She doesn't "stay quiet" when fishing, doesn't use any geegaws/floats/sinkers/whatevers, doesn't bob the line, doesn't follow any fishing rules I ever heard were necessary to catch fish. She don't waste time and don't care. She goes out to get fish and she does, lickity split.

First of all, that's awesome.
Bass are more inured to the rules, because they are not cautious.
River trout, especially the native wild ones here, are a mercurial sort, and are constantly in play.
In the end, the experience is what matters, and the entomological journey for me has been amazing.
