Each respectable fly fisherman is supposed to be proficient in tying all the correct knots. When I attempt to use my finger to tie the "nail knot" it gets caught every single time. The old trustworthy "clinch knot" somehow becomes a slip knot. Now what kind of knot do I use to tie the fly onto the tippit?

How about the Palomar? Shucks, I could tie that in my sleep...if I could only find what happened to the fly. Ouch, it got stuck in my finger! And so it goes with bird nests in the line, hung up on a branch, what's subsequent? I can't count the times I have almost lost my religion trying to get the finish of a almost invisible fly line via the suitable loop with the right twist.

Pardon me, if I see a close parallel between fishing and moral dilemmas. Do you ever feel all tied up in knots by the thunderous negatives of your moral code? "THOU SHALT NOT..." Fellow fisher I have identified the fishing improved when I replace "thou shalt not," with "thou shalt."

Read your Fishing Manual: for each and every negative prohibition there is a positive affirmation. The Fisherman of Galilee taught us to accentuate the positive even if we can't eliminate the negative. "Thou shalt really like your neighbor as oneself." Oh yes, there are times when we want to slam the door of temptation with a decisive "no". Trust me, I was a perfectionist too long, attempting to cross all the "T"s and dot all the "I"s. I know from encounter how binding that can be.

You know what I've decided, colleague of the catch? I'm going to lubricate my line with a positive attitude. When I find myself spiraling down into negativism you know what I do? Thought you would in no way ask: I take a youngster fishing the old fashioned way, with a bobber and a worm. My concern is not just to catch fish but to make it a enjoyable time for the kid with snacks and stories.
