Fishing quotes...
 
Ok, so I checked out fishing quotes and found a few gems...

There he stands, draped in more equipment than a telephone lineman, trying to outwit an organism with a brain no bigger than a breadcrumb, and getting licked in the process. ~Paul O'Neil, 1965

The best way to a fisherman's heart is through his fly. ~Author Unknown

There's a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot. ~Steven Wright

May the holes in your net be no larger than the fish in it. ~Irish Blessing

Somebody just back of you while you are fishing is as bad as someone looking over your shoulder while you write a letter to your girl. ~Ernest Hemingway

The gods do not deduct from man's allotted span the hours spent in fishing. ~Babylonian Proverb


Thought I'd share, for what it's worth!

The ocean is large and so full of fish,
if a fellow is patient he might get his wish.

Dr Suess, "Mcelligot's Pool".............great fishing book to read to your kids if you can find it, by the way.

My two favorites are;

A jerk on one end of the line waiting for a jerk on the other.

and

I spent about 1% of my life fishing, the rest I just wasted.

Wind from the east, fish bite least.
Wind from the north, don't go forth.
Wind from the south, fish will take it in the mouth.
Wind from the west, fishing is the best.
