I like to think of DXing as the ham counterpart of fishing, and QRP as
the counterpart of fly fishing.

Yes indeed, and a contest is a kind of high-speed competitive fishing
with catch-and-release.
And, each competitor can decide at any moment to be either a fisherman
[running] or a fish
[search-and-pounce]

The four stages of fishing:
1 - I caught a fish!
2 - I caught a LOT of fish!
3 - I caught a Trophy fish!
4 - Did I bait my hook?  (the Zen state has been achieved)

Now how do these relate analogically to amateur radio?
