We listened to the radio while driving home from a weekend’s fishing at
the Colorado River near Marble Falls. Charlie Pride was singing “Roll on
Mississippi. Roll on big River. You. make me feel like a child again.
In dry clothes again we were warm the car heater blew strongly. The
smell of white bass lingered on our hands but it was a good smell. And in the
darkness with the truck’s wheels rolling steadily Charlie Pride’s song
touched me to reminiscing.
“Roll on big River. You make me feel like a child again.
Flashes of the past the big water fishing and the people who were part of it
ran through my thoughts. I flowed with them.
There was Pine Creek of northern Pennsylvania. It’s a river out of a boys
fantasy. Gently flowing through smoky hemlock mountains it rambles
when it reaches the Oswayo rapids near the upstream end of Pa Grand
Canyon. It is a storied river of large brown trout and its tributaries harbor
emerald and ruby colored brook trout. There are black bear white tail deer
and chestnut-tinted turkeys along its banks and there are remains of mans
past. It’s a playground for an exploring youth.
We floated Pine Creek when I was twelve starting at the meadow-like
townette of Ansonia and traveled down through the canyon past a mountain
village called Tiadoton. We pulled out on the smooth round-rocked shore of
Blackwell.
Our yellow rafts bobbed over the riffles and glided through the pools.
High waterfalls dropped to the water on both sides. They were caused by
rainwater freshets cascading down cliff walls. Mist rose from evergreens in
mysterious columns like smoke from a heavy campfire.
When the sun peaked the mountains and sent rays of clean light to the
pebbly bottom thousands of big yellowish mayflies emerged from the
water and trout and fallfish started feeding heavily. They ignored our metal
offerings. They wanted insects. It was one of the more pleasant of memories
with my father.
“Roll on big river.”
My daydreams switched to the Yellowstone River and its cutthroat trout.
There was a moose feeding in the backwater on the far side when a family in
a car pulled over along the road to watch us fish. They spoke with a heavy
New York City accent.
“Lookit da bear!” the couple’s son yelled.
The moose lifted its massive head from the water as if to look for the bear.
There was none.
“Dat ain’t no bear” the father said.
“Sure it is” the kid said again “Lookit the bear!”
The moose put its head back in the water and continued to feed on the
river weed.
“You make me feel like a child again.”
Glimpses of other streams passed by like signs along the road fading into
the lights of the truck and then quickly disappearing. We came to a redlight
and a lovely young lady in a sports car pulled alongside. We smiled to each
other. Childhood memories were stored until another day’s fishing would
summon them pleasantly forth. Adult thought took over. The light changed
and we moved on.
