Unless one can enjoy himself fishing with the fly, even when his efforts are unrewarded, he loses much real pleasure. More than half the intense enjoyment of fly-fishing is derived from the beautiful surroundings, the satisfaction felt from being in the open air, the new lease of life secured thereby, and the many, many pleasant recollections of all one has seen, heard and done.
Author: Charles F. Orvis, 1886 - Founder Orvis Company

No one could have said it better! I see so much "combat" these day on the river; people sloshing all over the place, rapid casting here and there, no consideration for others, etc. Of course rivers are more crowded now than in 1886, but still--slow down and enoy the time out there!
Howdy, Stranger!
