so you caught a fish

Found this blog post in my inbox this morning. It's a good (short) article on how to handle and release trout. Not sure about the Coke thing...

Fish always lose by being "got in and dressed." It is best to weigh them while they are in the water. The only really large one I ever caught got away with my leader when I first struck him. He weighed ten pounds. —Charles Dudley Warner

I agree - they always have some good tips, great photos and some pretty entertaining stories. I don't know if you caught their article about REM's Michael Stipe being an avid fly fisher... but it was a crack-up.
