 . . . the fisherman fishes. It is at once an act of humility and a small
 rebellion. And it is something more. To him his fishing is an island of
 reality in a world of dreams and shadow.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Successful fly fisHing for trout is an act of high deceit; not only must the 
angler lure one of nature's subtlest and wariest creatures, he must do so with 
something that is false and no good - an artificial fly.  Thus fake and sham 
lie at the heart of the enterprise.  The amount of machiavellian subtlety, 
guild and sly deception that ultimately becomes wrapped up in the person of an 
experienced trout fisherman is faintly boring to contemplate... . . to be 
continued tomorrow.
