Healing Waters
Surrounded by the north woods in Central Park, I showed a veteran the
importance of the roll casts in and under trees. The roll cast and single hand rod
spey casting techniques allow the fly fisher to fish where others lose their flies.
We fished a newly restored area between The Pool and The Meer. As you can
see it looks like we are on the bank of a river but it is all man made. No flies
were lost in the trees during this session. I hope to be able to show these veterans
all the lakes and ponds of New York City.
