Eccles has given us another fine piece of writing in
The afternoon after…. wherein his musings cover: menacing fish, fish coloration, the beetles (
not The Fab Four), why an angler catches fish more easily in one section of river than another section of the same river located in fairly close proximity, and the joy of fly fishing – “To me it still feels like magic, as if I have picked the pocket of the stream with such care that only the caught trout notices something amiss, the stream still wandering through the crowd, unaware that what it once enveloped is now in my hand.”
Scott,
Thank you for pointing me to this writing and this site. Wow. A fellow thinker peering under the rocks of life…
Yes Erik, I think you’ll like his stuff. He’s a scientist by vocation and fly fisher by avocation. Although he might label himself differently
. He’s also a reader (check his reading list to the right). Anyhow, good stuff!
