Reminds me a bit of the story of an accent Chinese monk, who loved to fish (having done so as a boy) but (as a good enlightened Buddhist) abhorred killing.
He fished from a bridge, hanging his line and hook (un-baited of course} down to a foot or two above the water.
When asked, he said that if a fish choose to leap up out of the water and voluntarily commit suicide by hanging itself on his hook, he would not interfere with that fish’s karmic decision.
Otherwise, he’d enjoy a nice peaceful day outdoors, and felt no pressure to lie about the size of “the one that got away” as so many fisherman are prone to do.
What’s the challenge in that? Reminds me of a joke I heard about the guy who liked a challenge so he used to use the toilet with his clothes on and the seat down.

Considering they’re always barefoot, I’d say he does.

Clumsy’s fishing ice, he just told you that.
Why would he need a hole? To fish water?
Some people, I swear.

I hope that this will not be anything like when Tim went ice fishing on Home Improvement.

Look at the size of the ice he caught, ice fishing! Will he be able to fit it all in the ice bucket in the fridge?

Nah. He’d stick his head in the water and end up with it frozen in the ice.

However if one does crash through the ice and grabs his bait, just think of the size that monster would be and the stories that he would tell….
