Today, as we gather with our families, we're especially grateful for our veterans and their sacrifices to ensure our safety and freedoms. Will you make a donation to show your gratitude to our nation's post-9/1...

    Oorah sir, but the most important thing to me is to walk out every morning and appreciate the wonder that is the small things that make life rich. Oh and a 23" brown trout on a 3weight rod.. As a Marine vet and avid fly fisherman, notice I didn't say expert, I have found rivers to be my peace.

    It's super gratifying to see so many great programs that have started up to assist all our guys coming home and separating from the service . There really weren't any good or well run platforms for vets back in the day . When I got home from Vietnam , it was to an extremely unwelcoming country. I just kept my act together and worked hard . Never really talked to anybody about what we did there unless it was another vet . Anyway, you're doing an awesome thing working with all these amazing people.

    Just found your channel and subscribed. I started school in Darby while living on the now famous Chair Joseph Ranch. Some of my family were early pioneers in Montana also. Not sure if any still live there. I raised sheep for 4H when we moved back to Southwest Idaho when I was seven. I too was Marine Infantry 0341 '75-'77. Semper Fi.

    I really think its important to inform you that it is illegal to fish with line and hook through a hole you've cut in the ice bigger than 12" in montana. I love what your doing with your group but I don't want any of you to get in trouble because of this video. Not a "Karen" because I think it's a stupid law to begin with but you might want to consider the issue FWP is going to have with it.
