i like poking about all day, so i'm not one of the morning and evening
hatch guys.


I poke about more than might be guessed by my "fish a couple hours a day"
Suffice it to say that when you expect to fish every day for the next
several months, poking changes meaning.

And I have limited physical abilities, too much poking and the next day is
mainly pain pills. ( had another MRI yesterday, maybe another operation
soon ) One reason I don't seek out you or other roffians coming to "my"
area in the summer is simply that I'd be a real stick in the mud for you
viral youngsters, out to cover the miles and challenge the depths of the
canyons.

Saunter is a pace I have the luxury of being able to afford, and if I miss
out on something because I didn't get there today, there is always tomorrow
..... if not, well I'll not be in a situation to care

Reread my "couple hours" to "very leisurely pace," and it will have
slightly more accuracy.

**** larry...i'm 57. and...i often find pleasure in a different cadence
with good company (which i feel certain you would be...and much better
than i'd offer in return). i've been privileged to fish wit a lot of
folks. i've enjoyed the fishing 100% of the time (even with
fortenberry)...well, maybe 99%. there was one time jim was going to beat
my ass and throw me out of the boat in the gulf stream that wasn't too
much fun.

anyhow...there's photos, conversation, and an awful lot of info about
fly-tying, etc. that can occupy a fisherman's leisure fishing days.
give it a shot one year.

"poking about" for you approaches "high-speed death march whilst waving a
fly rod" for me. Hell, Makela and I tried to catch up with you at Penn's one
year while you
"poked about" over water that I would have taken 3 days to cover.
