Most fly fishermen practice C and R and thus do the least harm to the fish. Gear fishing (especially bait fishing) usually means a dead fish.

Another plus for fly fishing is that I can't see myself ever putting a worm on a hook, casting it out, sticking the rod into the bank, sitting down and grunting once in awhile.
That grunting takes skill and many years to perfect.

Like you I have no objection against bait, worms, etc. as long as it's legal and people adhere to limit rules. I have suspicions about a certain group of bait fishers at a lake I frequent (too much) but don't know how to proceed with a snoop. Maybe anchor just beyond their casting reach and watch them with binoculars, and then get back to my truck and find the tires slashed.
