You Have To Know How The Animal Thinks.

After many unsuccessful trout fishing expeditions I was asking myself a lot of questions. It seemed unusual at the time but I one day wondered if the rules for hunting would somehow help with Trout Fishing. The rules were obvious to hunters but no fisherman I had ever met even mentioned that kind of thing in relation to fish.

So I hit the books.

I decided that I would understand how a trout thinks and see if I could increase my chances of success. Being a fairly studious type of person it didn’t take me long to devour every book I could get my hands on from the local bookstore and the library. Within a week I knew more about Trout than 99.9% of the world's population. And guess what happened on the next fishing trip…
