From now on I’m going to say that I “practice fly fishing,” not “I fly fish.” You elaborate well on so many points my fly fishing friends and I wrestle with. The practice has taken me far more places, afforded me far more friends, and made me aware of far more that’s at stake environmentally than fish I’ve caught. There is no progress (or genuine fulfillment) without patience. Great piece, bud.

A very thoughtful piece Jacob. This line of thinking is seeing more discussion for some of the reasons you present, which is a good thing. Hopefully the more attention the evolution gets the more we will try and manage it thoughtfully.
