Join us on the edge of the Clark Fork River for an interview with Jess McGlothlin, an international fly fishing guide, journalist and photographer. Jess was born in Colombia Falls, Montana. She grew up fly fishing, riding horses and doing rodeo events. Jess has documented fisheries in five continents but continues to return to Missoula inbetween international assignments. Jess speaks about the influx of new residents in Missoula and how that can both be a positive and negative thing for our rivers and resources. Jess shares with us the importance of proper fish handling as we enter into yet another hot summer. One of the main takeaways of this episode is the concept of "KEEP FISH WET" a concept of keeping fish (especially trout) in the river during the hot summer months in order to protect them, their slim and the health of fisheries for future generations.
