Hillenbrand FWA
The skies were angry…overhead it had become very dark; I trained my ear to the west listening for a rumble of thunder as I made yet another long cast with my Winston 3-weight fly rod. On the other end of my fly-line was a shad popper-as it settled down upon the blackish water I watched […]
