Jiang Taigong's intention of fishing is not fish but politics, he often in the Zhou Wen Wang hunting or patrol must pass by the Weishui River, that is, today's Baoji County Panxi River, fishing with a straight hook, on the one hand, through the fishing to exercise the body and refine the will; on the other hand, but also in the thinking of the country's major events, study countermeasures, and wait for the right time to realize their own political ambitions.

Second, unwilling to be in the same boat with the current dynasty, living in the mountains, to farming and fishing for fun, to maintain their own high ethos During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a famous scholar named Yan Ziling, also known as Yan Guang, he was a teenager and the Han Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu classmates, the two have a very deep relationship, love like brothers. When Liu Xiu seized power and became Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, he remembered his boyhood friend and admired him, so he sent his ministers to invite Yan Ziling to the capital as a counselor and expressed his wish to travel with him on the same day and stay on the same bed at night.

Yan Ziling fishing there are two allusions are also very touching. One is? Sheep fur fishing?
Yan Ziling also has two allusions to fishing. Said Yan Guang when he was a teenager and Liu Xiu classmates, the two are very good. When Liu Xiu became Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, Yan Guang left the capital to change his name and hide in the mountains. Liu Xiu thought of his wisdom, so he sent people around to look for, someone reported that there is a cloak of sheep fur in the Fuchun River fishing is Yan Ziling. So Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty sent a eunuch to invite Yan Ziling, but was categorically refused. Later people used the phrase "fishing in sheep's fur" to describe the story of Yan Ziling.

The story goes that when Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty sent a man with a brocade robe and a jade belt to invite Yan Ziling to return to the capital to become an official, Yan Ziling not only refused, but also said that the angler does not need a brocade robe and a jade belt. The fisherman is not to use the brocade robe and jade belt?

These small fish every year in May to cluster against the current, come to the Ziling fishing platform, pay a visit to Yan Ziling, year after year, year after year must come. Later generations feel its sincerity, called it? Ziling fish?

"River Snow". The poem reads. Birds fly away from thousands of mountains, ten thousand paths of people trail off; lone boat Demoiselle Weng, fishing alone in the cold river snow. The poem has a picture in it, and the picture has a poem in it.
Imagine in that bird are not, no trace of people in the mountains, alone in the snowy days fishing, visible fishing environment is how serene, its temperament is how lonely, how painful in the heart. Liu Zongyuan was a young man with political aspirations. He was repeatedly deported for his participation in the changes advocated by Wang Shuwen. He was first deported to Yongzhou, Hunan Province, where he stayed for 10 years, and then to Liuzhou, Guangxi Province. However, he was indomitable, tenacious and strong.

Another poet, Zhang Zhihe, is also a fishing fan, calling himself ? Smoke wave fishing disciple? Zhejiang Jinhua people, Tang Suzong when the officer to the Jingwuwei recorded senator, because of dissatisfaction with the corruption of the officialdom, abandoned his post to live in the rivers and lakes, to fishing for fun. It is said that he was fishing in Taihu Lake, often without bait, not in the fish, in order to express their own not in love with the officialdom, love of the landscape, self-gratification of the interest and ambition.
His? fishing song? The word: "The white heron flies in front of Xisai Mountain.

Is the best expression of its state of mind, the pursuit of natural beauty, the harmony of man and nature. And Meng Haoran's? Fishing sitting on the rock, the water is also idle? The water is clear and the mind is also idle. Cold return to the mountain view with the chess game, warm into the Tingzhou by fishing spandex? and Zhang Zhihe's? Fishing is leisure when you are in a storm. are the best embodiment of this cultural and spiritual realm.
Fourth, fishing to cultivate the body and temperament, cultivate the interest, to relieve the worries of the pastime, in order to stimulate their creative enthusiasm, improve their level of creativity. This is another cultural and spiritual realm of fishing The great poets of the ages, lyricists, writers, prose artists, painters, such as Li Bai, Du Fu, Du Mu, Wang Wei, Meng Haoran, Zhang Zhihe, Han Yu, Su Dongpo, Li Shangyin, Fan Chengda, Lu You, JI Xiaolan, Tang Yin, Zheng Banqiao, Ma Puchen, as well as female poets, Li Shunxian, Mrs. Rui, etc., none of them is a fishing enthusiasts.
Through fishing, they appreciated the beautiful scenery of nature, enjoyed the fun of fishing, and expressed their love for life; on the other hand, they experienced life through fishing, looked at the people's feelings, collected a large number of creative materials, and melted the feelings of fishing into the poems, writing a large number of excellent poems, which became an important cultural and spiritual wealth of our country.
For example, Li Bai's Fishing Alone on the Qingxi River, Du Mu's Gift to the Fisherman, Wang Wei's Clear Streams, Meng Haoran's Prime Minister Zhang on the Dongting, Bai Juyi's Even Fishing on the Wei River, Gao Shi's Fishing Father, Han Yu's Solitary Fishing, Mrs. Hua Rui's Fishing, and Ning's Fisherman, Lu You's Fishing Father, Tang Yin's Fishing, Zheng Banqiao's Fisherman, and Ma Pochen's Fishing, and so on. .

Qing Dynasty poet Ma Puchen's "fishing" poem: since the long pole, career by the end of the water, no contest fish lost, only love evening peach blossom. There are poems to reflect the poet's concern for the people, the country's sadness, only fishing to dispel the heart of the resentment and have no choice.
such as dufu in his later years in chengdu, in yan wu under when the police, because there is nothing to do, often go fishing, yan wu specifically wrote a poem to advise dufu don't miss the official because of fishing, dufu immediately wrote two poems in reply, one of the cloud: the collection has been put together a number of lines of books, laziness from the water bamboo home, Bong cited abuse ride sand court horse, the ghost of the real fishing jinjiang river fish. The second is: the two reflections of the palace insulted the poem, Yuan Rong willing to go to the wild period, the old and sick by the river, although powerless, strong like the sunny day fishing wire.
Fifth, by fishing to relax the body and mind, so that the brain is fully rested, in order to prepare for the war, which is also a cultural and spiritual realm of the ancients fishing Qing Kangxi years, Jiangsu Province, Baoying County, there is a young scholar named Wang Shidan, he not only studied hard since childhood, read the scriptures, but also good at learning, learning and leisure combination is very good. This year, Jiangsu held a township examination, other candidates are busy day and night reading, memorization, preparation for the examination. And Wang style Dan is not in a hurry, more puzzling is three days before the exam, he picked up a fishing rod, ran to the reeds, tree-lined Baoying Lake fishing went.
In the fishing process, Wang Dan on the one hand, suffered from the fresh air of the lake, beautiful environment, so that the body and mind to get enough rest and relaxation, clear-headed, energetic; on the other hand, he was in the process of fishing, according to the requirements of the examination, conceptualized a four, six pair of parallel texts, played a good draft, with the conviction of victory in the exams, the examination in one fell swoop in the lifts. Then he participated in the national examination and the temple examination, won the first place, and became the scholar of the time. Another story takes place in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and the main character of the story is Ji Xiaolan.
Ji Xiaolan was both a great writer and a man of letters, and a man who loved fishing. One day, Emperor Qianlong and Ji Xiaolan went on a trip together.

The fishing scene will be the fishing man fishing string together, there are moving and static, scenarios blending, leaping on the paper, especially as a landscape painting, so that people have to call out.
The reason why Ji Xiaolan was able to answer all the questions and come up with a short time? Fishing stanza?
