Great FP from Andy on why we fish series https://www.sexyloops.com/index.php/ps/survival
Many years ago when I was a teenager I read some books by Desmond Morris who studied man in the same way we study other apes, which was massively revealing. Sport for example being a substitute for the hunt.
I’m quite sure that the 200,000 years that man spent hunting and camping is much more influential on our natural behaviour than the last few hundred years since the industrial revolution or last 2000 since we’ve become “civilised”. It should be no surprise that some of us feel closer to nature and ourselves when we fish and have campfires!
I feel that I’ve spent my whole life trying to avoid cities
Anyway a great page and fantastic writing from Andy.
Thanks,
Paul
