Guy, that doesn't make any sense at all. If the other fishermen are practicing catch and release, no part of being successful with that involves the fish getting into a snag, so how could they learn it?

Hey, they are your fish to do with what you want, but at least give it a little more thought because your logic is missing a step or few. CPR does not teach fish to run into snags any more than any other angling.
