This week, Preston sits down with private lake manager Shan O'Gorman. They discuss Shan's path to owning and operating his own lake management business and some of the highs and lows along the way. Shan also shares the story of how an airport layover eventually turned into building a large following on various social media accounts, where he shares lake management tips and uses science to combat common angling myths. We hope that you enjoy this episode!

Main point: "Catch and release is not always the perfect solution."
