“The political potency of fish is known to Presidents as well as candidates. In modern times all Presidents quickly begin to fish soon after election . . . President Theodore Roosevelt, President Cleveland and myself–with slight egotism!–I think, are the only Presidents who had been lifelong fly fishermen before they went to the White House.”

-Herbert Hoover, Fishing for Fun
