DON'T THINK I'VE USED THIS ONE BEFORE, ED. ROTF ! HAPPY FOURTH EVERYBODY
"They argue about level lines and tapered, about heavy tackle or light,
about whther you ought to fish upstream or down, about a single built
rod or a double built. They get nasty the minute anybody says anything
about balance -- that's like dynamite to 'em -- and I've seen 'em almost
start a fight over whether Henshall designs were as good as Miss
Austen's. After I've listened to them awhile I think they all ought to
get a cane pole and garden hackle and go down to the stream someday the
way they did when they were kids. It might do 'em some good, and I bet
they'd have a swell time, too" "You're right, George, " I said. "All the
tackle in the world won't give a fisherman a good time if he's not built
for it."
