Fishing tales
From time to time I have new comrades in fishing trips, and this, of course, is good in principle. But for some time now I have been making the choice of travel companions very carefully. The arrival of spring generates optimism and new sentiments. Once I nevertheless decided to take one colleague on a fishing trip, but then, to be honest, I regretted it. I have already had to be a nanny, a shepherd in the forest and on the pond. But what happened this time exceeded all my expectations. We took with us one rubber boat for two and went on for a day.
At the beginning of May, not all water bodies opened up from ice, but the areas with clean water were quite significant. Roach spawning has begun. At this time, she is near the coast, in the reeds or on the ridges. Given the spring thaw, we were both in rubber boots. But on the shore, my partner immediately began to amaze me. Before getting into the boat, he took off his boots, pulled out boots with galoshes from his backpack and pulled them on his feet.
"How will he get into the boat, - I thought. - After all, you have to go knee-deep into the water?"
And as if hearing my dumb question, my partner said:
- And you will take me there.
It can't be helped, I had to carry it. By this time, I already dimly realized that my surprise had not yet come to an end. Having the experience of fishing only on donkey spinning rods with a heavy load (lead-spoon), he began to flop this load into the water to the right and left of the boat. It became clear that we should forget about biting and calm fishing. Fishing on a float was clearly contraindicated for him. Finally, after convincing my partner to change the way of fishing, I gave him a short winter rod to fish right from under the boat. Having played with the jig, he began to rock the boat, explaining that the boat is swinging, the fishing rod lying on the cylinder of the boat is also, and, therefore, the jig, lowered into the water, is playing.
In the evening, without catching anything, we approached the shore. I jumped into the water, and my partner, clinging to the neck, asked for the handles. Everything would have been fine if he hadn't kicked off the boat. We both crashed into the icy water. It was very funny for me, but not very much for my partner. Apparently, he believed that I was to blame for everything. And I already realized that I would have to endure his eccentricities until the very end of fishing.
Having dried up by the fire, we boiled porridge and boiled tea. And then it appeared from the partner's backpack, what would you think? Antique case with a set of fine silver spoons. My eyes widened in surprise - I had never seen anything like this on a fishing trip. The partner, however, said that all famous personalities used silver on campaigns, and cited Timur, Alexander the Great and Caesar as examples. Further more. His cup was indeed made of porcelain and, surprisingly, he did not forget the saucer with it. I was no longer surprised when he took out a silver strainer from a small bag, declaring that he loved comfort and convenience in everything.
In the morning, the partner stripped down to his underpants and began to do gymnastics, squatting and running through the clearing, and then went to the icy water for washing and rubbing. After brushing his teeth, he began to shave and only then began to drink tea, carefully chewing on a sandwich.
On the train on the way home, I didn’t doze, but thought. My colleague did not fit into the familiar look of our Russian fishermen. It had something of famous classic characters like Dr. Watson. Yes, in Russia there are still bright individuals, although not very often.

The day when Vadim and I, my constant fishing companion, went to Ladoga, turned out to be sunny, but cold and very windy. When we got out onto the open ice, we immediately felt how much it was blowing out. And although we were going to fish exclusively with jigs and spinners, Vadim suddenly changed his mind and said:- I don’t want to freeze, sitting motionless, I’ll catch it on the zippers.
