Hilary Hutcheson, Fishing Guide and Environmental Advocate
Dave and Eddie talk with guide and environmental advocate Hilary Hutcheson, who grew up on the rivers of her home state of Montana, continues to guide there, and is a leading voice in raising awareness of how climate change is affecting North America’s fishing heritage. The mother of three grown children has fished all over the world (with a soft spot for the South), has testified before a Senate committee about the state of fisheries across the country, and is an ambassador for several of the biggest names in the sporting world. But there’s one dream she’s not been able to make come true: noodling a catfish. Presented in partnership with Duck Camp.Sites mentioned in Episode 2:Hilary Hutcheson’s Instagram: @outsidehilaryConservation organizations: Backcountry Hunters and AnglersCasting for RecoveryProtect Our WintersGuiding for the FutureFishing Outfitters Association of MontanaCaptains for Clean WaterFish for ChangeClimate Solution CaucusForest/wildernesses:Sian Ka’an Biosphere ReserveCrown of the ContinentWild and Scenic RiversWild and Scenic RiversGlacier National ParkFlathead National ForestBob Marshall Wilderness ComplexGreat Bear WildernessWild South credits:Producer and editor: Christine FennessyMusic: Woody Platt and Bennett SullivanArtwork: Lars LeetaruTranscripts editor: Katherine Jarvis
