This will be a two-part episode, and we are pleased to release them during Native American Heritage Month. Episode 4 is a very special one for many reasons. We traveled to the Wind River Reservation, home to the Eastern Shoshone and the Northern Arapaho people. Being on location for this podcast was imperative for authenticity and we wanted to experience first hand the work Indifly has been doing over the past decade. Indifly's mission is helping to create economic opportunities in their communities through fly fishing while protecting the resources and the environments that sustain them. Indifly is currently working with the Shoshone and Arapaho to set up a lodge on the reservation. In part two we talk with Art Lawson, Director of Wind River Fish and Game about life on the reservation, and how a fly fishing lodge will improve life for the Shoshone and Arapaho who live there.
About Host | Dave McCoy:
Raised in Eugene, Oregon, my stomping grounds were of legendary namesake; the Deschutes, McKenzie and North Umpqua Rivers among others. I quickly discovered the thrill of having a fish on but was always in awe of my surroundings. My early exposure to water in all forms led me away from fly fishing to pursue a career as a ski race coach but was always mindful of what fly fishing brought to my life. I have a habit of relentlessly pursuing the effort to exceed expectations and create a more inclusive narrative for this sport.
