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.

Floating down the stream?

A bag of bobbers.

In early morning
anxious fish are awaiting
the autumn school bells.

and hands-free fishing.

The ignorant fish -
Unaware of keepers of...
Life's aquarium.

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.
