Fishing, (noun) \ˈfi-shiŋ\ : the sport or business of catching fish.

Here,
on an early autumn afternoon,
two men fish the wild Yakima River for trout.
The cold waters
of the Yakima catch the rays of the sun,
casting a golden hue across the ripples
and current.

The river is perfect for
floating along slowly while waiting for that bite,
that will land a fish of bragging proportions for years to come,
or it could be one that is simply delicious in the frying pan at supper time.
Perhaps both.

My husband is the fisherman of the family — I never really caught the bug. Beautiful ripples on the water. Thanks for hosting my friend.
What a lovely day on the water!
Now, this is what I call the good life. Such tranquility our of the water with pole in hand sitting with your best fishing bud. True happiness even if they catch nothing. genie
I went fishing twice last week, so I can relate! Such a peaceful activity. Lovely shot, Madge. :)
Love the striated colors of the water!
My Grandpa loved to fish. We went with him many times when I was growing up. My brother sometimes fished as well. Mostly I played In the water or helped Grandma pick greens. :)
Oh Madge I love fishing and sitting in a boat I don’t even care if I catch anything I always did this with my Mom and Dad. Great shot. B
Beautiful capture! It looks like a lovely place.
Lovely photo and creative waters with the fishermen ~ great shot! ~ carol ^_^

It looks chilly on the water this time of year.
I am really struck by the yellow shimmer on that blue surface♫ My Rurality: http://lauriekazmierczak.com/roadside-milkweed-all-afuzz/

Love he colours in the water. Love to eat fish too.

A fine fishing shot. You have a very appealing technique for fishing this river.
Looks like a time to relax and forget about the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
