Done properly, catch and release is an awesome conservation tool. Mishandle the fish and you’re throwing back dead meat. Hannah Belford over at Flyfishergirl.com is holding a contest to promote proper fish handling and why its important to let big fish keep swimming. Check it out and maybe you’ll win a reel while you’re at it.

Hi there
I have to say that when I have gone fishing we have only caught and then released the fish again, I don’t think that I would have the heart to catch them and then eat them
