WOT 116: Jory Ward Part 1. Cutthroat Trout, Rocky Mountains, and Fishing Bamboo Fly Rods

In this episode we Wadeoutthere with Jory Ward from Wellsville, Utah. Jory learned to fish while building fence with his father and grandfather in the Rocky Mountains as a child.
When he moved to Utah, he reconnected with fly fishing when he saw a bamboo fly rod hanging in a fly shop, and decided to build one.
In Part 1 of our discussion Jory explains what drew him to bamboo and the unique qualities of fishing with bamboo vs graphite fly rods. We also discuss exploring the Rocky Mountains for cutthroat trout.
