LightHawk Flies for PBS Documentary
In June 2006, volunteer pilot Doug Monger flew a filmmaker over the Paradise Valley and the Yellowstone River area in Montana for a short documentary called Against the Current.
Metamorph Films and Trout Unlimited collaborated to produce this 18 minute film that explores dewatering in the West, while pointing to realistic solutions available to anglers and ranchers alike. Against the Current
is projected to air on PBS and will be shown at film festivals and Trout Unlimited meetings, potentially reaching thousands of people. You can view the film on the Metamorph website.
