Norman: [narrating] Long ago, when I was a young man, my father said to me, "Norman, you like to write stories." And I said "Yes, I do." Then he said, "Someday, when you're ready you might tell our family story. Only then will you understand what happened and why."

The producers would like to point out that, although
the Macleans kept their catch as was common earlier
in this century, enlightened fisherman today endorse
a "catch and release" policy to assure that this priceless
resource swims free to fight another day. Good fishing. See more »

Trivia
The film was originally produced by Carolco, the studio responsible for Terminator 2: Judgment Day and the "Rambo" films, among others. Due to the serious debt Carolco was facing, Robert Redford called upon film producer Jake Eberts to put in the financing of the pre-production. During post-production, Carolco sold their rights to the film to Eberts. See more »Goofs
Continuity: Young Paul has brown eyes in the film, while the grown up Paul has blue eyes. See more »Quotes
