Fishing seems to be divided, like sex, into three unequal parts: anticipation and recollection and, in between, actual performance.
Fly-fishing is the most fun you can have standing up.
I now believe that fishing is far more important than the fish.
The fish is not so much your quarry as your partner.
A trout is a moment of beauty known only to those who seek it.
...water that isn't fit for trout won't much longer be fit for us.
