“I have never cared about setting world records, or filling my boat with fish, or, for that matter, even catching fish. I go for the experience of spending six hours in the arms of the ocean, never thinking of a single thing except chasing fish.”
“Don’t even think about it.You’ll never catch that big fish with your small hook.”
“Even if I were trying to catch a husband I would never fish in shallow waters.”
“The fish in the creek said nothing. Fish never do. Few people know what fish think about injustice, or anything else.”
“All these anglers who claim that catching fish is secondary, that it’s the trip and being outdoors that counts, they are just liars! If you go fishing, you want to catch fish! If the fish didn’t matter, you might as well stay on the beach barbecuing sausages.”
“If a fish feels sad when a fisherman’s boat is sinking, and that fish owns a priceless treasure: The compassion! Have compassion, even for your enemies!”
