Ep 166: Native Fish and Biodiversity, with Matthew Dickerson
Matthew Dickerson is a freelance writer who has published in The Drake, Backcountry Journal, American Fly Fishing, Written River, and Fly Fishing International. He has also written many books of both fiction and nonfiction. In addition to writing, he is passionate about native species, particularly those in the Salvelinus genus, such as brook trout and Dolly Varden. In this episode, we talk about his appreciation for native species and biodiversity, what it’s like to be an artist-in-residence for a national park, how Yellowstone Lake was affected by the introduction of lake trout, and much more.
