In this episode of The Sustainable Angler podcast, I interview American Fly Fishing Trade Association (AFFTA) CEO Ben Bulis, Communications & Membership Director Matt Smythe and Conservation Director Regan Nelson. We discuss everything from the history of AFFTA, to important conservation initiatives like: Pebble Mine, Magnuson Stevens reauthorization, the Clean Water Rule and how AFFTA has formed a Kick Plastic Coalition in partnership with Costa Sunglasses to make the International Fly Tackle Dealer Show (IFTD) a single-use plastic free trade show!
