[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

The ancients wrote of the three ages of man, I propose to write of 
the three ages of the fisherman.

When he wants to catch all the fish he can.
When he strives to catch the largest fish.
When he studies to catch the most difficult fish he can find, 
requiring the greatest skill and most refined tackle, caring more for 
the sport than the fish.

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Hard-hitting flashing fellows these, bred and reared in no protected 
pond, but
in the cold crystal mountain waters. Any angler who has matched his 
skill with

one of Nature's trout and then with the pampered stall-fed darlings of the
intensively stocked preserve, need not be told the difference between 
the two.

When the going gets rough, go out and buy yourself a really nice fly 
rod. When it gets rougher, buy a nice reel to go with it. Rougher still 
? Buy yourself a pontoon boat or drift boat. Still rougher? Book a trip 
to Kamchatka without telling your wife. Now, my good buddy, you're FIXIN 
to find out what ROUGH is all about!

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Fish are, of course, indispensable to the angler. They give him an 
excuse for fishing and justify the fly rod without which he would be a 
mere vagrant. But the average fisherman's average catch doesn't even 
begin to justify, as fish, its cost in work, time, and money. The true 
worth of fishing, as the experienced, sophisticated angler comes to 
realize, lies in the memorable contacts with people and other living 
creatures, scenes and places, and living waters great and small which it 
provides.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

When your fly rod breaks and your fly box is bare, it's time to quit 
fishing.
Go sit in your chair. Light up your pipe. Pour some JD and drink till 
you're ripe.
Don't worry about your rod and your flies. Just sit with your buddies 
and tell fishing lies.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

 He slept with his fly rod standing in the corner next to his bed. He didn't bother taking off his shirt and pants. His vest on the bed post and his wading boots were placed where he could swing off the bed, and like a fireman ram his feet into them. His fishing hat was by his pillow. The only thing different was that he didn't have a pole to slide down to the stream.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Ordinarily the man accustomed to a 9-foot fly rod would reduce to one 
about 7 feet long and feel that he was equipped for working a small 
brook. This, I beg to point out, is only the palest concession to that 
kind of angling. If we chop 4 feet off that, however, the remaining 3 
foot length will permit casting from almost any position. I use mine 
right- or left-handed, with the tip pointing almost at the water. 
Because of the length and essentially greater line speed, the rod throws 
tight loops, which permits casting under obstacles with relative ease. 
There is no tendency to hook casts off the target, as you certainly 
must when casting with a longer rod in a purely horizontal plane.

The farther you travel to fish, the worse the fishing will be. However, it will improve immediately after you leave to return home, thus the old saying: The fishing is always better the day before you get there and the day after you leave.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY - FLY TYING FANATIC

[Jimmy D. Moore]

This is one of my more popular poems. It can also
be used as a quote.  If you'd like me to post more
of my fly fishing poems, let me know. All are 10
guaranteed to make you laugh.

Have a Goodun.

JIMMYD

A FLY  TYING  FANATIC !

Cotton balls, wine corks, tow sacks, I save'em all.
Craft beads, sparkle rope, doll's eyes, I'm walkin tall.

Mosquito net, you bet!  And it's already green, don't
have to dye it.  Just try it.  You'll see what I mean.

Sewing thread, parrot feathers, and purple yarn.
I'll use most anything, and don't really give a darn.

Closed cell foam and balsa wood. Anything goes.
Why I've even used the lint from between my toes.

Candle wax, bee's wax, ear wax, I use'em all.
Soda straws, model paint bought at the Mall.

Javalina hair belly hair from an Armadillo.
Why I even use eider down from my pillow.

Longhorn tail hair, my hair and hair from my
cats.  I'll even use belly hair from a free-tailed bat.

Black Visqueen sure makes good beetle backs.
Cut'em out, glue'em on, hang'em on the rack.

Thus is the life of a fly-tying fanatic. Could I use
the fiberglass insulation from my attic?

I throw away nuthin.  I keep all kinds of stuff.
With my kind of  fly tying, there's never enough!

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

I fished a little while ago with a man, not in his first youth, who had 
wasted the flower of his life on business and golf and gardening and 
motoring and marriage, and had in his way postponed his intiation to 
trout fishing far too long!


Arthur Ransome On Giving Advice To Beginners [1929

is the knowledge in the evening that the whole of the rest of the season

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

It is well known that no person who regards his reputation will ever 
kill a trout with anything but a fly. It requires some training on the 
part of the trout to take to this method. . . . No sportsman however, 
will use anything but the fly, except when he happens to be alone.


Charles Dudley Warner, 1862

During my addled career as a trout fisherman I have gone on a lot of 
wild-goose chases, and I ruefully expect to go on a lot more before I 
hang up my waders.

The recollection of what has been and the anticipation of what is to be; the quiet discourse of men with like tastes, of past successes and of anticipated triumphs; reminiscences of river and lake and forest and camp-fire, make up a series of prospective and retrospective pleasures akin to those experienced by the old soldier fondling his trust matchlock and “fighting his battles o’er again.”

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY XTRA

[Jimmy D. Moore]

From time to time, when I miss a day or two, I'll throw in some extra 
quotes. Hope you don't

mind.

Fishing books, lit by emotion recollected in tranquility, are like 
poetry. We do not think of them as books but as people. They are our 
companions and not only riverside. Summer and winter they are with us 
and what a pleasant company they are.


Arthur Ransome The Fisherman's Library [1959]

Twice I had the feeling, which I have talked about to other anglers and 
they have had it too, of a sudden anticipation of catching a fish so 
strong that it amounts to certainty. I suppose it is partly the harmony 
of effective presentation when everything else is auspicious, so that a 
take seems in that moment to be the only feasible conclusion. But it's 
not quit as simple as that, it's ore like a shaft of intuition. In must, 
logically, be an illusion; possible, to, you tend to remember it when it 
works and forget it when it doesn't. But, for all that, it's a curious 
experience.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Fish are, of course, indispensable to the angler. They give him an 
excuse for fishing and justify the fly rod without which he would be a 
mere vagrant. But the average fisherman's average catch doesn't even 
begin to justify, as fish, its cost in work, time, and money. The true 
worth of fishing, as the experienced, sophisticated angler comes to 
realize, lies in the memorable contacts with people and other living 
creatures, scenes and places, and living waters great and small which it 
provides.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Hard-hitting flashing fellows these, bred and reared in no protected 
pond, but in the cold crystal mountain waters. Any angler who has 
matched his skill with one of Nature's trout and then with the pampered 
stall-fed darlings of the intensively stocked preserve, need not be told 
the difference between the two.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

For the supreme test of a fisherman is not how many fish he has caught, 
not even how he has caught them, but what he has caught when he has 
caught no fish.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

If we carry purism to it's logical conclusion, to do it right {fishing} 
you'd have to live naked in a cave, hit your trout on the head with 
rocks, and eat them raw. But, so as not to violate another essential 
element of the fly-fishing tradition, the rocks would have to be 
quarried in England and cost $300 each.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

When if chance or hunger's powerful sway directs the roving trout this 
fatal way, He greedily sucks in the twining bait, And tugs and nibbles 
the fallacious meat. Now, happy fisherman; now twitch the line! How thy 
rod bends! behold, the prize is thine!


John Gay

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Last Sunday I fished up a certain river most of the day and through my 
supernal skill and encyclopedic knowledge of angling was able to take a 
dozen brook trout. If I had kept them I would have had the makings of a 
nice can of sardines.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

An outboard motor is a handy thing for a long trip to the fishing 
grounds, but what one needs for propelling a boat noislessly along the 
shoreline of a bass lake at one-half to two-thirds of a mile an hour - 
the proper speed for fly-rod fishing with bass bugs - is not an outboard 
motor, but a well-trained wife.

Re: [VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Peggy Brenner]

I can relate to this personally, for years I paddled the canoe while my 
husband Jerry fly fished.  I took up tying in '95 to save $$ as he like 
to fish the Rangley streamers that sold for a whole 1.95 at the time.


Then one day in 1997 I sold 3 houses in Lowell,MA  called a Triple hat 
trick, so I signed up and attended a Orvis endorsed fly fishing school 
out in Western MA, the rest is history as they say.

The one great ingredient in successful fly fishing is patience.
The man whose fly is always on the water has the best chance.
There is always a chance of a fish or two, no matter how hopeless
it looks. You never know what may happen in fly fishing.

Trout fishing is always the best in the hardest to reach places, those with

also where the bugs are thickest, but who cares about roads or bugs when you 
can catch big trout all day! Rough roads, bugs and good fishing go together

My wife said I have so many fly rods and reels 
that I cannot possibly use them all. My reply 
was that I had rods and reels to fish, rods 
and reels to tinker with and then my fine 
crafted rods and reels to fondle and admire, 
while dreaming of trout fishing during the 
cold winter months. You can imagine 
what kind of look she gave me.

[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[rayado]

Choose your fly fishing friends wisely. They can 
have an effect on how many and the size of the trout 
you catch. Fly fishers who spend a lot of time fishing 
together will unconciously adopt some of the other's 
mannerisms, choice of flies and casting techniques 
over time. Surrounding yourself with great fly fishers 
who catch a lot of trout will help you catch more and 
larger trout. However, does that mean that while you 
as the poorer angler improve your fishing prowess, 
the better angler's fishing prowess deterioates? It 
could be that as your fishing improves and your friend's 
deteriorates, he reaches a point where his fishing begins 
to improve by watching you the better angler. If that is 
the case, somewhere along the line, both will become great 
anglers. On the other hand, if both of you are piss poor 
anglers to begin with . . . .

As line spins off the reel of life, the years weave a crazy
quilt pattern. And it is strange how the seemingly great
things become small and the small things become great.

[Michael Bliss]

The one great ingredient in successful fly-fishing is patience.
The mans whose fly is always on the water has the best chance.
There is always a chance of a fish or two, no matter how hopeless
it looks.  You never know what may happen in fly-fishing.

[VFB] Quote 040911

[Michael Bliss]

Unless one can enjoy himself fishing with the fly, even when
his efforts are unrewarded, he loses much real pleasure.  More
than half the intense enjoyment of fly-fishing is derived from the
beautiful surroundings, the satisfaction felt from being in the
open air, the new lease of life secured thereby, and the many,
many pleasant recollections of all one has seen, heard and done.
