Fishing in the rain

Fishing in the rain simply must be experienced to be appreciated. Standing in the middle of a tree lined valley stream while a light shower falls around you, distorting the surface of the water and hiding predator from prey, prey from predator... combined with the smell of ozone wafting across your olfactory receptors... not being able to feel the difference between having your hand out of the water or under the water because you're so wet...looking up once in a while just long enough to feel the drops of water that have traveled for thousands of feet from the clouds splash against your skin...is a really pleasant load to the senses.

That sounds beautiful but you know what... one day a big fish is going to come along, Jonah. ;)
