Fish . . .
OK. So we must admit that catching fish is our ultimate goal. They are what got us hooked on this sport of fly fishing and we owe it to them to protect and nourish them and the places they live.
For the learner, it is quite likely that just one or two species of fish will be your initial quarry. And some of us never need to go beyond. But if you reach out to other places, waters and therewith species of fish, the rewards are even more magnified.
As a fly fisher, if you treat your fish and where you find them with respect, you will be blessed with the ability to enjoy pursuing them your entire life.
