Many Montanans have their sights set on paddlefish—and yes, that also means snag and release, not just dinner plans. These prehistoric-looking giants can weigh 200 pounds and are older than most family recipes, yet surprisingly few people know how to properly snag and release them. Luckily, Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks recently dropped a handy video walking you through the process, and it’s worth a watch before heading out.
