A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work.
There is certainly something in angling that tends to produce a serenity of the mind.
An angler is a man who spends rainy days sitting around on the muddy banks of rivers doing nothing because his wife won't let him do it at home.
The best way to a fisherman's heart is through his fly.
I love fishing. You put that line in the water and you don't know what's on the other end. Your imagination is under there.
Even if you've been fishing for three hours and haven't gotten anything except poison ivy and sunburn, you're still better off than the worm.
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.
