    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home. ~Roderick Haig-Brown, Fisherman's Spring, 1951

    Lee,

    Maybe Kevin will put some quotes up. Sometimes he stands in for Rick when he's away. Here's one for you .

    "...try sight casting to one or two pound bluegill in a clear spring pond with a two-weight rod, 13 ft. 7x leader and #18 scuds. I did recently and had a harder time with these small permits than any four pound rainbow or brown. I sight cast to 18 or 20 bluegills, spooked all but six...and landed two pug-faced fish in the pound-plus class."
    - Dave Whitlock

    "People have been fishing for centuries. Two thousand years ago Cleopatra fished with Mark Antony. She catered to her lover's whims to the extent that she would have a servant swim underwater and place a fish on Antony's crude hook when the fishing was poor. She wanted to hold him, and she did." .. Jim Gasque.. Bassfishing..1945

    I'm not missing Rick. Talked to him, and he promised me some flies this afternoon.

    "Fishing always reaches its peak at a time when the bugs are thickest. And bugs are thickest at the places where fishing is best...So whenever and whereever you enjoy good fishing you can expect to find mosquitoes, black flies, midges, or deerflies, all lusting for your life's blood."

    H. G. Tapply, 1964

    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.
