"Izaak Walton wrote in 1653: 'He that hopes to be a good angler must not
only bring an inquiring, searching, observing wit; but he must also
bring a large measure of hope and patience.' In these days of
hard-fished waters, ethics and philosophy play an ever increasing role
in our enjoyment, and to Father Walton's measure of hope and patience,
let us add the spice called charity."
Ernest G. Schwiebert, Jr "Matching the Hatch" [1955]
