The Power of Storytelling: Preserving Rivers, Creating Parks and Changing Lives

Abstract
Abstract - A story can change the world and fishing stories can impact angling, conservation, and the spread of invasive species. This talk will look at how stories have shaped, and continue to shape, angling from Yellowstone to New Zealand and almost everywhere in between. This paper examines the power and impact of stories as they relate to national parks and preserving rivers and game fish species.
