The water

Meramec River (Steelville) is a freestone river in Missouri, fished for smallmouth bass, trout, largemouth bass, redeye bass, panfish — rainbow, brown. On free-flowing water the trajectory is the story: falling and clearing after a bump is the window, rising water pushes fish to the banks and brings colour.
