    Of course, now I am too old to be much of a fisherman, and now of
    course I usually fish the big waters alone, although some friends
    think I shouldn't. Like many fly fishermen in western Montana
    where the summer days are almost Arctic in length, I often do not
    start fishing until the cool of the evening. Then in the Arctic
    half-light of the canyon, all existence fades to a being with my
    soul and memories and the sounds of the Big Blackfoot River and a
    four-count rhythm and the hope that a fish will rise.

Praise be to Nero's Neptune

Fighting in the captain's tower
While calypso singers laugh at them
And fishermen hold flowers.

Oh the brave Fisher's life,
It is the best of any,
'Tis full of pleasure, void of strife,
And 'tis belov'd of many:

Only this Lawful is,
For our skill Breeds no ill,
But content and pleasure.
