"With fly fishing placing much of its emphasis on style rather than
efficiency and on the experience reather than the reward, this sort has
understandably been the leader in the practice of 'catch and release'.
This small but rapidly growing movement has followers all over the
world, mostly as a result of the missionary work done by American fly
fishers. There are times, however, when some of us get so carried away
with our slogans and enthusiasm that we forget our own fishing
beginnings and refuse to consider the other points of view."
