In the beginning...

Once you're hooked...


I can see now where my life took the first turn towards the outside. My first fish, caught from a dock during a family vacation at Clear Lake in Northern California a lifetime ago.


My dad took the photo, and I have always treasured it.

  1. Cool, a real cane pole! Haven't seen one of those in a good long while. I believe they have been replaced with the technically new and improved Tenkara pole. What happened to the classic?

  2. That's funny. I saw the picture and the first thing that came to my mind was, "I'll bet that's Clear Lake." Just because I know you are a CA native, and during that era that was the place to go...

  3. Nice memory. I giggled a little that the shadow of the fish was bigger than the fish itself! I bet you didn't notice back then! You look pretty proud of yourself. (: Some of my favorite memories are of my Dad taking me fishing and camping.
