English Proverb:

"If you swear, you will catch no fish."

 

"The thing about fishing,' the Old Man said,'is not how many fish you catch or what kind of fish. I, for one, think that making a hardheaded profession out of fishing is a waste of time,because a fish is only a fish, and when you make a lot of work out of him you lose the whole point of him."

Robert Ruark, 'The Old Man and the Boy'

!!@#$%&^ , &@&^%^@# , *((&&%%$$#!!!!

"Slamr", proving the first proverb dead wrong. Shows what the English knew about fishing for Muskies.

"I remember not the past...I struggle to perceive the present...I dare not think ahead"...

Sponge under siege, 04-05-03 A.D., spoken in utter anquish
and duress while under attack from family members while casually
mentioning another out of town fishing expedition...

"If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. "
--Doug Larson

"Poets talk about "spots of time", but it is really the fishermen who experience eternity compressed into a moment. No one can tell what a spot of time is until suddenly the whole world is a fish and the fish is gone. I shall remember that son of a bitch forever."

Norman Maclean
