It Was In June Of 1995 Since I Last Went Fishing. I Really Can't Consider It A Pleasant Memory Because I Was Cited For Fishing Without A License. It Was A Last Minute Decision That Ended Up Costing Me 75.00.
I Thought It Was About Time I Took My Grandson AJ To My Favorite Places. The Ellsworth Dam Held A Lot Of Memories Through The Years. I Caught Many Fish There And I Wanted To Share That Experience With Him. Shortly After We Found Our Fishing Spot AJ Pointed Just A Few Feet Away A Yellow And Black Butterfly Resting On A Rock. Yellow And Black Were Bobby's Colors. AJ And I Both Knew That And I Thought How Appropriate At That Moment In Time For That Butterfly To be There At That Exact Moment. I Joked With AJ That His Uncle Bobby Was The Last One To Take Him Fishing And He Just Landed There To Tell Us It Was About Time I Took Him Fishing.
Of Course There Are People Who Don't Believe In Things Like That But I Do And I Find Comfort In That. That Butterfly Stayed On That Rock The Entire Time We Fished. How Touching For the Both Of Us That Bobby Kept Us Company During That Special Moment In Time. We Didn't Catch Anything That Day But Really It Didn't Matter Much To Me. I Have Caught Many Fish Through The Years. I Just Want The Thrill Of That To Be With AJ. No Better Feeling Than To Hook Into A Carp And Bring It To Shore. So Many Memories I Have Of Fishing With My Grandfather And Uncles. Enough To last A Lifetime.
