If the line was written by Izaak Walton, however, it doesn't appear to be from The Compleat Angler, which would seem the obvious source. (It's not from The Life of Dr. John Donne , either.) His other works don't seem to be available to peruse (or text-search) online.
Thanks for the tip just the same. Going by context, he does seem a likely candidate for the intended reference.
