You still have not said how many days after arrival you made your complaint. There is a presumption that receipt by the passenger of his baggage without complaint is prima facie evidence that it was received in good condition.
You may be able to show that 4 hours is unreasonable. What you need to do is show that your complaint was made in a reasonable time. The fact that you didn't go fishing is not a real reason. Perhaps you may not go fishing until next summer, and only discover it then, but that will not give you the right to make the complaint several months later.
