WOT #3: Starting Out and the Bitterroot River with Amanda Jensen

On this episode we Wadeoutthere with Amanda Jensen from Stevensville MT in the Bitteroot Valley.  Amanda is fairly new to fly fishing, but you wouldn’t know it with some of the trout she nets.  We discuss overcoming some of the intimidating aspects of fly fishing in the beginning (00:04:07), the Bitterroot River (00:19:21), and her thoughts on getting young women involved in the sport (00:56:34).  She also explains how the Mayfly Project helps foster children through fly fishing (01:00:44).
