One can play
the piano while thinking of the morning’s mail, or one can watch a baseball
game while planning a bank robbery, but in order to fish successfully, at
any rate for the nobler species, one must give one’s whole attention to
the sport in hand. And this is the reason why a trout rod is the best magician’s
wand for exorcising the ghosts of care.
