In this episode, we welcome back Doug McElvy of Mountain Fly Outfitters for an inspiring conversation about his journey in fly fishing and the power of community. Doug shares the vision behind his new fly shop—more than just a retail space, it’s a gathering place for anglers, featuring a taproom, live music, and a welcoming outdoor space. But beyond the shop, we dive deep into the incredible resilience of Western NC in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. Doug has been on the frontlines, working with the EPA and local organizations to restore the watersheds. He shares powerful stories of how the fly fishing community—local shops, guides, and anglers—have come together to rebuild and support one another. This is an episode about perseverance, passion, and the unbreakable bond between people and their rivers.
