    You know how sometimes things come into your life that strike a chord. Well this video is one of those things. I’m 72 and retired and just going through the motions not high or low just pretty much a flat line. I say I love fly fishing ,tying flys and camping but it has been to much effort to do them. I haven’t appreciated what I have and where I live. I have a place in the woods and live in north Idaho beautiful country and great trout streams within 30 minutes if I want blue ribbon streams or rivers it’s an hour. This video has caused me to stop and think what am I doing. I have made a shift in how I’m going to do things from now on. Thank you so much for putting this on KZread.

    "I'm 73 and I think motion, activity, is the lubricant of life." I'm not sure I've ever heard more profound words in a single sentence. This is just a fantastic short documentary. I could watch this man for hours on end.

    I'm 56. In my life I've had cancer, several strokes, a few heart attacks, and almost eight years ago, a heart transplant. Like yourself, I never stop. Like Burgess Meredith said in Grumpy Old Men, "Life's about the experiences." Or, like Tim McGraw wrote in that song dedicated to his dad, "Live like you're dying." Also, like yourself, I think of all the things worth knowing, discovering, and I for one, want leave this place with my cup overflowing. I'm an attorney, but if a person asked me what would be my epitaph, I should hope it should at least include something about salmon, trout, campfires and pointers.

    This is an amazing short film! I randomly stumbled upon this video and it was like I was seeing a ghost when I seen Dayle. Ive fished this same area and met Dayle once when I was walking back to my truck and had no idea he had such a fascinating life. He picked me and my friend up and dropped us off at my car. I remember thinking wow that was nice of him because we had a couple mile walk back. Unfortunately all we had time for was your every day banter about fishing. Thanks for giving more insight on his life. Maybe one of these days ill book a day of fishing with him.
