[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY

[Jimmy D. Moore]

"Lest the reader become too discouraged let me say that one can fish beautifully with a rod that is not perfection, but at the expense of undue physical exertion. For years I fished with what I now realize were very poor rods, but I found that I could place a fly as accurately as the next man, and execute the curve cast and other necesssities of fly fishing. Only when I acquired the unusually excellent rod I speak of, was I aware of the greater ease with which these things could be done." 

"Any Luck?" by Eugene Connett, 3rd (1933 Windward House)
