	Uncle Joe fished while wading the stream and I fished from the riverbank with a rod that he made for me. He had selected a sapling of suitable kind, stripped of its foliage and shaped it with his jackknife until it was flexible and resilient. It was my first fishing rod and I was very proud of it. We fished for a while with indifferent success and, although we caught only small fish, landing even the smallest of them was exciting for me.
