What are you fishing for?

Deb Turner had always loved fishing, but hadn’t been out for a number of years. Then she got a call from Casting for Recovery. “I’d never fly fished,” she recalled. “In fact, I think the last time that I’d gone fishing, it was with a Zebco rod for sunnies. But people kept saying that I should go.” So she did.

Being in the water proved cathartic. “I put on my waders and waded out into the river,” she continued. “It was so wonderful to be in the water, not getting wet. I was looking at the water, taking in the trees. I didn’t catch anything, but I didn’t care. As soon as I got home, I went to a local sporting goods store and bought some waders. I didn’t know what I was buying, but I knew I was going to get back out there.”
