Back to EpisodesHigh Adrenaline Fly Fishing on the Flathead River with Hilary Hutcheson
Description
Get ready for an exhilarating adventure on the wild and scenic Flathead River in Northern Montana with expert fly angler and industry icon, Hilary Hutcheson! Originating in some of the most breathtaking and remote scenery in the west, the Flathead offers high-adrenaline whitewater fly fishing and crystal-clear waters teeming with native westslope cutthroat trout who love to look up.
Hilary, who started guiding as a teenager, has a fascinating journey from television news anchor in Portland to guiding on the Flathead and Middle Fork of the Salmon River. Owner of Lary's Fly & Supply in Columbia Falls, Montana, she's a key industry player, serving on multiple boards, testifying on Capitol Hill, and winning awards as a filmmaker, journalist, and contributing editor for Fly Fisherman Magazine.
Brace yourself for stories of Bonecrusher rapids, grizzly bears, and a client with a superhuman bladder, plus Hilary's guide training philosophy and Capitol Hill testimony. Stick around to the end for a sneak peek at her new movie. Grab your helmet—this ride is going to be wild!
With host, Steve Haigh
