Everyone loves fish photos. Well, most everyone. And high quality, creative, professional photos of fish, like it or not, are a major part of what this publication and others like it do. They’ve also become a core facet of the industry and sport of fishing as a whole. That fact is not without controversy. |

On one hand, catch and release advocates claim that fish often suffer at the hands of photo-hungry anglers that prioritize capturing a photo of their quarry over safe handling. There are many others that lament the fact that saturating social media with “epic” fish shots has become a form of currency, replacing outdated concepts of yesteryear, like knowledge, acumen and experience. Both of those problems are likely about to get much better, or much worse, depending on your perspective. |
