The spring outbreak is here!  Be careful out there and learn to recognize the symptoms…

Symptoms: Continual complaints as to the need for fresh air, sunshine, running water and relaxation. Blank expression, often deaf and blind to family. Frequent checking of tackle catalogs. Wanders around sporting goods stores. Frequent, secret late-night phone calls to fishing pals. Mumbles to self. Lies to everyone.

Treatment: Disease is rarely fatal.  No medication has been found effective.  Victim should go fishing as often as possible to alleviate severity of symptoms.  NO KNOWN CURE.

Remember: Restored streams, wetlands and lakes are known to reduce symptoms.  To learn more about the value of your backyard’s water resources (seriously) contact the Trout Headwaters team.
