We can take the phrase 'gone fishing' back as far as the neolithic period of human development; to go back further is just plain silly, because mostly all anyone did was to go fishing. About 10,000 years ago people had entered what we like to call the 'new stone age', or the 'Flintstone Era.' Take your pick. 
A polite stone worker known as Bobstone somehow mass produced the first Gone Fishing sign when he was chipping out multiple doormats for local merchants. Bobstone apparently was attempting to etch a pleasant 'stick design' into the stone mats when he accidentally invented language and coincidentally spelled out 'gone fishing' in a rudimentary caveman font, sans serif. The rest is history, for these were the neanderthals and everyone knows that they eventually phased out, to be totally replaced by yours truly, ahem, modern man.
...and that is your history lesson for the day, or more likely, the year.

Hahah! Theme Thursday without a Theme Thursday.
Odd thing is... I almost did the same thing. What a cool prompt that would've been.
And are those your practice efforts for TC? The golf one is priceless.
i particularly like the smell everything one...nice tt-non-tt...smiles.
history lesson noted, and yet...I feel like I've learned nothing.
;)
So easy a caveman can do it! (Sorry. Somebody had to post it. :-))
so that's how it happened. Thanks for the enlightenment. I need a stone doormat mine's a bit shabby. Sweet doodles, Toby's a star.
my favourite is the "you blinked"
