It's the song of rippling water
and the beauty of the stream, It's the flash of trout when
feeding In the sinking sunlight's gleam.
That's anticipation
It's the way you gauge your backcast and the way you drop your
fly and it's how your line is tightened as the fly goes
floating by.
That's fishing
It's a symphony of music in tune with natures best.
A rhyme of song and motion that puts your cares to rest.
That's relaxation
So take your flies and leaders, your reel and old fly rod and
wade your favorite trout stream, Then you'll be close to God.
That's the truth.
Howard Black
this wonderful world of trout - Charles k. Fox
