from Wet Fly Swing Fly Fishing Podcast · host Dave Stewart, Margaret Stern
#923 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/923 Presented By: FishHound Expeditions Sponsors: https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors How does one of the largest free-flowing rivers in the United States end up back on the table for major development projects? In this episode, Margaret Stern from the Susitna River Coalition returns to the podcast to share what's happening right now across Alaska's Susitna watershed—from a proposed hydroelectric dam to a massive access road that could permanently change the region. We talk about why the Susitna remains such a unique and accessible wild river system, how local communities are organizing around conservation, and why public comments matter more than most anglers realize. Margaret also shares details on the coalition's river cleanup efforts, citizen science projects, and practical ways anyone—whether you live in Alaska or not—can help protect these fisheries for future generations. #923 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/923
