Fly Fishing, more than a hobby it quickly turns into a philosophy...a way of life. You become a protector of nature, your surroundings. It has many facets, if you want to do delicate work with your hands you can pickup fly tying, fly casting can be a highly technical sport on it's own. And then there's al the trickery of the dozens of fly fishing styles and techniques...
If you want a good excuse to immerse yourself in nature, understand some living systems, and catch a fish (to release it), pick up Fly Fishing... It changed my life.

- MrGando 11y agoUsually it's not a part of it, but you could do it. A huge part of the fly fishing philosophy is Catch & Release (C&R).
- gadders 11y agoI think it depends where you fish. Wild fish, certainly you should limit how many fish you take. In stocked waters, it doesn't matter so much. In fact on the ticket they stipulate how many fish you should take with you.
