I don't deny that I get excited, but that's what happens when you're passionate about what you do.
Game fish are too valuable to be caught only once.
The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?
The fish you release maybe a gift to another, as it may have been a gift to you.
Why does a salmon rise? Why does a small boy cross the street just to kick a tin can?
Catching fish is not a mental game between fish and angler. A 'smart' trout is only smarter than other trout, not smarter than a fisherman. An angler must take the puzzle of the day's conditions, and matching those conditions and his knowledge of the fish come up with a good catch. He competes with a concept, not with a fish's brain.
There will be no end to angling controversies for there is no one best way for everyone to fish.

And it shouldn't be considered extra. It shouldn't be considered something that can be "cut. " It shouldn't be something that's in danger of going away. The idea that we're even thinking about cutting that off because somebody else isn't enjoying it themselves or somebody has extreme opinions about it is worrisome to me.
I think I may boast myself to be, with all possible vanity, the most unlearned and uninformed female who ever dared to be an authoress.
