A Diary Entry
Dear Diary,
Well…a little miracle yesterday as a brightly colored brown trout decided that my size 22 midge would be a tasty way to start the day. If you don’t know what a 22 is, it could fit inside a cheerio.
Some might say that that’s no miracle but might change their mind knowing the previous four trips in search of willing fish found my net to be unnecessary.
Upon returning home, I was saddened to hear that Dan Hicks had passed away suddenly in Connecticut. Dan was the talented and cherished lead announcer on golf telecasts for NBC for over 25 years. He was 64 and leaves behind his wis wife Hannah and three children. He, Jim Nance, Dick Edberg standout as three of the premier and classiest people that have elevated golf broadcasting.
I guess my very lonely fishing net is really no big deal in the bigger scheme of things.
Speaking of nets, if I ever go fishing with Amanda, I’ll need to buy a larger net.
*** Amanda reported that the bait was not a midge but a Big Mac on a huge hook.
