She Broke 100 Fly Fishing RECORDS Before She Turned 17 - River Convos w/ Heather Harkavey: 'The Drift' Ep.2.

Welcome back to 'The Drift'! In this episode, we go for a float down our local river with angler and educator Heather Harkavey. Born in Florida, Heather spent her youth chasing fly-fishing records, breaking over 100 of them before she even turned 17! Now, Heather spends her time running a non-profit called "Fish For Change," a youth-focused fishing program in Guanaja, Mexico, which gets kids of all ages on the water + teaches them about the mental health and community benefits of fly fishing. We've got one more seat in the boat... come along for a drift! Thanks to Heather for taking the time to come fish with us!
