Silent River Run

Silent River Run Research fun gear, on-line or stocked. Preparation: mixing, matching, dots. Please, try not to harm the catches we snare; Eat less of animal flesh; And, plant lives matter, too.... Date and location decided -- she may or may not attend. Checking bait and treble hooks, egg sinkers and split shots; Swivels, bobbers, beads, jig heads and, perhaps, a friend. Minnows or night-crawlers -- my mind is set on snell knots. Catfish unknown seek Rubenesque waters of the Silent River Run..... Other cats spout boilerplate And form-letters to the drowned. August 15, 2016 It Takes Four - Poetry Contest

I agree, Charlie. Actually, those particular lines are a message to some of my Vegan friends. ;-)
