“There are "indicator" plants and there are "indicator people". When you see Cedar, you know there's alkaline, limestone-based soil around. When you see Fly Fishers, you know there's fish around - well, not always.”

“They say that to catch brown trout you have to be near invisible. I tried that on the Cimarron in 1999. It worked so well that a large brown bear never saw me as he snatched the fish from the end of my tippet.”

“The ability to read a trout stream is just as valuable to a fly fisherman as the ability to read a defense is to an NFL quarterback.”

“The fly fisher who says they have never, ever fallen while wading , is either a pathogenic liar, or has never been fly fishing.”

“Fishing for browns requires stealth, patience, a lot of hiding behind bushes and limited wading. About the only time you'll see me hiding behind a bush is when I encounter a bear. I'd rather be on the water heading upstream. Doesn't seem to bother the rainbows and it's probably the reason I don't catch a lot of browns.”

“When I was a little kid, I fished real worms to catch fish and my nickname was Wormy. The worms also kept the girls away. Then when I discovered girls, I switched to flies thinking the girls would go fishing with me. That didn't work either! Not long after that, I changed my nickname from "WORMY" to "Fly Fishing Man" and started fishing flies. The girls fell all over me, but then I couldn't catch any fish." Moral of the story: "Young Man, Don't Give Up Your Worms Too Soon!”

“I have no problems when I'm on the stream. My problems occur mostly at the office. Maybe I should move my office to the stream!”

“"Fly patterns are a lot like women. Some are plain. Some are flashy and some are in between. Look at your wife. She caught you, right? Tie a fly patterned after her, and you'll probably catch a lot of fish, but don't dare tell her if you're tying "plain".”
