You've probably heard the Chinese proverb,
"Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, and he will eat for a lifetime."
So who doesn’t want to learn how to fish?Recently, it seems that there is an uprising of fishermen around in the Salsa Scene. Sometimes it gets so bad that you can see fishermen fighting for one fish. C’mon dudes, there are tons of fishes in the sea, why waste a
Garoupa for an
Ikan Billis. Prepare yourself for a whale or a shark, assuming if you are more adventurous.
The point is there are quite a few kinds of fishermen around.
Fisherman #1 – The Man with the Fishing Rod
Ideally, such man uses his baits and catches one fish at a time. Not too much, but one fish at a time. He sits patiently and waits for his catch to come. Once his good fortune sinks in, he catches a fish. It could be any species of fish. He tastes the fish, probably not very appropriate to his liking; he spits it away and continues fishing.
Fisherman #2 – The Man with the Fishing Net
The perfect characteristics of a greedy man. Nothing can be ever enough. Such fishermen usually have a very perverted look and he is nowhere near the category of a common man. Very desperate and once swore to the Dragon King that he will
hump catch every fish in the sea. By using a net, such fisherman usually has a very wide variety of catch. Young fish, old fish, fat fish, skinny fish, Chinese fish, Malay fish, Indian fish, Ang Moh fish. As the saying goes in his theory, “As long as there is fish, it will be a good fish.”
Fisherman #3 – The Hardworking Man who gets the Fish
He waits patiently for his fish. He only wants to catch one fish. The sun has set and the moon has set but still he waits. He waits for the Golden Pearl of the sea. He gets the freshest bait he could find and he sacrifices all his time to sit by the sea and watches over his Golden Pearl. He finally caught his fish. He is happy. And I hope he stays happy. At least for now.
Fisherman #4 – The Lucky Man who gets the Fish
Such fishermen do not fish. They just happen to sit by the lake and fishes starts jumping from nowhere and offer themselves. They take their pick to find the fattest juiciest fish and then they walk away. Bastards. Freaking stealing the livelihood of the normal fishermen. These bastards are so lucky sometimes that even if they pee in the lake, the fishes would also hallucinate to think that that was bait. The fishes started jumping out if the lake to get their bait. Hope such bastards get a shark the next time.
Fisherman #5 – The Man who is not sought out to be a Fisherman
These are the men who are always catching boots, used condoms, transformers toys from the sea. Quite a loser sometimes that they cannot visualize that they are not suited to be a fisherman. They do not have the technique, the skills, the good baits, and the patience. They start to fish because all their friends are fishermen. They should change their occupation and realize that maybe they have better talents in another way such as becoming an eyebrow plucker.
