A Rainy Day is OK
Weather impediment yields lessons in overlooked fishing opportunity

Success is less contingent upon what life deals you than it is upon how you respond to it. Cast in point: I joined a handful of pro anglers and representatives from PRADCO Outdoors for what was scheduled as a two-day stretch of fishing, interviews and copious picture taking. As it turned out, we got in about a day and a quarter of work, as the tail end of a brutal storm system swept across Arkansas' Lake Ouachita and rained out most of day one.

Disappoint, yes; but what was taken turned out to be a good trade for what was given - a lesson in making good use of life's frequent delays.
