hook line and haiku (Remove filter)
Haikus: Exerpt #4 from: Hook, Line & Haiku
Breaching the surface
largemouth jumps up to see if...
It can hold its breath.
The pregnant fishes
lounge upon the riverbed
waiting to give birth.
Dancing smallmouth bass
pirouettes around boat
looking for handouts.
Learning never ends!
For even the fish will stay...
Forever in school.
Protective coating:
Slimy perspective to us;
Life saving to them.

Haikus: Exerpt #3 from: Hook, Line & Haiku
Hasta la pasta?
Annoying filament knots
of spaghetti spools.
The squeals of delight
flow from all fishing children
with uncontained joy.
Sounds of spinning spools
always brings me much comfort,
for I'm not at work.
Floating down the stream?
Not a dream, after dropping...
A bag of bobbers.
In early morning
anxious fish are awaiting
the autumn school bells.

Haikus: Exerpt #2 from: Hook, Line & Haiku
Lures, flies and spinners
provide variety for
multiple techniques.
Casting carefree lines
the sportsmen and women look...
For fishy hook-ups.
Moonlight over pines -
Adds a touch of elegance
to nighttime fishing.
Daytime sea trollers
combine leisure travel
and hands-free fishing.
The ignorant fish -
Unaware of keepers of...
Life's aquarium.

Haikus: Exerpt #1 from: Hook, Line & Haiku
Cool flowing waters
cater me with plenty of...
Aquatic playmates.
Smallmouth and largemouth -
Either kind acceptable,
if they are landed.
Get them in the boat!
Fishing stories without proof
are just plain-faced lies.
Imitating bugs?
Fishing is an art form of...
Posing as insects.
The splashing fishes
are vying for attention
during school's recess.
