Creek Fishing. No Luck So Far.

As I went to the Post Office to mail Flat Stanley http://365project.org/grammyn/365/2016-04-21 I noticed this man sitting by the creek. I didn't want to stop but thought he might make a nice picture for the day. When I returned he was still there so I pulled into a parking place and got a few pictures of him. His wife ? was sitting nearby watching .

love ya bunches dad♥

That's what fishing is all about - deep in thought! If a fish bites he will probably get such a fright, he will fall in!

[Amanda Powell]

Nice shot!! I don't like fishing like that. I want to be guaranteed a catch!!! Lol

[Dyan Stevens]

Great narrative shot. Love the tilt of the rod. He's used to it you can tell, but it's nice to sit!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I think half of the time they just like sitting there don't mind if they never catch a thing.

[summerfield]

[Karen Mitchell]

Really fun shot of this scene... Good job. The light seems so bright and sunny.

[DaVette]

He was actually jig fishing for craw dads

Super composition.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

May be peaceful.... May be frustrating. Depends I guess on the person and day. Great catch

@darylo thanks so much. It was a relatively cool day too.
@olivetreeann you are so right. sometimes the contemplative time is what is really about.
@summerfield thanks bunches. This one was easy because I was a good ways away but I did worry his wife might turn around and see me.
