    Taking My Neice and Nephew Fishing

    My neice and nephew are young adults who have never been fishing and live in Atlanta. I took them today and managed to get away from the crowds and the Chit Show. It was fun watching them catch big hybrids and spotted bass. It was the first time they every went fishing. I think they are hooked. There was some collateral damage, a spinning rod went overboard and my niece somehow broke the cable on my ultrex when I tried to teach her how to work it. But it was worth it to see how happy it made them. I forgot how much fun it is watching people catch fish for the first time.

    "The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments
