Angler Quest Podcast

We're traveling to two very different warm weather fishing destinations this time on the Angler Qwest Podcast.

First, Lake Powell fishing guide Jesse Romrell talks about that body of water and the challenges of navigating a giant impoundment with lots of waves and boat traffic.

He also describes some of his favorite fishing techniques for bass, stripers and walleye.

Then we head to the Florida Keys with Pat Goodwin.

Pat is a Michigan guy who trailers his Angler Qwest to Florida each winter to enjoy the warm weather and hot fishing the Keys offers.

A great story of selflessness and heroism this month on the Angler Qwest podcast.

Joey Baird is a hard core angler and public servant who nearly drowned while saving an elderly lady trapped in raging floodwaters.

He later went on to catch a new state record catfish and won $10,000.

Rather than put that money toward his new Angler Qwest, Joey donated the winnings to the local fire department for a rescue boat.

Hear that story and the thinking behind his generosity this month on the AQ podcast.

Brad describes his trolling tactics for walleye and how he uses jet divers and spoons in deep water, but switches over to crank baits in shallow.

He also talks about how the Angler Qwest "rocket launcher" rod holders are perfect for running multiple lines and storing those rods out of the way when not in use.

It's an interesting conversation with a very interesting guy this month on the Angler Qwest Podcast.
