Tree of Lures

Route 5, Mill River at the Oxbow, Northampton

Photograph and text by Deb Guiel, South Hadley

Walking over the bridge between the Mill River and the Oxbow in Northampton last month, I noticed a tree limb adorned with fishing line, hooks, sinkers and bobbers โ€” from failed attempts at casting out lines to catch fish. Using a tripod mounted DSLR camera with medium telephoto lens, I captured this image.
