"A" is apparel

Ennis and Jack wore cowboy apparel on their "fishing" trips:  cowboy boots, cowboy hats, blue jeans, and western-style shirts.

"B" is boot

Jack was all excited when Alma gave Ennis the boot.


He thought they could become kings of the road and not have to take to the hills anymore.

Ennis had to miss his scheduled fishing trip with Jack in August of 1982 but offered Don Wroe's cabin in November as collateral.

Jack and Ennis manage to steal time together over the years in the guise of fishin' trips that aren't.

Ennis modified the pan of his pickup for carrying horses, instead of hauling a horse trailer.

"I" is intoxicatingly

Although much drinking of whiskey occurred on the fishin' trips, their brief time together was intoxicatingly beautiful.
