"The joy of owning fine tackle is so great that it is often difficult to
distinguish between basic needs and the urge to possess that which
delights the sensitivities. I have preached against indulgence, but in
truth I am a sentimental moron when it comes to fishing tackle. How can
one find adequate words to describe the sweet feel of a rod that makes
casting an esthetic delight, yet which adds little to one's ability to
catch fish?"
Taken from "The Philosophical Fisherman" by Harold Blaisdell
(1969-Houghton Mifflin)
Now I don't feel a bit of over indulgence, do you?
Have A Great Day!
