Oliver & Karasik
Oliver
Hey Karasik, I was just watching the waves and thinking about how timing the tide can make fishing feel like a perfect dance. Do you have a favorite spot where the water just whispers the right cue?
Karasik
I’ll say the old pier by the estuary, a place where the water’s pull is steady, almost like a quiet drumbeat. It’s quiet enough to hear the fish talk back.
Oliver
That sounds like a dream spot, Karasik. I love a good rhythm with the tide—feels like the ocean’s telling us its secrets. Have you ever caught a fish that seemed to dance back to you?
Karasik
Yeah, once a trout made a sharp turn right in front of the line, like it wanted to show me a quick step. I let it go, said, “That’s your cue, not mine.” It was as if the water was winking and I just kept pulling.
