Must Catch Fish!

Having just finished 7 of 8 days on the water, we've experienced 4 major changes in the weather. From a day with winds exceeding 20 mph, another with tumultuous rain squalls with imbedded waterspouts, a slick calm steamy hot day and one with thick fog having less than a 1/4 mile visibility. Though we were able to catch fish (plenty of redfish) on most of the days, it sometimes pains me to have an angler want to pursue a target species though the weather conditions don't allow it on fly tackle. A greasy shrimp would have surely closed the deal. Guess I feel they should get back to the dock having caught something for their  expense of a day on the water with me. I had the pleasure of having had a very patient angler on the bow during my last day. I struggled immensely to see the fish and allow enough time to get my fly angler to get a shot. A few fast moving showers overcame us during the morning as we blew out redfish on a leeward shoreline then draped us in a high veil of clouds during the afternoon as the bonefish scooted out from under the bow of the skiff as i overran them. For they had the advantage in the blinding glare. The day however flew by for me as Bruce and I chatted about the fishery, the strategy of catching these ghosts we could not see and life in general. After my day with my new friend, I'll have to rethink my "must catch a fish" tendency as I had the most pleasurable day with him, sans fish
