5) Competing against likeminded peers, is a great opportunity to find new innovative techniques
6) Socialising in fishing is more rewarding than work
7)The detrmination to get just one more fish......
8) 7 Hours behind and electric is better than 7 hours behind a keyboard.
9) The locations that the Tournie scene will take you to.
10) One day ill beat that b..as..rd

Pretty much spot on!
