I remember going fishing with my dad once and it wasn't a pretty site.  Sure the father-son bonding time was great but I had some issues when it came to having to handle the fish and take the hook out of their mouths and it wasn't an experience we ever repeated.  I think we might have to try it again now that Sega Bass Fishing has shipped to stores.  We can sit around the house, and just play the virtual version which is as close to fishing as this nancy-boy suburbanite is going to get.
