One I've heard a few times since I started fly fishing: "Trout don't live in ugly places."
LOL love me some Pat McManus! Saw a snake on Elkhorn this week and performed a Modified Stationary Panic in his honor.My all-time favorite from Patrick F. McManus:
"Scholars have long known that fishing turns men into philosophers. Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to buy decent tackle on a philosophers salary. I have always thought it would be better if fishing turned men into Wall Street bankers, but that is not the case. Its philosophers or nothing."
Trying to calmly reason with the wife when I'm trying to head to the lake and she's already planned my day: "Fishing is not a matter of life and death, it's much more important than that!"
My dad, everytime he hooks a tree or a rock and gets stuck. "You ain't fishing if you ain't getting hung up." To which I reply, "Well then you are fishing an awful lot."
90% of the fish use 10% of the water

"You work at your job to feed your family. You bass fish to feed your soul."
-Rick Clunn
"Wish I had said that." -Jerry McKinnis
I am surprise no one said this yet:
A bad day fishing beats a good day at work.
My mother once said..."Fishing: A jerk at one end of the line awaiting a jerk at the other end." Never any ill will, I liked topwater and stickbait fishin.
