Gone Fishing with Paul and Bob

just two men who fish for leisure

I have no idea why I love it, yet

it has become my guilty pleasure

 

Two men with health problems

fishing together from a grassy bank

sharing banter and their life stories

enjoying playing silly childish pranks

 

Together they travel Great Britain

visiting the most beautiful countryside

Rivers, streams, canals and lakes

a journey of discovery far and wide

 

From summer through to spring

showcasing Mother Natures creations

Wildlife, birds, fish and insects

filmed on scenic waterside locations

 

Sparkling, crystal clear waters

mist rising in the early morning

Mirror images of sky and trees

as a brand new day is dawning

 

Stunning early evening sunsets

cast a shimmering golden glow

Light ripples on a tranquil lake

distant meandering rivers flow

 

Paul has the patience of a saint

Bob is like a giddy, childish boy

They share a hobby and a passion

their friendship brings such joy

 

Gone Fishing my guilty pleasure

it brings a smile to my face

For half an hour each week

Gone fishing is my happy place
