fishing

 Fishing on the sea rocks...not sure this was the type of fishing that all the literature I researched cited as one of the most common activities of the retiree. Surely, they must have been referring to fishing on those yatchs you see moored at the marina with fishing poles attached at the rear. The pictures here are better than a thousand words. After repeating this ritual again and again and again with nothing in the bucket at the end of 4 hot long hours save for the head of a medium sized fish that a barracuda had bitten the rest of the body off the hook. At the of the adventure I had lost all enthusiasm for fishing, in danger of losing a friendship and was partially dehydrated. On the walk back along the coast we did find a few small whelks. I think you should give fishing on the sea rocks a try. Perhaps your story will end with you taking your catch to sell by the tamarind tree next to the market.
