Then they launch into the current. They swim to the top. They wrestle with their skeletons. When the great bugs finish with the ordeal, they fly. In the middle of the stream, I lift my sight to the horizon. Armada. Too many to see with my two eyes. A tight formation, hovering while I wobble over the rocks. 45 �GRASSHOPPER Chad Hanson He watched Robert Redford’s adaptation of A River Runs Through It. Then he bought a fly rod. He spent twenty-four years chasing trout. He searched for fish, but he also went in search of authenticity. He wanted something simple and untainted by television commercials. Now his knees hurt. His parents are gone and he looks sad. He no longer catches fish on hooks to stave off the decay of our culture. He catches grasshoppers, instead. After he finds ten of them he rides his bike to a bridge over the Henry’s Fork. One by one, he drops the hoppers into the current and one-by-one trout rise up to eat them. 61 �FLY FISHING FROM A SEVENTEEN STORY WINDOW Chad Hanson From a hotel room in Seattle, in a dream before the dawn, I swish my fly rod over streets, rooftops, and city parks. I sail my line over the green carpet of leaves that coat the Emerald City. Fish swim up between the trees. Scales become parrot feathers. Fins turn into airplane wings. A school is a flock and the sky is full of rainbow trout. They follow my lead, but they don’t find a hook. In this dream 1 am simply conducting. 77 � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
