In my previous video, I talked about the current Fraser River situation, my values when it comes to fishing as well as some thoughts on First Nations’ Fishery practices. While I always do my best to be diplomatic and unbiased, these are still my perspectives after all so it is always good to listen to what others have to say. 300+ comments later, I’d say that I’ve learned quite a bit more!
Here is another video which I would love all of you to check out. While fishing in the Yukon Territory a few weeks ago, we had a chance to have a conversation with Brandy Mayes, who is a land steward for the First Nation. In this video, Kitty has a chance to learn more about Brandy’s fishing stories, as well as her views on sport fishing, catch and release practices from the First Nations’ perspectives.
Many thanks to Dennis Zimmermann from Respect for Fish for setting up this opportunity. Dennis is a passionate advocate on fishery conservation and has been the bridge between First Nations and the recreational fishing sector in the Yukon Territory for many years.
Lets hear your thoughts.
