Is Catch-and-Release an Effective Conservation Tool?

On the February 13, 2020 Episode of Tom Rosenbauer’s Fly Fishing Podcast, he interviews University of Massachusetts scientist Dr. Andy Danylchuk (FYI- he’s Canadian!) about the science and effectiveness of cath-and-release. For trout anglers, or any angler for that matter, the science in this interview is well worth the listen. You’ll gain a wider understanding of fish and stream biology and your place in conservation. You can fast forward through the “Fly Box,” where Tom takes listeners’ questions,  to the start of the interview at 51 minutes.
