Retire to what? I already play golf and fish for a living.

I just like to catch fish, I don't care if it weighs half a pound or 10 pounds. But I can't do a lot of casting. I can work a jig or a worm. But not for long, especially if the big ones are biting. Those big bass will make it hurt after a while.

No good fish goes anywhere without a porpoise.

I've slowly gone back, later on in life, to fish and then chicken and then, last year, red meat.

Traveling is my form of self-education. Every stream I fish now is not as good as it used to be. Traveling is my form of self-education. Every stream I fish now is not as good as it used to be. If you keep your eyes open as you travel around, you realize we are destroying this planet.

The whales, you see, eat up the little fish.

It's okay to eat fish because they don't have any feelings.

We also own a little boat and I'm like a kid with it. I take off early in the morning, fishing rod in tow, and just drift about the ocean all day.
