On this episode we’re joined by Aaron’s long-time friend and trout junkie, Matt Goehler. Matt has been fishing his entire life, and has specifically targeted trout, salmon, and steelhead for the past 15 years. Matt also is the co-owner of RBM Jigs/Lake Effect Lures, and runs the Michigan Trout Addicts website, Facebook, and Instagram pages. Matt has a passion for trout fishing that many only could dream of having. We talk about how he got his start fishing at a young age, how he learned the trout game, where he sees Lake Effect Lures and Michigan Trout Addicts heading, the work-life-hustle balance, The Opener Tournament, and how to find and fish those trout hidey holes that all of us want to find. This was a fun podcast to record as we learned quite a bit about trout behavior, where to find trout, how to fish trout waters, and how Matt is using his trout fishing passion to make a difference on and off the waters of the Great Lakes.

Remember, all proceeds from Michigan Trout Addicts gear, and 20% of The Opener Tournament registration, goes straight to helping the cause and is donated to helping children with chromosomal abnormalities!
