TO GO FISHING
"To go fishing is the chance to wash one's soul with pure air, with the rush of the brook, or with the shimmer of the sun on blue water. It brings meekness and inspiration from the decency of nature, charity toward tackle-makers, patience toward fish, a mockery of profits and egos, a quieting of hate, a rejoicing that you do not have to decide a darned thing until next week. And it is discipline in the equality of men -- for all men are equal before fish" ...Herbert Hoover

If I remember Hoover was a dedicated fly fisherman. He certainly had a good philosophy towards the sport. Nice post!

That certainly is a mouthful and so true.

Very well said. Someone said that we fish our whole lives not knowing that it’s not the fish we’re after. I call that a sensible contradiction.
