Excerpt from the chapter "The Feather Merchant"
"Each [fly] is a delicate masterpiece, into which is woven the utter witchcraft of adventure and triumph. Each is a patchwork classic of materials and memories, of ancient tradition and the strange egotism that possesses proud hunters and fishers.
"I tell you there is nothing like a quiet evening hour in March, when a fly takes shape under the circling thread -- unless it is that climactic moment when a worthy trout or salmon rises to take a lure that you have fashioned with your own hand."
