Us fisher types don't know how good we've got it sometimes. I have mates whos' only hobbies are collecting dvds or watching movies etc... and they are in their mid 40s. My old man took me and my brother surfcasting around Dorklands west coast since I was 7, carrying a 13 foot surfcaster and rock hopping. It's a pass time that gets you outdoors in the fresh air and you might even get dinner. In my opinion it's one of the best things to introduce your kids to since if they have no experience when they are young, are very unlikely to take it up out of the blue when they are older.
Kids these days ( and millennials), seem to mainly only be interested in screens and to be entertained via tv or the interweb utube etc..then getting out and actually doing stuff. It seems to be luck of the draw with who you are born to, if they are into outdoor stuff. Otherwise it just doesn't seem to register ( with the odd exception where adults take up hunting or fishing). .
