[Richard Zieger]

" 'Over the years,' he once wrote,'great minds have brooded about whether fishermen were crazier than golfers.' There is much to be said for both sides.  Golfers spend hours knocking an innocent little ball across the landscape, often getting wet and numb in the process, and return home with nothing to show for their efforts.  Fishermen, on the other hand, spend hours dragging an innocent herring through the water, often getting wet and numb in the process, often getting wet and numb in the process, and return home with nothing to show for their efforts. On successful days in both sports, joy reign supreme because the participant has triumphed through enormous sill, but at leas the fisherman's rush comes from outsmarting something that has a nervous system."   "Moose Dropping & Other Crimes Against Nature"    edited by Tom Brennan   Rick
