involves adverse conditions, which have fishermen spending hours out on the water and sometimes facing difficult weather conditions. But, for many people, this is their job, and they must work hard in order to sell their catch to local markets and restaurants.
It seems like these two men have customers that aren’t about to shell out the big bucks. Cats, of course, love eating fish, and it seems like they’re also trying to get in on the fresh catch these men returned with. Fortunately for these cats, the men are happy to share.
Making The Most Of It
Fishing can turn into quite the arduous sport. You may be stuck out on the dock for hours while you wait for a catch. At times, the lack of activity can make you feel discouraged and you'll want to just throw in the rod. It's important that every once in a while, you put down your rod and relax your arms. Rod stands were invented for a reason! It allows you to take a break from holding onto the rod but still keep your rod dangling in the water in case something good comes along. If you don't have a rod stand, then you can run into some trouble.
Well, this guy looks like he wasn't about to let the lack of a rod stand stop him from taking a well-needed rest. So, what did he do? He created his own human stand, naturally! But that does look like quite the tiring position to keep up.
Looking For A Better Catch
Many people like to celebrate marriage with a wedding. The celebration often includes flowers, delicious food, family, and loads of dancing. But weddings are also an opportunity to express your unique self. This woman decided that she wanted to celebrate marrying the love of her life by fishing.
Perhaps they met each other while fishing and want to bring things back full circle. Whatever the reason, this woman headed straight to the water after the altar, or maybe she skipped the altar altogether. She clearly isn't one of those girls that care so much about clothes and makeup.
Why Not?
There's nothing cooler than seeing how some people rise above adversity and make the most out of a situation. While flash floods can be very dangerous if you aren't prepared, they can also make for quite the experience. This guy looks like he wasn't only prepared, but prepared to have a blast.
He stocked up on beer and made sure that he had an ample amount of bait on hand to take full advantage of the flood waters right in his yard. He almost makes the flood look fun.
Nature Always Wins
Humans often think that they can take on nature. This guy seems to have gotten himself into quite the pickle. Whatever he caught is not about to give up easily, and neither is this man. The man seems fully determined to win the fight, but he doesn't seem like he's having much luck today.
There's a reason why fishing is categorized as a sport, and that's because it's an activity that requires physical exertion, strength, muscle, and endurance. Well, we don't know what happened after this picture was taken, but we do hope, for the guy's sake, that his hard work wasn't for nothing!
