Understanding how fish think is the key to successful fishing. There
is more to fishing than you might have first thought. To be more
precise, there's more to the fish themselves and how they think, than
you would have ever even considered.

quote from the site, "Why having a cigarette while fishing can halve your
chances of catching anything. p.22"

Hmmm... I read an article by a guy that says his catch numbers have dropped
since he quit smoking. In the past, if he put a nice fish down with the
wrong fly, he would tie on another fly and light up. By then the fish would
get active again in the 5-10 minutes it took him to be ready again. That was
his theory, anyway.

Maybe in his lifetime, which may be shortened by his smoking habit, the
smokers catch might be halved - and both are true then.
