You’re just operating on a whole other level.

It’s a good time. Roll out of the tent and fish the daybreak hours, take a nap, do some low-prospect afternoon wet wading and casting, go get some coffee then hit it hard again until sunset. Depending on the State Park, you might have to suffer through hours of “the sound of freedom” overhead...

Call him Area 51 because he’s always got extra terrestrials.

A shark has a funny way of redefining “arms length”
