So much to share and so little time. Afraid I’m racing to cram this blog in between fishing sessions and mountains of work. So much for a leisurely retirement. A commission to write a piece for Advanced Pole Fishing set me thinking about how much time I spend pole fishing compared to, say, 25 years [...]
