Anglers, by nature, are an easy going lot. Spending time standing in a stream or floating in a pond is reward unto itself. Most times catching a fish is a bonus. It is absorbing the sights and the sounds that just take away the stress and the anxiety of everyday life.

More and more, I find myself in search of remote ponds where the solitude takes me to another world. Rarely is there another angler at my chosen location. It is me, a beaver or loon, and the trout. I am sure if anyone sees me in my nirvana they think I am slightly askew.
