Hey everybody, welcome to what we'll call a special episode of the hunting collective.

I'm Ben O'Brien and today we are sitting in the Meadieder offices in Bosn, Montana and

I'm joined by Sam Lungren and our director of fishing here at Meadieder, Miles Note,

his first appearance on the podcast.

And the reason we wanted to get this one out to you guys is because something pretty

substantial is happening in our world and that is the passage of Bill S-47 and the House

representatives.

It's called the Natural Resource Management Act.

This bill passed by a margin of 363 to 62, what will be on Tuesday afternoon, February

26th.

And we wanted to turn on C-SPAN and try to be entertained, which we know would be tough.

And talk about this bill as it was discussed on the floor of the House and then voted on

which turned out to be a great result.

So we had a few guests, Steve Klein, TRCP and Lantoni, a back 100s anglers who have worked

both worked and championed, worked on and championed this bill to talk about what's

good, what's bad, what needs approved, what is there to celebrate.

What's the fight to say a lot of people that care about conservation worked hard on this

piece of legislation and we believe overall it's a good thing, although we will go over

some of the more negative aspects of the bill and the way our politics work.

So hopefully you enjoy this special episode of the Honey Collective, straight from both

Montana.

Hey boys, how's it going Miles?
