"Fishing
is much more than fish. It is the great occasion
when we may return to the fine simplicity of our
forefathers". Herbert Hoover
"All Americans believe that they
are born fishermen. For a man to admit a
distaste for fishing would be like denouncing
mother-love or hating moonlight." John
Steinbeck
"Whether I caught fish or not,
just the thrill of rolling out that line and
watching my fly turn over has been good enough
for me. That and the hundreds of treasured
memories I have of this wonderful sport."
Curt Gowdy
"Often
I have been exhausted on trout streams,
uncomfortable, wet, cold, briar scarred,
sunburned, mosquito bitten, but never, with a
fly rod in my hand have I been less than in a
place that was less than beautiful."
Charles Kuralt
"More than half the intense
enjoyment of fly-fishing is derived from the
beautiful surroundings, the satisfaction felt
from being in the open air, the new lease of
life secured thereby, and the many, many
pleasant recollections of all one has seen,
heard and done." - Charles F. Orvis |
