LOVE & WATER: Flyfishing for Bass and Redfish with Riverhorse Nakadate

Riding Shotgun with Riverhorse Nakadate to go fish for Texas bass and redfish.

“A birthright will forever shape us,” Nakadate says. “Our origins, from a wee seedling to blooming souls as humans, have so much to do with where we awaken each day. What if I had been born in New York City instead of here in my cherished Texas, without these mesmerizing waters and sugar-sweet winds of the South? Who would I be? I can’t imagine─nor would I ever want to. Sense of place has found me ever desirous for endless days running wild at home.
“Looking up at the stars from a canoe as I pen a few bedtime words in this weathered journal, I get a sense of awe and wonder at the miracle of it all. There is a small fire going on the sandbar with a kettle of water for coffee; some pork chops drizzled with olive oil and rosemary, wrapped in foil, cooking in the embers and almost ready for the supper plate; and, of course, two slices of peach pie still in the cooler. No matter what happens on the path from here, I know everything will be just fine, and then some.
“Is there any chance you and I will share a few more decades together, Texas? I am forever all in.”
