Wyoming Trout Streams on Horseback and Building Community Through Casting for Recovery with Missy Sprouse (Ep. 213)

“If you can get that cast where it feels good to you. Not to anybody else. Where you can get that fly where you want to.  I think that’s the biggest hurdle.”

Missy Sprouse

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Missy Sprouse, from Crowheart, Wyoming.  Missy learned to fly fish in East Tennessee after meeting her husband.  Together they moved to the remote Wind River Range of Wyoming to settle down and enjoy fishing and riding horses in the mountains. 

Missy is also a photographer and after falling in love with fly fishing, became excited about capturing the powerful experiences that women encounter through Casting for Recovery, an organization created to help women with breast cancer through fly fishing.  Missy also served on the organization’s national board for eight years. 

We discuss fly fishing in the Wind River Mountains, the special experience of reaching your trout stream on horseback, and building lasting communities of ladies through Casting for Recovery.

“I don’t think there’s anything sexier than a pretty cast.”
