[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

" The indications which tell your dry-fly angler when to strike
are clear and unmistakable, but those which bid a wet-fly man raise his rod-point
and draw in the steel are frequently so subtle, so evanescent and impapalpable
to the senses, that, when the bending rod assures him that he has devined
aright, he feels an ecstasy as though he had performed a miracle each time.
"
