ダーモット・ウィルソン著より


(右から二人目がダーモット・ウィルソン)
リッツはソーヤーとの親交を深めるなか、ソーヤーより教わったニンフを用いた釣りに晩年は傾倒していく。
(これについては''Man of the Riverside''に記述がある)

リッツはフライをバーブレスにすべきだと強く主張して、ファリオクラブの会合でもメンバーにバーブレスフックを推奨している。

彼の意見はノン・バーブレス・フライフィッシャーは真のスポーツマンではない、それを使うフライフィッシャーを軽侮するとまで言っていた

 (ネザー・ワーロップ・ミルの池でロッドをテストする常に敏捷なリッツ)

Dermot Wilson:
Charles Ritz is indeed a good friend  and from time to time he has tried patiently
to improve my casting.
But I have only fished with him once on the Ichen. Even this single occasion,
howev er ,was enough to show the "Old Man"
(as the the young feller will call himself) can easily live up to his reputation.
 He insisted on casting an incredibly long line.
Partly, I suspect, for the sheer hell of it-for he knows my own opinion that a long
line serves to meke drag more likely and the hooking of a fish more difficult.
We then came upon a difficult time. Several trout were nimphing just below the s-
urface, but paying no attention to any that I put near them.
Charles was watching.
"Those are wise fish" he said ,"so I must show you how to catch them."
He then gave me a lesson on fishing the downstream business indeed to the -
 "unfair" method, usually quite rightly banned, or fishing a downstream nymph like 
a wet fly. "The idea," he said, "is that the trout should see the nymph before the  
nylon must on no account drag"
Here a long cast is very necessary,for you must station yourself  far enough abo-
ve a trout to stand no chance of being seen.   
Then you must drop your nymph just upstream of your trout, sufficiently far up-
stream and with enough slack in the line to gve it a free drift past the fish.
You hardly ever get a second chance, since the recovery of your first cast will put
the trout nine times out of ten.
Charles caught two of the fish I had failed to catch, then handed the rod to me.
Half-an-hour passed.
"Never mind, mon ami," he said , "it will come to you in time. "
