Does fishing cause stress, or does it stop stress.
A study has found that fisherpeople seem to live longer.
But when I have lost a fish, I seem to suffer a bit of stress,
specialy when Ive been battleing it for a while and its gets away.

For me,
Fishing gives me peacefully, relax, enjoy and funout of those stresses, etc. Cos catching fishes to feed the family.
That why I love fishing since I was little girl, now I'm 32 years old and still love fishing
Happy life of fishing,

It's all relaxation for me Tunaman.
I just love being out there on the water with a line in!
Sure it's great when the actions hot, but it's still bloody beaut when it's not!

A Bad day on the water is better than a good day at work...........
Thats to say some things if life you will tolerate just cause you Love It

Fishing is relaxing. When I'm fishing I don't think about anything else.
When I hook or lose a big one though the blood definitely gets flowing but it's not stress just adrenalin.
It's all good
Good topic tunaman, I seem to find it relaxes me. Yes can get a bit frustrating at times when you don't catch or you loose fish.
But Hey, Beats Working

I sold my boat about 8 months ago and have only been able to fish landbased about 3 times in that length of time!
The missus has told me that I am a bit stressed out sometimes and get cranky easily...
When I get my new boat... everything will be A OK...
So I suppose fishing offers me peace and enjoyment!

It is relaxing
I forked out 30k for a new rig 2 years ago and don't get to use it as much as I shouldupgraded from a 4.2m dingy
Need to use it a lot more
Which remindes me I need a fix (fishing that is !) bugger it i'm fishing this weekend
Damo.
fishing is fun. Boating with my lovely wife and our daughter is fun. Buying tackle etc is fun. 'Teabagging' our 18month old is really fun, and helps with nappy rash.
Ramp antics are fun. I say through gritted teeth. If my angry ant stepfather can take up Buddhism at 77, I to can rise above my emotions. One day.
I think you get the best of both worlds.
It is relaxing - meditation kind of way.
How many times have you lost track of time and fished through a crappy tide just because you were so "in the moment"
Also when you do hook up you get that adrenalin rush - all those good hormones and endorphins!
I would dare say it has as many benefits as a good roll in the hay with your favourite . . . . . . but in the long run less expensive
You say fish, I say yes please.
But what if you hook up, over dose on endorphins, then slip over,
land on your arse and slide down the bank into the water, then get up,
climb back up, fish takes a big run, then panic and lock up the drag, line snaps, then you lose balance and slide back into the water.
I think you would call that stressfull.
But this has never happened to me.
But Its true to say, fishing is good for your heath, you see a lot more old and grey fisherpeople than you see in any other sport or hobby.
So study says, through a line in, just dont get too over exsited.

I'm a full time carer for my wife and if I did not got fishing I'd go just as nuts as her so for my very relaxing. Don't care where I go rocks, beach,outside or even in the Tweed. Catching a fish is a bonus but when I drop a big Jew or Tailor off the rocks I curse and carry on like a silly wet hen and put it down to experence
Rainbow Trout is NOT skittle flavoured fish.........
