Dylan Tomine is an author, filmmaker, Patagonia Ambassador and diehard conservationist. His first book, Closer to the Ground (Patagonia Books, 2012), is an exploration of "an outdoor family's year on the water, in the woods and at the table." In 2022, Tomine published Headwaters: The Adventures, Obsession, and Evolution of a Fly Fisherman, a collection of previously-published and new work, also with Patagonia Books.  Tomine's film work highlights the plight of wild salmon and steelhead. DamNation provided an unforgiving look at the history of dams in the United States and grassroots efforts to remove dams that obstruct anadromous fish passage. Artifishal turned the lens on a century's worth of fish hatchery practices and the detrimental effects they've had on wild salmon and steelhead populations.  In this episode, Tomine talks about the importance of family in his life and work, how and when he finds time to work on his current project—a novel, his love-affair with British Columbia steelhead, and why he's so damned frustrated with the whole carp thing.  This episode is sponsored by Decked and Patagonia Fly Fishing.  Subscribe to The Flyfish Journal to get 116 pages of pure flyfishing stoke delivered straight to your mailbox four times each year.
