A Deliberate Life

Buenas!

Finalmente resolvi postar algo aqui no fórum, apesar de acompanha-lo há tempos e conhecer uma galerinha pessoalmente!

Vamos ao que interessa, algum tempo atrás a Orvis postou os seguintes vídeos em seu blog...

http://www.orvisnews.com/FlyFishing/A%20Deliberate%20Life%20DVD%20Available%20for%20PreOrder%20Now.aspx

A Deliberate Life, achei extraordinário! Está em fase de pré-venda, mas promete!

Tenho formação em Filosofia o que me ajudou a enxergar, ao longo da minha vida de pesca com mosca, diversas situações que provocam uma reflexão filosófica sobre o que estamos fazendo quando pescamos com mosca. Na escolha dos equipamentos e do local de pesca, no atado, nas pesquisas de entomológicas, nas parcerias, nas viagens e, finalmente, no momento em que o mosqueiro está sozinho no meio da natureza simplesmente... pescando...

O vídeo parece trazer um pouco disso!

E temos alguns clássicos que se propuseram a refletir sobre o assunto...

"I fish because I love to; Because I love the environs where trout are found, which are invariably beautiful, and hate the environs where crowds of people are found, which are invariably ugly; Because of all the television commercials, cocktail parties, and assorted social posturing I thus escape; Because, in a world where most men seem to spend their lives doing things they hate, my fishing is at once an endless source of delight and an act of small rebellion; Because trout do not lie or cheat and cannot be bought or bribed or impressed by power, but respond only to quietude and humility and endless patience; Because I suspect that men are going along this way for the last time, and I for one don't want to waste the trip; because mercifully there are no telephones on trout waters; Because only in the woods can I find solitude without loneliness; Because bourbon out of an old tin cup always tastes better out there; Because maybe one day I’ll catch a mermaid;And, finally, not because I regard fishing as being so terribly important but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant - and not nearly so much fun."

Robert Traver

Quero ver se me animo a escrever um artigo sobre o assunto... Tentar relacionar alguns filósofos (Artistóteles, Sêneca, Marco Aurélio, etc.), escritores de fly (Traver, McGuane, Walton, etc.) e nossa experiência com a pesca com mosca.

Enfim, aproveitem, degustem, curtam, usufruam, desfrutem essa coisa que fazemos e que nos uniu enquanto amantes da pesca com mosca!

Grande Abraço!
