Have the right attitude

This is the second of my 10 commandments of fly fishing and you can apply it in which ever way it helps you.

10. Have the right attitude.

My Italian friend, Edoardo Ferrero sums it "When someone gets on the water, I want to see the red eyes of the devil in his eyes”.
You must want to catch fish, you must have the hunger to learn how to fish no matter what your talent. With the right attitude you will learn new stuff. With the right attitude you will transfer some of your knowledge to someone new.

10 fly-fishing commandments

I am by no means the world’s best fly fisher, or the best fly tyer, but I have taught many people to fish as well as hundreds of school kids. Up to a couple hundred have attended my Nymphing Master Classes.
I have heard so many times: "I cannot fish", "I cannot cast", "I do not know where to fish", "I wonder how that guy catches so many fish"
I developed my 10 commandments of fishing, that I normally try and share with people along the way.
