Salmon Zen

Monte Burke writes in Forbes about fishing with some well known friends for Atlantic Salmon in Quebec.

We are five friends, all a long way from home here on Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula, and we're fishing for Atlantic salmon, two circumstances that tend to induce patient, drawn-out dinner table conversations.
