Magic
Each and every stream I journey on has its own magic.
Cleanse my soul
""About three years ago I made a comment to an acquaintance about trout fishing being so important to me, and he dismissed it. He said trout fishing was the least important thing he does in life and I shouldn't make it so important.
I wholeheartedly disagree with him. Many people go to church to feel spiritual and be in touch with the universe. I go into the outdoors to cleanse my soul. All the things in life that bother me are melted away about a hundred yards from the truck. The fish are only a bonus in the whole scheme of things.
I no longer have contact with this angler.
Each and every stream I journey on has its own magic. From the tiny brook trout stream in southern Vernon County to my favorite large waterway in Richland I am renewed each time I wet a line.
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
