RODERICK HAIG-BROWN'S RIVER
"I call the river mine, without owning any foot of it from source to sea and without any
thought of possession in the ordinary sense...I do not want possession, only freedom of the river;
and with every growth of knowledge and experience freedom grows."
"Because I have learned so much of the river through fishing and watching fish, it is difficult
to write of it without thinking of fish. From a fisherman's point of view almost everything about
a river is related to fish and fishing...the interrelationships are so
far reaching and complicated that it is really comprehensive; if anything is not included, the
fisherman is almost certain to include it because observation is one of the keenest pleasures of
his sport," (Roderick Haig-Brown. Measure of
the Year. pp. 255-256).
