BONEDALE FISHING REPORT #2

THESE STORIES ARE A MESSAGE OF HOPE

I have cameras galore and God knows I have the stories, so let’s go catch baby Tarpon. Some of the stories are page thirteen, but the main thing is–put the fun back in fishing. You guys have only seen the first part of the show. Copi is going to publish some photos, but we need to convince everyone there’s still hope for this valley. Hell, all I need is someone to hang out and a tape recorder. We have high-definition cameras for filming this summer. I hope to be guiding and spending time with friends and fishing with my son. I’m blessed I have the flexibility. One of my buddies from the old Taylor Creek days shot Chris Davenport’s Ski the 14ers project. His uncle took a hit in Vietnam and is the most incredible paraplegic fishermen you’ve ever seen. The real story is how great the fishing is on the Fork and that we have a chance to save it and that the guides need the work. This is a vehicle to help save the drainage, and we can do it. All we need is someone who can type, because I have a story to tell and you’ve only heard the opening scene. God puts people in my life for a reason, and we need a message of hope. I know we can tell this story and afterwards, people can take it or leave it. I need time to laugh, as does our entire nation. I know RA Beattie and his stepdad who owns Stren. Remember there are only three good fishing movies and people need entertainment. Come over and we’ll fish and talk and take our sons to drive-in movies at the Skyvue Theatre in Delta, or the theater in scenic BONEDALE. See if you can find The Point! by Harry Nilsson–it’s a great animated film that showed in 72’ at the Crystal Theatre. WE CAN DO THIS. Then we can make any kind of fishing movie we want, and we won’t have to sell scrap metal to make a living, and I can row a boat and fish. I’m already starting to book up for the summer and want to donate more trips to charity. Remember the crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe. Let’s have fun and make some art. We can do this my friends, and the time is now. I have been doing nothing but sitting at the WORLD HEADQUARTERS and wondering what to do next. I want to stay in fifth grade forever, and time is our most precious commodity. We got a bunch of the boys from Alpine Angling on the water the other day, and they were laughing pretty hard, but they need time too. The hawg is in the tunnel, so let’s roll. Your crazy friend and fellow guide who hates to type and loves to talk.
