You showed a youngster the joys of catching a fish, and his joy could lead to a life long angler with a passion for preserving cold water habitats. <br /><br />Furthermore, you also embrace the nitty, gritty work like cleaning the banks. Then you go a step further and address the water issues here in the West. Being an active, outspoken letter writer is also part of being a good steward. At the heart of it, that is what TU is all about, stewardship.<br /><br />Great post, RD. I can tell it was written from the heart.<br /><br />-stephanieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12081984259159466260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934936932021151476.post-32079762238293619392011-06-16T11:57:12.274-06:002011-06-16T11:57:12.274-06:00I hate to say this ( because I'm in it, too) b...I hate to say this ( because I'm in it, too) but this is the best post yet IMHO.
