Craig Matthews on Conservation and Fishing in West Yellowstone

Montana has been known to change the course of many lives, including that of angler & author Craig Mathews, who sits down with Leslie Gains to discuss his time spent as a fly fisherman, conservationist, fly-shop owner, and former chief of police in West Yellowstone. Craig shares memorable stories about his work in Montana and the friendships that resulted—from a U.S. president to renowned journalists and Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard, with whom he has co-authored several books and co-founded 1% for the Planet, an organization that has helped raise nearly one billion dollars for environmental causes.
