Freak for Fish - Marshall Wolf | Go Wildly Podcast

🎙 Go Wildly Podcast — Episode 22: Marshall Wolf | Freak for Fish 🌲 About This Episode On this episode of Go Wildly, we sit down with stream ecologist Marshall Wolf to talk about fish, fieldwork, and what it actually looks like to survey wild streams in the Rogue Valley. Marshall holds a Ph.D. in Aquatic Ecology from Utah State and has worked across the West studying fish populations, habitat connectivity, and watershed health. But Southern Oregon keeps pulling him back. After moving away multiple times, he’s returned again and again to work in Rogue Valley streams — surveying fish, analyzing creek systems, and helping better understand how water, habitat, and human impact intersect. In this conversation, we dive into: • How fish surveys actually work in Southern Oregon streams • What snorkeling in Oregon streams is like • What species are thriving (and struggling) in Rogue Valley watersheds • How fish tell us about the health of an ecosystem • Making friends with the outdoors • How to live a life in the dirt We spend most of this episode in the water — talking fish behavior, surveying structures, and the hidden complexity of small creeks that most people walk right past. Marshall also shares how his life moves between science and dirt — from aquatic ecology to trail building with the Rogue Valley Mountain Bike Association — and why the Rogue Valley continues to call him home. Go Wildly is a storytelling podcast centered on real people, outdoor culture, and meaningful conversations rooted in Southern Oregon — exploring how wild places influence creativity, purpose, resilience, and community. If you love outdoor podcasts, rivers, fish, local ecology, or understanding the landscapes you move through — you’re in the right place. 🎧 Follow Go Wildly YouTube: @gowildlypodcast Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/spotifygowildlypo...
