    I crept through the long grass on the aproach to their campsite and yelled 'FISH & GAME OFFICER,Licences please!' fuck they shit themselves but I knew they were all licenced.


    I hit the river and first cast hooked and landed a small rainbow using a monkey fly which is the closest replica of a cicada.

    Looks messy but the trout recovered after asking the lads if they want breakfast and they weren't starving so it was released.
    You might as well have thown that fish in the bushes as it has about zero chance of survival. All the sand and dirt will remove any protection and it will die of infection or shock.
    Not a dig. Just what I have learnt.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
