Red, White, and Brookies

Tomorrow morning I’m waking up early and going fishing.

I’ll get to drive on well-maintained interstate highways and state roads. A wide assortment of breakfast options will be available for me to choose from. The forest that I’ll be walking into is public and free to access.

Freedom has its perks; even in the small things.

Of course, the freedom that I experience as a citizen of the United States of America wasn’t cheap. It was costly. Countless lives were lost, and perhaps even more were spent securing a way of life that is unlike anything known in history. That is worth celebrating, appreciating, and acknowledging.

Fly fishing for brook trout in the Commonwealth of Virginia seems like an appropriate way to do all of those things. So that is what I’ll do.

However you spend your fourth of July, Happy Independence Day from Casting Across.
