I've actually been thinking about that very thing all day. It was a judgemental blanket comment and I came back on here to say just that. I'm not that new to fishing. I'm 2 seasons in but two years before I started fishing I was dragged out to watch my ex fish or read a book by the water. Not to mention the conversations on this very subject I have listened in on. In my personal experience and observations the majority of what I call "fish abuse" was done by spin casters. A better observation and still slightly judgemental is that maybe the ignorant types like those in the video are probably more likely to spin a rod then put the work and care needed for the more skilful art of fly fishing. Maybe that is why I have seen what I have seen. I've heard these same complaints from other fly guys. There is good and bad in everything but from what I have seen so far, spin casters have shown less respect and connection to their catch then all the fly fishers I have encountered but those are just my experiences and I haven't seen everything. It's like anything in life, the harder you work for something, the more respect and appreciation you have for it and I am pretty sure fly fishing requires a lot more work, knowledge and skill then spin casting but maybe someone can correct me on that. More so, I think that through learning about fish ecosystems as in-depth as one must to properly fish on a fly fosters a deeper understanding for the ecosystem as a whole and understanding is what fosters deeper respect, care and appreciation overall. Those are my observations and opinions ....as narrow and blanket judgement as they are.
