"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 of you will become great
anglers." Now, if both of you are piss poor fly fishers . . . . . . .
