Translating Research
Catch-and-release has been used as a conservation tool for more than a century, but decades of research have shown that what happens between catching and releasing a fish can have lasting impacts on its survival and well-being. Keep Fish Wet works to make this science more accessible to anglers by translating research into practical insights and best practices that help bridge the gap between fisheries science and the people on the water.
Explore the Science
Much of the science behind catch-and-release lives in technical research papers that can be difficult or expensive to access. Explore the research behind our best practices and dig deeper into the science that informs how we care for fish.
