In this episode we Wadeoutthere with Jenny West from Hamilton, Montana. Jenny was born and raised in the Bitterroot Valley, where her father taught her fly fishing at an early age. Jenny continued to fly fish throughout her youth. After college her continued passion for the sport eventually led her to guiding on the Bitterroot River where she now the owns ‘Go West Outfitters’.
