Host Jim Klug talks with Tom about current the biggest challenges and threats facing our rivers (and our sport), recent wins and developments that provide hope for the future, the issue of dam removal, ho to reconnect rivers to ensure healthy fisheries, the current status of the Pebble Mine fight in Bristol Bay, and how American Rivers has been successful at working across party lines at a time when Washington D.C. seems to be more divided than ever.
