Reading all this about fishing unexpectedly, I liked it more than all those friends' stories who often go fishing just for the sake of it. In reality, it's a hobby for them, and not a necessity. And they sit all night holding the fishing rod, chatting, and then sleep all day, exhausted. It's no surprise that you didn't catch any fish, but instead, the fish (eel) caught your hook! Because you didn't need it. By the way, did you win the contest :-) after experiencing a strong electric shock from the electric eel?"
