Our destination is the legendary Missouri River near Craig, Montana, one of the most technically challenging rivers in the West. Joining me is guide, author, photographer, Marine Corps vet, and adjunct professor, Micah Fields, who unpacks his playbook for dry-fly headhunting, the quirks of Holter dam, and the art of reading a river that fishes like a giant spring creek. Plus, hear about Montana’s highly selective “Guiding for the Future” program and why it matters for the rivers we love, MRE’s and chickens in Helmand Province, and an encounter with the great John Geirach. Stick around to the end for Mica’s favorite shore lunch – you will be drooling over this one! Get out the chalk board as we talk serious X’s and O’s on technical fly fishing with Micah.
