JM: My Dog, The Angler

A few weeks ago, I decided to take Jimmy James on our first real fishing trip – an annual four-day excursion with my brother and some friends.  I’ve always had the impression that dogs and fishing didn’t mix. They disturb the water and interfere in good casting. I was prepared to leave Jimmy James in his kennel in the camper if he seemed inclined to be a pain or bother anyone. But when we stopped at the first hole, Jimmy James took up a position just to my right as if he’d been here, with me, many times before. He put his front feet at water’s edge and sat down. His eyes followed the fly as I started false casting to let line out. The fly finally hit the water and Jimmy James’ eyes settled on it and watched it drift slowly/ John MacDonald , New West.
