Talking Fish Traps w/Emma Helverson

Update: 2025-08-28

Description

We’re joined by Emma Halverson, Executive Director of Wild Fish Conservancy, to explore the historic return of fish traps to the Pacific Northwest. From their cultural roots and conservation benefits to the launch of the first Columbia River trap fishery in nearly 100 years, Emma shares how this ancient method could reshape the future of salmon and steelhead recovery.
