Clackin' On...

With all the news of heart-related diseases linked with obesity and lack of physical exercise these days, I reminded myself to engage in a more routine exercise regime to work off all the KFC and fried stuff I've been indulging in lately. Sitting around after meals does not help much either. So I was very happy when I learnt we'll be going trekking again. The walking should help burn up some calories.

Weather forecast was supposed to be horrid. It had been raining for the past week and despite the forecast, we still went ahead with our plan. We MUST burn up some calories, remember? Of course, not before we walloped some big bowls of noodles and eggs washed down with coffee. Ahhh.... where were we? Oh yes! Physical exercise! BURP!

After walking what seemed to be thousands of steps later, we reached our first spot. T-shirts were still not soaked through. Not sweating enough! A few casting swings should get some blood flowing through the upper body. 

 One for the morning! On Clackin' Minnow again

Then another! Clackin' Minnow was on fire! 

The fish and the lure that fooled him... or her (!?)

By the end of the exercise session, I was sure our garments were wet enough for us to qualify in any 'Wet T-Shirt' contest. It was a good workout session. Actually fishing is a good form of exercise. So if next time the better half complains that you fish too much, explain the health benefits of fishing! ;) Oh, and don't forget to justify the expenses of getting some Rapala Clackin' Raps for the exercise sessions too.
