    Default "To go fishing is the chance to wash one's soul..........



    "To go fishing is the chance to wash one's soul with pure air, with the rush of the brook, or with the shimmer of sun on blue water. It brings meekness and inspiration from the decency of nature, charity toward tackle-makers, patience toward fish, a mockery of profits and egos, a quieting of hate, a rejoicing that you do not have to decide a darned thing until next week. And it is discipline in the equality of men - for all men are equal before fish."
    - Herbert Hoover
    When you arise in the morning, think of what a
    precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think,
    to enjoy, to love.
    - Marcus Aurelius

    Thumbs up Wonderful Picture!

    Spinner,

    I don't know what your line of work is but if it isn't photography, you're one of the best amateurs I've ever seen. Another super picture, but then again, we expect nothing less from you. 8T
