About this episode
Rebecca Ramirez shares her transformative flyfishing adventure in the High Sierra, emphasizing conservation and personal connection with nature.
On a flyfishing adventure to explore the High Sierra’s most remote valley, Rebecca Ramirez is the first to admit that, fifteen years ago, she’d have easily been voted “least likely to be here.” When she decides to cut the hooks off her flies and explore a new way to connect with trout, her dedication to conservation and commitment to mastery come full circle.
