    Of course, now I am too old to be much of a fisherman, and now of
    course I usually fish the big waters alone, although some friends
    think I shouldn't. Like many fly fishermen in western Montana
    where the summer days are almost Arctic in length, I often do not
    start fishing until the cool of the evening. Then in the Arctic
    half-light of the canyon, all existence fades to a being with my
    soul and memories and the sounds of the Big Blackfoot River and a
    four-count rhythm and the hope that a fish will rise.

The fisher droppeth his net in the stream,
And a hundred streams are the same as one;
And the maiden dreameth her love-lit dream;
And what is it all, when all is done?
The net of the fisher the burden breaks,
And always the dreaming the dreamer wakes.

Three fishers went sailing away to the west,
Away to the west as the sun went down;
Each thought on the woman who loved him the best,
And the children stood watching them out of the town.

Fly fishing is a very pleasant amusement; but angling or float
fishing, I can only compare to a stick and a string, with a worm
at one end and a fool at the other.
