  • Tom Derry is the connection between wild fish and the activists striving to protect them. A lifelong angler and the director of wild steelhead funding for the Native Fish Society, Tom embodies the commitment behind countless conservation efforts all with a single goal: more wild fish. Filmed along British Columbia’s Babine River, Tom captures the essence of angling for wild steelhead and provides insight into what motivates a motivator.

    My daughter's middle name is Babine... and there's a hole on that river named after my grandfather. A wonderful place.

    Great…great….great. Thirty two years of teaching high school in the US. We all want kids to be healthy in body and soul. Every new principal I tried to add to our school goals, that every child when they leave has a live long passion, a commitment of responsibility for something. The poor, the hungry, the forest, the rivers…..something that they are willing to make a priority in there life. Their response was always, grades, class rank and entry to college.
    “Activism is the rent for living on the planet”.
    I will call my good friend of 95 who got me involved 40 years ago…and thank her for best lesson I ever received.

    11:57 - "If we're not out there angling for them, steelhead just cease to exist."
    I've always wondered why I am drawn to fishing so strongly. I think this is a good reason to keep fishing. Without the sport, there would be one less reason to preserve the wild.

    Loved this so much. You might consider doing a video raising awareness about the importance of washing your waders and other fishing gear between trips to prevent the spread of invasive aquatic species, too.

    And yet the runs on the skeena, babine, kispiox, morice, ect, ect are nearly at an all time low. Tough to see a video like this and imagine what its like to see the runs how they are through a guy like Toms eyes...
