When he became a father, he knew he wanted to pass on his love of water, fishing, and the  natural world to his daughters. Most of all, he wanted to give them hope for their future even as they were coming of age during uncertain times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs soon as they were old enough, Mark taught his girls how to read the water and see the patterns in nature. He showed them how to cast, how to catch fish and release them, and - only when needed - how to kill them.
