![]() ![]() How many caught tree limbs, tangled tippets and lost fish before the angler himself snaps? Fly fishing depends more on intuition, luck and a 20-gallon reserve tank of patience. Or should I say “art?” Because a sport can be practiced and one’s skills improved upon. Our family cabin, six years shy of 100 years old, complements the age-old sport of fly fishing. The book my daughter gave me a couple of years ago, “Headwaters: The Adventures, Obsession and Evolution of a Fly Fisherman,” is best read on a screened-on porch overlooking a lake or on a cold June Northwoods morning in a pine-paneled great room, fire snapping beneath a stone chimney, trapezoidal windows reaching up to the roof framing a Norway pine’s green-needled branches. It is hard to read books about catching trout when stuffed in a confining armchair looking out onto a cityscape or even on a beanbag chair in the living room of a prefab suburban home where, outside, green lawn ponds need mowing every week.
