Summary

Every healthy boy, every right minded man, and every uncaged woman feels, at one time or another, and maybe at all times, the impulse to go a-fishing. That is What fishes are for: to call us away from newspapers and counting rooms, school books and parlors and five-o'clock teas, out into the open of existence, where life is real and banks are green, skies are blue, and the birds sing in the branches over the water.????It does not matter much what fishes are in the streams. Still less is it essential that we should succeed in catching them.
