Yes.  This appears on p.2  (Even though his index says it's on p.3)

 

The exact quote:

 

"It is said that fly casting is both sciencer and art.  I would agree.  One of my friends voiced it beautifully when she refered to fly fishing as a, "ballet with nanture" - a combination of physical skills and fine art.  Taking it a step further, it is possible to look at the purely fhysical skills of fly casting as the science, while the way in which those skills are interpreted and used as the art.  It may take years to become a true artist, but the underlying science behind that art can be learned relatively quickly."  Jason Borger, THE NATURE OF FLY CASTING, p.2, P #8.
