Camping Solitude - and Trout
By trout whisperer :: 1786 Views :: 
|
|
It’s been all afternoon and not one other bite. I have heard the kids being called to dinner and one bout of crying from the other camp site. Daylight’s curtain is being drawn and the hint of pink from the rainbow trout is vaguely familiar in the western horizon...

Do You Remember Your Grandparents?
By trout whisperer :: 1320 Views :: 
|
|
I was built lower to the ground, Grandpa told me that many times, so I could pick stuff up, easier for both of us. The sound of his rubber knee high boots thunkin' and thudding as he strode around the yard is a drum beat to my ears forever...

Some Fresh Air - Red Fox Style
By trout whisperer :: 1275 Views :: 
|
|
This is the 17th set-up and I have seen zip. This is going to be my last for the day. I have snow shoed so far my legs are stiff. Lying in the cold is getting to me. Brown ribbons where the tractors do not plow surround the fields like a fence, god made it out of cattails. I have a perch with a very wide country view...

|
|
Knife River is a small community on the north shore of Lake Superior on the Minnesota side, between Duluth and Two Harbors. Many years ago this was a busy harbor for lake trout fisherman. Now there are only remnant families that still ply the commercial trade but are only allowed to net herring...

Into the Night
By trout whisperer :: 869 Views ::

|
I step outside and the darkness is everything. I stand still to let my eyes adjust. Chips of starlight appear in the night sky. Underfoot is Snow and glows white, anything above ground level appears black. If I focus directly on anything the shapes melt. So I just scan the yard. Stars and snow illuminate bit by bit...

Reflections - Boundry Waters Canoe Area
By trout whisperer :: 1655 Views ::
|
|
I’m lying in the sunshine on a very large rock. This piece of ancient igneous is located on the North Shore of Pine Lake in northeastern Minnesota. I did not kill myself getting here. No arduous portages. Mosquitoes? Non-existent. Paddling easily at two miles per hour with a nicely loaded canoe made for a leisurely pace...

Fishing Echos | All you have to do is listen
By trout whisperer :: 1150 Views ::
|
|
Now I let go with the word fishing, and not in a canyon. No echo. But the sound waves go forth. To my ears, it is first and foremost brook trout fishing in small streams. Its how I acquired my nickname. The first feeling that wells up in others could be a daredevil tossed for pike, the next, hand lining for lake trout, or jig and minnow for walleyes...
