 Reflect . . . for just a moment and imagine that you find yourself far and away from the chaos and disorder of the asphalt maze, consumed by the urge and sudden notion of outdoor adventure and piscatorial pursuit. An enlightening journey of persuasive thoughts guide you to a destination of perfect solitude . . . .
 First light  offers up warmth and perspective with millions of bright shimmers upon a crystalline mountain stream tumbling onward to its final destination, preserved only by the perpetual life-cycle of nature and the passing of time. Off in the distance, hues of crimson and amber gradually ascend fading into the endless backdrop of pale-blue draped across a spacious horizon. Fragrant scents of a new day fill the fresh morning sky while carefree notes of nearby songbirds gently linger in the wafting breeze . . . . 
 Images of peaceful and captivating beauty in all of nature's serenity occupy the senses as your soul becomes awakened with renewed energy in contrast. The constricting layers of yesterday's burdens begin to shed and fade away, long forgotten. Like an old friend - little time is needed to get reacquainted with this familiar and frequent place of personal refuge . . . .  
 At the river's edge,  you engage the cherished angling spot which through the years you've chosen to affectionately call "your own" and once again find it teeming with the promise of healthy resident fish. Quietly you enter - welcomed by the invigorating and cleansing rush of cold, gin-clear stream flow passing beneath you . . . .
 In close proximity,  dimpling rise-forms appear upon the stream's surface like reverberating rings as respectable numbers of wild trout  randomly emerge from the depths and "rise to the occasion" foraging on the abundant fare of aquatic insect life . . . .
Captured by a moment  of sensory overload and silent bliss, you remain poised and watchful of the quarry - ready to deliver your best, hand-tied dry fly simulation reciprocated by your prized, custom made Split-Bamboo fly rod.  A "perfect day" on the water.
