Dylan Tomine has a passion for steelhead trout. Or an obsession. Or an addiction. His steelhead passion has brought him close to beautiful places, driven him far from stability, and lost him some loving relationships.This is a story about how an obsession can take priority over everything. How it might provide both purpose and isolation. And how it isn’t guaranteed to last forever.Related LinksDylan TomineWild Fish ConservancyWild Steelhead CoalitionWe can only make Ten Thousand Things because listeners support us.
