Every time I come back from fishing and I am washing my boat down neighbors and friends always ask the same condescending question, "you catch anything good, any keepers"? Some people just don't get it. Paired with alcohol, fishing for me is a detached form of escape. With an ever-increasing population slowly encroaching on my world of skateboarding and surfing I have slowly evolved into a life on the water. I can run out to the kelp beds and get lost in time.  Time spent drifting with the tides watching how pods of dolphins hunt and pelicans glide on the rolling swells. I don't care if I catch a 12 inch fish or a 28 inch fish, its all about the solitude and the escape. Getting a fish for dinner is just a rare added bonus.
