WOT 232: Bull Trout and Glass Fish Art with Martin Gerdin
Description
In this episode we WadeOutThere with Martin Gerdin, from Aspen Colorado. Martin grew up fishing with a spinning rig and a passion for fish that bled over into an early introduction to the world of glass art.
As Martin began to learn the craft of shaping glass, a fish was first on his list to create. Martin credits his later discovery of fly fishing for helping him maintain sobriety and for bringing clarity to his art and life.
Since he began fly fishing Martin has also become passionate about the native species of North America and has spent much of his free time learning their history and seeking them out with a fly rod.
We discuss how to find and fish to bull trout, the habitat challenges bull trout face, and the process of creating fish from glass.
