The first day back on the water was pretty damn nice. I had good weather and good company. This day happen to fall on Veterans Day so I took a Marine friend of mine who was in Vietnam in ’68. He is new to the sport and it was an honor to show him the ropes and the Blue. Like most mornings we were on the fish pretty fast and before I knew what was going on I had 5 to hand and he 3.
It felt good to get back into the rhythm, reading water, casting, playing the fish to hand. All the troubles of the world and battlefields of yesterday seem to disappear down stream with the leaves of the previous spring.
Thank you to all who have served this country and to those serving now.
