AASA :: Fishing Blindly for Quality Teaching


AASA :: Fishing Blindly for Quality Teaching:

"Once a year I fish the shallow waters known as the “flats” off the Florida Keys.


I fish with a guide who has more expertise than I do in several areas, not the least of which is the ability to see and identify fish swimming in the clear, shallow waters.

A good guide can spot a fish 50 yards away and tell you what kind of fish it is.

This is the first and absolutely critical step in catching the fish — the ability to see it in the first place. If you don’t know what you are looking for, the game is over!"
