Dear Editor,
"Fishing" Report April 2014T'was the first day of fishing and along many streamsThe fishers were fishing for the fish of their dreams.We checked out the scenery and what did we seeFishers "elbow to elbow" and some "knee to knee."There were tall ones and small ones some young and some oldAnd we gave them all credit for the morning was cold.The one stream we looked at (about 10 feet wide)Had fishermEn lined up on right and left side.But cold must not bother those "fit as a fiddle"For there's a guy wading right down through the middle.One fisherman mutters under his breath"I guess this guy's trying to stomp them to death."A lake that we looked at had no place to parkThe faithful fold here surely came in the dark.Now we saw something here that poses a riddleWhile folks on the shore try to cast in the middleSome fishers in boats (we've seen this before)Are doing their best to cast near the shore.But whether or not they came home with troutWe hoped that all enjoyed their day out.Jacque PatrickTamaqua
