Al Campbell biography, Al Campbell discography
Day One comme au premier jour !"However, some
things haven't changed a bit.Looking back through the windows of
time, I can see the differences vividly.When I started, we
didn't carry tackle boxes but rather held all our tackle in vests or some
other type of apparel that we wore, thus freeing our arms for the task
at hand; we still do.My first fly rod was
made of hollow steel and weighed a lot.It didn't take many hours to
discover sore shoulders and wrists with that rod.Now I use modern
graphite rods and light reels (I have many), that allow me the freedom
of long days on the water without aching arms and hands.My first fly vest was an old shirt with the sleeves cut off and
sewn in on the sides as pockets.Considering the
weight of my current vest when it's fully loaded, I'm not sure that's a
good thing.My first waders were heavy rubber things with soles slippery
enough to warrant an increase in my life insurance.Some things
remain the same.My equipment is newer and
better, my flies don't draw as many laughs, my skills have increased,
and I still enjoy the sport as much now or maybe more than I did then.Do you think I'll still love the sport 20 years from now?Looking
forward through those windows I would say yes, but it's the view to
the rear that's most honest.If you would like to comment on this or any other article please feel free to
post your views on the FAOL Bulletin Board!Country
