Nameless lake with fisher

May 30, 2011

Babs has been taking experimental routes home. She writes: This was taken somewhere in the depths of Antrim County. I often drive a different way on my trip back from East Jordan and cannot tell you where I’ve been. This was one of those trips. It’s a small lake somewhere with one fisherman. I can’t […]

Freedom’s just another word for fishing

As Ratty said to Mole, there is nothing—absolutely nothing—half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.  And Babs . . .  well, Babs lets her photos do the talking.

For some reason, fishing has been on my mind a lot lately.  It’s not that I’m any great sportswoman.  No catch-and-release for me.  I’m a catch and eat proponent.  Take the yellow perch, for example – Perca flavescens. It even sounds delicious. But I also love just sitting in the boat thinking and fishing.  It’s […]
