This is exactly how my late wife and I felt about being on Clendening and Piedmont lakes on our pontoon boat. Both of those bodies of water are largely undeveloped, with rolling, wooded hills and wildlife. We never felt bad if we didn't catch fish. Glad you two feel the same way.

We have always tended to lean on the undeveloped lakes for this reason as well. The hills, woods, seclusion, peace and quiet to enjoy the whole package. The insect sounds in the video is typical summer sounds that we recorded and to me they are most relaxing. We have the famous Buckeye Lake 10 or 12 miles away, 1/3rd closer than our usual go-to Rush Creek. Pass it by as it's Way to busy and near every foot of shoreline is developed into lakeside houses. Many trips over the years long before and after our dabbling with youtube there would many times I couldn't be bothered to bait a hook. Living the moments were far more rewarding. Sonya and I had conversed early on in our channel time, that we really didn't have a hard core "dedicated" fishing only channel and that was fine. There had to be some others out there that pursued and done the things we do. If we goof off and walk the woods a little, that's fine. If we anchored in the shade and kicked back for however long, fine. If we caught some fish, that's fine and if we didn't, that's just fine too. lol. The total package is what we enjoy. And accept our belated condolences for you late wife. We hit 40 years last December and are reluctantly starting to get to the point or age one of us will go someday and both find that unimaginable.
