human beings seem to have unlimited abilities to make simple things complex

this is certainly true of fly fishing "technique" ... look at the huge
volume of printed material on this "hobby"

for me, fly fishing has appeals at the "deepest" levels I operate and "the
mystery" does aptly suggest those

I have often used the word "spiritual" to hint at the inner most reasons I
hunt ( fishing is hunting ) but always felt the word comes with too much
social baggage even if it is otherwise accurate "the mystery" is nice
