For more than 30 years, Andrew Flitcroft, former Editor of Trout & Salmon, and now Editor of The Take, Loop Tackle's new digital magazine, has watched salmon fishing shift from an era when success was measured by how many fish you caught — and killed — to one where catching a single wild Atlantic salmon can feel like a privilege.
In this episode of The Last Salmon, Andrew joins Jim Murray to reflect on the transformation in the sport, asking, if salmon numbers are under such pressure, should we still be fishing for them at all?
