District of Conservation: Senator Steve Daines on Public Lands, Fly Fishing, and the Montana Way of Life

 “I was very thankful that I got to grow up in Montana. In fact, I said the best decision I’ve ever made in my life was when I picked my great-great grandmother. She homesteaded north of Great Falls Montana, a long time ago back at the turn of the 19th century.”  — U.S. Senator Steve Daines (R-MT)
