English term or phrase: out casting
And first I went on a fishing trip. I finally started to wear these arms. I wore them for 10 to 15 minutes at a time just get used to them. And now I can work from daylight – from the time I get up, to the time I go to bed. The first time I went to fish was very awesome. I was so excited. I went out, bought a brand new Zipco 33 and spent about 100 dollars. It’s an awesome rod and reel and we’re out casting.

Spanish translation:Y salimos a pescar (a lanzar) / Y ahí estamos, pescando (lanzando)
Explanation:
Creo que en este caso la expresión es and we are out doing something (casting).
En el contexto dado, and we are out parece referirse a y ahí estamos, y salimos. En cuanto a casting, parece referirse a lanzar, al gesto de desplegar el hilo de la caña de pescar.

By the way; Zebco instead of Zipco?

agree  JohnMcDove: Esto me recuerda a aquel diálogo entre sordos: "-¿Vas de pesca? -No, voy de pesca. -Ah, creí que ibas de pesca. -Ah, pues ya lo ves, sí, voy de pesca".
