There’s a good way to talk about conservation. There are a lot of bad ways to talk about conservation.
While it is a broad-brushed, stereotyping statement, there is some truth in the “cantankerous fly fisher” archetype. In this episode I encourage us to take a better approach. We’re not going to win people to our side and our cause if the goal is to shame, discourage, and tear down. We can avoid conflict and promote conservation.
Today I share three stories. One of which involves me falling and flailing on a streambank.

Hi Matthew. I’m eating my lunch smiling to myself. Was your second story on valley creek, I’ve seen the locals chase away artificial lure spin fishers many a time. When they had no right to.
Hi Stephen,
Not Valley Creek. But I’m sure it is a scene replayed on trout streams across the Commonwealth and nation.
