Ask Quotes
At times, the fishing part of it becomes very secondary. Any time we are not fishing a tournament, we are a representative of Tracker Marine. We are out there teaching people how to fish and promoting the product. The business part of it is a big part of our job. A lot of young guys ask me, 'I want to be a bass pro; how do I get there?' I tell them to hone their business skills and public speaking. The sponsors want someone who can help them sell product.

Bicycles Quotes
That section of road is within the city limits, but the roadway we are talking about is (Florida) Department of Transportation property. The DOT has already posted signs that prohibit bicycles and pedestrians from being on the span of bridge that's the Fourth Street exit off of I-275. And after taking a look at the area, I can see that people fishing there could be a real hazard, so they (DOT officials) probably need to post no fishing signs there so that it's a very clear message.

Bed Quotes
I'm going to have lunch with Secretary of State Rice, talk a little business; Mrs. Bush, talk a little business ... take a little nap. I'm reading an Elmore Leonard book right now, knock off a little Elmore Leonard this afternoon; go fishing with my man, Barney; a light dinner and head to the ballgame. I get to bed about 9:30 p.m., wake up at 5 a.m. So it's a perfect day.

Birds Quotes
I haven't been out there myself but a few of my buddies have. They put in at Junior's and didn't have any trouble getting out. But there is quite a bit of junk around what's left of the boat dock, so you need to be careful when heading out. They ended up fishing under the birds and did pretty good. It's wide-open fishing right now. No competition from other fishermen.

Both Quotes
I had the fish on a rope at the end of the dock, and I told John to pull the rope up because at the end was a fish we've been fishing for since we were kids, the one we've been dreaming of catching. When he pulled that rope up, he pulled it ever so slowly, like an inch at a time. And there on the end was that 20-pounder, and it no longer was a dream, but something we both could see and touch.

Bad Quotes
I love rainy and bad-weather days because this type of weather gives me a mental advantage, especially when I'm fishing in a tournament. When the weather is inclement, most fishermen start thinking of reasons why they can't catch bass. But, because I fish so often in bad weather, I'm thinking of all the reasons I can catch bass in bad weather conditions.

Bird Quotes
Being completely honest with you, just because the bird numbers are so good, it really doesn't make any difference whether it's today or November. It's just like fishing or whatever, nobody can predict. It's just what works out. Some people like to hunt with a little snow on the ground; some people like it a little warmer.

Certainly Quotes
Choosing a prop is certainly not an exact science. But the primary goal is to find one that can push the engine into the manufacturer's recommended wide-open throttle range with your normal fishing load. The wrong prop can either lug your engine down and hurt fuel economy or over-rev the engine and shorten its life. After that it's a matter of fine-tuning to meet your particular needs.

Sea Quotes
It is utterly soothing to fly fish for trout. All other considerations or worries drift away and you couldn't keep them close if you wanted. Perhaps it's standing thigh deep in a river with the water passing at the exact but varying speed of life. You easily recognize this mortality and it dissipates into the landscape.

Sea Quotes
So, eventually, he made one final arrangement with himself, which he has religiously held to ever since, and that was to count each fish that he caught as ten, and to assume ten to begin with. For example, if he did not catch any fish at all, then he said he had caught ten fish - you could never catch less than ten fish by his system; that was the foundation of it. Then, if by any chance he really did catch one fish, he called it twenty, while two fish would count thirty, three forty, and so on.

Becoming Quotes
Ice fishing has become a fairly high-tech activity, with many winter anglers becoming tech-savvy by using fish locators, GPS units and underwater video cameras. By putting fishing information in an easy-to-access format on the Web, we hope to not only encourage ice fishing but also help anglers be successful and safe while they are on the ice.

Running Quotes
It's all very well to run around saying regulation is bad, get the government off our backs, etc. Of course our lives are regulated. When you come to a stop sign, you stop; if you want to go fishing, you get a license; if you want to shoot ducks, you can shoot only three ducks. The alternative is dead bodies at the intersections, no fish and no ducks. OK?

Night Quotes
I lay in bed the night before the fishing trip and thought it over, about my being deaf, about the years of not letting on I heard what was said, and I wonder if I can ever act any other way again. But I remembered one thing: it wasn't me that started acting deaf; it was people that first started acting like I was too dumb to hear or see or say anything at all.
