I find it difficult to continually write expository articles without occasionally lapsing into an autobiographical anecdote or story of a mishap or whimsical tale of a fond memory. Rather than aspire to the humorous tall-tale genre, I have striven to stay true to my experiences in the hope that I can entertain someone who understands fishing and the human condition. Perhaps they are just fond memories for family members to read someday. Perhaps they will remind you of a similar experience that you will want to jot down and share with your family.
