Fishing – ISE III Trinity Listening Exam.

Now listening again with the script

Life is so frantic it can be a challenge to slow down and devote time to rest and relaxation. Even given the opportunity, some of us find it impossible to do absolutely nothing. We seem to have lost touch with how to wind down. Finding a way to recharge your batteries is essential for good health, and fishing could be just the ticket.

Being outside has obvious benefits, at the very least to blow off the cobwebs of being cooped up in an office for 48 weeks of the year. But there’s actually a scientific reason why being out in the fresh air is beneficial to your health. Even on an overcast day, fishing helps your body to top up on critical reserves of vitamin D, derived from the sun, just from being outside.

It’s easy to mistake fishing as a sedentary sport. While the act of fishing itself isn’t necessarily the most strenuous one can partake in, long walks from the car to the fishing spot, and carrying equipment increase the heart beats per minute. Even setting up, casting off and winding in is more taxing than most expect.

Being near water has been shown by studies to improve burn-out. Wallace J. Nichols has written extensively on the benefits of being near water and its effect on our happiness.

In addition, there are benefits from the simple act of mindfulness, whiling away hours at the edge of a river or lake carrying out a repetitive task. Focusing on where the fly is going to land on the water, breaks the train of everyday thought. Surrounded by nature, anglers have the perfect opportunity to switch off from modern life.

For many, sharing a fishing experience with Dad or Granddad is a childhood rite of passage. It’s a great bonding experience for family and friends. Incorporated with a weekend camping or hiking it can bridge the gap between hard-working dads and technology-obsessed teens.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with a bit of solitude. We all need it from time to time. Having space for quiet contemplation is great for our mental and emotional health.

There’s more to fishing than it may at first seem. Casting a fly properly is one of the most difficult things an angler can learn. So long as you have a little time and patience, you’ll have plenty of time to master a new skill. It will do wonders for your self-esteem and sense of achievement, and especially when you catch your first fish!

If you get to eat your catch, you’ll be notching up your healthy food choices. The NHS Live Well guidelines recommend we eat at least two portions of fish a week. Fish is loaded with important nutrients, including protein, vitamins and minerals

Finally, any fisherman will tell you there’s nothing quite like the excitement of reeling in a prize catch, and it gives you ultimate bragging rights amongst your fishing friends.
