Catch and release fishing is a great way to conserve fish populations while still enjoying the sport. Here are some tips to make sure you do it effectively: 1. Use barbless hooks to minimize injury to the fish. 2. Handle the fish with wet hands or a wet cloth to protect their slime coat. 3. Avoid removing the fish from the water for too long, especially in hot weather. 4. Use proper gear to reduce fight time and exhaustion for the fish. 5. Revive the fish by holding it upright in the water and moving it back and forth to help water flow through its gills. Remember, the goal is to release the fish unharmed so it can live to be caught another day!
