True, but a non-sequitur ... or a joke?

"Fishing" isn't always for fish.  You can fish for compliments, fish
around for coins in your pocket, etc.  Fishing is just seeking something
you aren't sure is going to get found where you are looking for it.

On  _Deadliest Catch_ I heard a comment when a bunch of crab pots came
up empty, "That's why they call it 'fishing', not 'catching'...".
