"Choose your fly fishing friends wisely. They can have an effect on
how many and the size of the trout you catch. Fly fishers who spend a lot
of time fishing together will unconciously adopt some of the other's mannerisms,
choice of flies and casting techniques over time. Surrounding yourself with
great fly fishers who catch a lot of trout will help you catch more and larger
trout. However, does that mean that while you as the poorer angler improve
your fishing prowess, the better angler's fishing prowess deterioates? It
could be that as your fishing improves and your friend's deteriorates, he
reaches a point where his fishing begins to improve by watching you, the
better angler. If that is the case, somewhere along the line, both of you
will become great anglers. On the other hand, if both of you are piss poor
anglers to begin with . . . . "
