Fishing and What We Are Reminded Of


First I must say as I write this a close friend who is more a brother than a friend is fighting for his life in a hospital in Longview Texas.  

I was reminded as to why I guide and what it means to those who travel and fish with me.  Most of all it is the companionship and the experience of sharing nature and God’s creation. I know it seems we are all focused on fishing but when we break it down it is as this photo of a family shows, its about the grins and giggles of what might or does bite your string.  Sharing the moment of joy when you accomplish the difficult task of mastering the soft and rapid bite of a Lake Trout.

In the second photo of Sean it’s was about a day of new skills and the reminder of others, the joy of sharing a craft that has been passed down for centuries by show and tell. 

Please pass along or pay it forward with the gifts and skills you have, it does not matter what they are our world thrives on this joy.
          
The fishing at Granby Resv. has been amazing this last week with opportunities for all species available.

Please remember if you would like to bring a youth fishing with you, they fish with me for free up to the age of 15.  I encourage you to take advantage of this offer and create a day of memories and adventure.
