- Synopsis
- This pamphlet will tell you a lot about fish and how to catch them. You might catch them for fun and "sport," or to eat. Fishing can become a lifetime pursuit, like golf or tennis. Many kinds of fish are described here, along with many ways to catch them--there are always new challenges in fishing, and always more to learn. This is one merit badge you are sure to enjoy earning from the very start. Robert S. S. Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scouting movement, offers this advice to the young fisherman: "Every Scout ought to be able to fish in order to get food for himself. A tenderfoot [beginner] who starved on the bank of a river full of fish would look very silly, yet it might happen to one who had never learned to catch fish." It's no surprise that fishing remains a favorite pastime on Scout outings.
