KICK- INSTALLMENT #3

Kick opened a can of beer, took a drink, and set it down on a flat rock a few feet from the water. He knelt down on one knee as he fingered through the clutter of his tackle box looking for a surface lure that resembled a frog. He had experienced good luck with that a few days earlier and wanted to try it again. Finding it, he straightened up and carefully attached it to the end of his fishing line. Then, taking a few steps toward the lake, he sent the frog singing out over the water with an expert flick of the wrist. It landed neatly beyond a clump of reeds, and Kick let it sit for a few seconds before slowly reeling it in. Fishing was Kick’s great passion. It was Kick’s passion for fishing that led him to buy “Gone Fishin’ Bait & Tackle” from Jimmy Rich back in ’89 when he retired and moved to Florida.
