That was a lovely thing to watch. Took me back to the most influential angler I ever met. I used to do a lot of fishing, and learned all sorts of techniques from some of the most famous anglers of the time. I even made all my own rods including a couple from split cane.
But the guy I learned the most from never had a hook on his line.
This is weird in the sense that there’s logic to this, but the reality is that most people who fish are concerned by preserving the environment and want rivers to be a good place where wildlife thrives.
There is cruelty in fishing for sure. It’s also undeniable that those that fish want there to be more fish and the best habitat possible for the fish.
Not a vegan, have tried being a vegan, have also tried fishing a few times. Very few fish were harmed
