Story: No Fish in New Places

In a listing of a few of their newer tales at Flyfish Journal, you’ll discover a short but sweet piece by Christopher Schaberg. It’s in regards to the confusion that units in after not catching fish in a brand new place, particularly after Schaberg felt he had the little sunfish pond discovered.

After a transfer from New Orleans to St. Louis, he was relegated to metropolis ponds and their resident sunfish. When he moved there it was heat and the fish have been cooperative, however ultimately winter arrived and the fishing shut off. As soon as spring hit, although, Schaberg reckoned he had probability to hook into some sunfish once more, particularly for the reason that smallmouth fishing was too far-off for him on the time.

Solely he didn’t catch something. Not even after his success the earlier summer time and fall.

It’s a splendidly written little story, that’s probably paying homage to experiences we’ve all had. You possibly can learn it here.
