Probably one of my favorite parts of the story - do you think Karl really said that or did they clean it up for the readership in 1913? |
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
