This descibes my weekend activities and attitude too. For me, I didn't enter any contests this year and also let my commercial license go.(no more unnecessary stress for me anymore) The license was no biggie as I haven't landed sellable numbers of fish in eons, but the no contest thing makes a difference for me. Believe it or not, I battled and dropped a real large fish at my feet this morning and started laughing. I was on my way home from fishing when a good friend called me over to where he was and I hooked up on the fish shortly after arriving. Its become much more fun now with nothing on the line and I'm having a great season as a result.

You're not losing it Flap, you're simply not allowing it to consume you, at least not yet. Its a Zen thing....

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
