Though often hard to swallow\, the reality fo r most people is that material wealth is the yardstick to which they jus tify their existence. A belief that excess equals success. But to the lu cky ones\, they understand that a life well lived is measured by the pos itivity of your impact on those around you. A proverbial life after deat h and the birth of a legacy. Curt Trout was one of those lucky few. In t his film\, we take a look into the life of a fishing legend and explore how one person’s passion can have a profound effect on a community\, a sport\, and a river. This is the story of a Trout.
