[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

"The game of [nods] is played by tying a reasonable facsimile of the 
insect being taken by a trout.  Then many variations of this basic 
pattern are tied with only slight differences in each of them.  These 
are in turn cast to a visible feeding trout, and its reaction is noted 
very carefully . . . Each fly is cast as long as it receives a nod from 
the trout.  When it no longer excites any nods it is discarded for a new 
variation."   (sounds like a game Hans and Henk would play)

"Being able to read trout streams is just as valuable to a 
fly fisherman as the ability to read a defense is to a Quarterback."
