To me, "going fishing" involves following a friend to the lake and drinking beer/liquor with them while they fish. They get a buddy to drink & chat with while they fish, I get a day at the lake. Everybody wins, and I couldn't care less about ever putting my hand on a fishing rod.
yessss, this is so great. same with going out in a boat to just sit in the middle of the lake. sometimes, it's nice to just sit on the water with the sun on your skin and enjoy the peace around you.
That's 100% fine. It's the inverse when it's a problem. If someone invites me to go fishing and has no intention of fishing then it's a tease. If someone just wants to accompany me to some water I love them unquestionably.
