We've talked before about carrying tools to keep our fish healthy. And how to keep their ecosystems healthy. Another must-have fly-fishing tool is about keeping your growth healthy.

That tool is the simple, humble fishing log. A place to record the details each time you go fishing. When you're done for the day, or the session, you tell the story. Add the specified info to cap off the session for posterity.
