Fishing Memes

All too often, humor is overlooked as a way to see truth and meaning in things. Many times, we laugh at something specifically because we can relate to it. On the Internet, memes have become a widespread means of expressing popular shared opinion regarding particular subject matter. The reason they are so catchy is that people can relate to them on such a broad scale. Throughout this blog, I've highlighted many positive effects of fishing and the value it holds for different people. Here, I've compiled a small collection of memes that (I feel) capture some key aspects of the fishing lifestyle.














As you can see, there are many ways to poke fun at people who love fishing. Additionally, the amount of truth and reality embodied in these memes are what makes them so funny. Humor is a universal tool for communicating; seen in this post as an example of certain cultural norms shared and revered by fishermen.
