25 Quotes by Jimmy Moore

    Fishing for browns requires stealth, patience, a lot of hiding behind bushes and limited wading. About the only time you'll see me hiding behind a bush is when I encounter a bear. I'd rather be on the water heading upstream. Doesn't seem to bother the rainbows and it's probably the reason I don't catch a lot of browns.

    Fly patterns are a lot like women. Some are plain. Some are flashy and some are in between. Look at your wife. She caught you, right? Tie a fly patterned after her, and you'll probably catch a lot of fish, but don't dare tell her if you're tying "plain".

    They say that to catch brown trout you have to be near invisible. I tried that on the Cimarron in 1999. It worked so well that a large brown bear never saw me as he snatched the fish from the end of my tippet.

    I told a lie the other day. I said that I'd caught a 'bunch' of trout. What I should have said is that I caught a little trout that I named Bunch. There, I?ve confessed and now I feel much better.

    For women, the higher their cholesterol is, the longer their life; there’s a direct relationship between the two. Your cholesterol cannot be too high if you are a woman, but it can certainly be too low.
