In 1972 shad fisherman Ron Ingolds gave us free shad for Clearwater's first
shad festival. Ingolds lives in Edgewater, New Jersey, just south of the
George Washington Bridge, and carries on his father's fishing tradition.
He introduced me to the wonders of setting the nets at slack tide before
flood and taking them in at slack tide before ebb, six hours later. He and
a few helpers live on the waterfront for a month, only snatching a few hours
sleep at a time. I wrote these words for him and his helpers, using an old
German melody.
