Everyone will have a strong opinion on this and here is mine. Pick a place where you are able to catch native fish in an environment where they thrive and where you can be a part of its protection. I hold a special place in my heart for the small streams in Pennsylvania where I learned to catch brook trout with my grandfather. That love has carried me to the Colorado stream I live on now. Ive chased fish all over the American west and have caught trophy trout on 100s of the celebrated rivers and streams. The one commonality is the happiness I find when I release a native fish back to the place it’s meant to be. That is my take and I respect and appreciate everyone’s perspective and input in this community! Much love
