Fish On....or Not on?

I think it's pretty clear that I LIKE to fish..This year I have my own hip
waders, fishing pole, chest waders, and I'M READY...one small snafu..the fish
run so far is at an all time low. NOT COOL. Couple weeks ago we headed to the
Kenai. Let me first say that it's amazing there. The scenery and beauty is
enough by itself but add 4 grillion people...As you can see above, people are
what they call "combat fishing". It's elbow to elbow and you usually have to
wait for a spot to open up before getting your pole in. Once I found a spot, I
fished for maybe an hour before I was done. I have never been a patient person
and even though it's a fruit of the spirit...I think I got skipped when God was
handing that one out. I'm certain that's why God gave me the most patient man
on earth. It was rainy and cold and not even a bite. We fished for two days
and caught ZERO fish. Super Awesome. Well, we went back last week and tried
again and caught........NOTHING. Even MORE AWESOME! We leave tomorrow night for
four days to go dip netting. It's a whole nother process of fishing and it will
be my first time. I'm super excited cause the fish counts are going up, my
attitude is refreshed and this time...I wont come home empty handed...
