As the Director of Trout Unlimited’s Alaska Program, I have the honor of helping to take care of the Alaskan rivers anglers love to fish every day. For me the magic of fly fishing is rooted in the freedom to escape from the busyness of daily routines and explore new places with my family. We reconnect on the river, we laugh, we slow down and enjoy just being together. I hope I can inspire other families to find this magic too.
