Recently, we looked at games to play inside and outside. Today, let’s go on an angling excursion.

We can plan a trip to the Adirondacks…

You say you’re aiming for flounder?

Not likely where we’re going.
We’re looking for trout!

Though Rachel Carson tell us “It’ll be Shad-Time Soon”.

We’ll make a stop at Mike’s Bait & Tackle,

We’ll use all the tricks we learned from the father of catch-and-release fly fishing, Lee Wulff.

We might run into Ernest Hemingway …

… or Sylvia and Edwin Beinecke.

But if we don’t land anything worth bragging about, we can try Rudyard Kipling’s advice on Dry-Cow Fishing.

After all, our motto is: “I Wouldn’t Take Tuesday Off if You’d Show Me a Fish that Would Bite on Weekends!”

Happy (Virtual) Angling!
