"I can remember back when I started fishing with my Dad. How much fun and excitement there was; the two of us spending time together in the great outdoors. At times, I can still feel the hot and humid air and see the 'heat' lightning during the dark nights we would spend on an Ohio reservoir fishing for bullheads and channel cats. I vividly remember my Dad, my sister and brother, and I walking the tall grassy shoreline of an unnamed farm creek; casting into any deep hole for a sunfish, bass, or chub. The memories of the annual trips that my Dad, my Uncle John, and I would take to Canada and fish for walleyes always crack a smile. I often daydream of the autumn squirrel hunts in the big hickory, oak and beech woods of east Ohio with my Dad and Mr. Barrick; and there are moments I can still hear the long drawn out bawl of my beagle hounds; Rascal and Rebel, as they bring a cottontail down along the old stone fence in a farmstead apple orchard. I feel the excitement of a twelve year old boy as the rabbit moves closer and the baying becomes louder. Oh yes, there are the long walks in the damp April woods, searching for the delectable morel mushroom among violets and big leafed may apples. How important those early adventures were to me and even more, the memories now. Those early outdoor forays shaped my life and have allowed me to live this life that I do!"
