We all know its critical for every fisherman to be responsible stewards of the waters we fish. But what if we were to release 30,000 redfish BACK into the waters? What if we were to put tracking tags into a large percentage of those fish so we can follow their movements over the years?
Well it's been done and we are talking about it in this episode!
Most of us can't fish everyday. Most of us can't even fish every week. So when we get the opportunity to hit the water its only natural that everyone wants to catch more fish.
One of the most impactful things you can to do catch more fish is put together a solid plan for your day on the water. In this episode I take you through the pre-trip planning process I use and some tools that will help you to do it faster.
