1 Catching catch-and-release- evidence from an Atlantic salmon recreational fishery
Catch-and-release (C&R) is often regarded a win-win management tool in recreational fisheries. As long as release mortality is low, C&R may both secure sustainable fish stock and a large recreational fishing sector at the same time. Hence, apparently both the targeted fish populations and th...

Catch-and-release (C&R) is often regarded a win-win management tool in recreational fisheries.
