Re:Humbled By Steel 15 Years, 8 Months ago  
Bruce-
It was enjoyable spending time on the water with you.Glad you spent a day swinging!Maybe the runs next season will live up to your expectations.As I have told you before I can only expect to fish the water thoroughly,cast better each time out and relish the natural beauty of the coastal rivers.If I get a grab or hook a fish it is just icing on the cake.I have to say hooking 4 fish in a little over an hours time was surreal!It was as if I actually know what I am doing!Not.Anyways,until next time.

Fish On!

Jay

Re:Humbled By Steel 15 Years, 8 Months ago  
Yep, fishing is about many things, and the beauty of where we fish is certainly one of them. Let us not, though, forget that this is also about something very primal..."the hunt".

We make the hunt as challenging as possible, but we still greatly desire a fish on the end of our lines.

We'll do it again as soon as we can.

Gawd damn! If that's really the Princess, the Prince is either:

A- Not familiar with the concept of marrying younger and dying first, or

B- About 117 years old and needs a fist full of viagra to get Mr. Happy to snap to attention.......

Either way the Shepherd is concluding that being of 'royalty' is vastly overrated....

My grandfather caught me off guard when I was in my youth more than once.

One of my favorites surely applies here. "The pretty ones can, but the ugly ones have to."

Yeah but she wouldn't be if (depending on which camp you are in):

    1. He hadn't divorced her.
    2. He hadn't had her killed.
