This week, Chris Wood, president and CEO of Trout Unlimited, visited us in Vermont, and we got to pull him aside for a great podcast (and take him fishing for brook trout). Chris is a master at distilling complicated environmental issues down to their essence in a way anglers can understand them, and he enlightens us on some current issues, such as Pebble Mine, the Clean Water Rule, and western water laws. And it’s not all bad news!
In the Fly Box, questions range from requests to have me MC a rehearsal dinner for a wedding (not gonna happen), to switching from trout to other species, to getting another season out of a pair of waders. Plus questions on Village Idiots and herons and redfish and fishing diaries. Plus a couple of cool tips from listeners on fly tying.
