"Perhaps some of my viewpoints will be considered radical to those who
consider technical skill above anything else. I bow to their skill, admire
it, wish I were in the same class with them. But underneath I am still the
instinctive, natural fisherman of my boyhood and from this angle the nine
rules mention seem most important. It seems to me that the fundamentals are
the necessities and the other things are accessories which aid in bolstering
the fundamentals. Once the fundamentals become instinctive you can
elaborate to good advantage. But to start out with the highly technical
ideas without the groundwork of lowly experience is to start wrong. It is
putting the cart before the horse."
