This black ribbon rivulet is hard to get to. It is a tough place to fish. Overhung branches make casting impossible. There may be dry fly purists but this is a creek their not invited too. Vegetation so thick you cannot take a stride without tangling in something. Every step better be measured or you’ll be fitted for a primordial casket...

I gotta tell you about my daughter. I have three heroes in life and she’s one of mine. Were fishing for trout up on Hogback Lake. I'm hip dip in my chest waders fly fishing and my twelve year old angel is worm dunking. She yells for me so I waddle to shore and walk up the fishing platform. In her grasp is a twelve inch rainbow...

But in my book, he is spectacular. I caught him sleeping one day I was chasing woodcock in October and I have been buck struck, ever since. I watched him sleeping and actually saw him open his eyes...

Some of us have favorite sports heroes. Maybe like me it’s an athlete that did something in your lifetime like Kent Hrbek did in mine. He took a little round ball and with regular frequency, sent it over the baggie and left it forever in history...

Complete cessation of wind. No hissing or popping, the fire has died to ashes. Water so calm its not lapping against the shore. I think everything outdoors is tired and I know I am. All of this northern most Minnesota nature is shutting down...

There is going to be a kid that gets his or hers first deer this season. Just prior to that happening I hope that there eyes get as big and round as a deer’s do. That they somehow can’t hear anything over there own pounding heart. Maybe an older sibling or grampa is sitting with them just for a last minute pointer and to keep the story on track after the shot...
