Novice fisherman tend to think of themselves the predator, and the fish their prey. Enough time at sea will learn ye that your as much the hunter as you are the hunted. Too many careless sailors lose their lives to a catch bigger than they could handle. I once saw a man leap overboard to wrestle in what he thought was a fish on his line. But she was waitin’ for him. Hopin he’d give her the chance. It ain’t a hunt. It’s a fight. A battle between two worthy foes, and ye best respect your opponent.
