WOT 182: Brad Hansen Part 1. The Missouri River, Breaking Down Big Water, and Changing Perspective
Show Notes

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Brad Hansen from Helena, Montana.  Brad grew up in Utah and fell in love with the feeling of fighting big fish as a child fishing for lake rainbows with his cousins.  He started fly fishing while attending college at Utah State and later moved to Montana and began guiding on the Missouri River. 

We discuss how to break down big water into digestable pieces, tactics for fishing the Missouri River, and Brad also tells several stories of how and why his perspective around guiding and fishing has changed over the years.
