Episode 30 - Todd catches his first fish and then trout fly fishing. Discuss nets and  making custom nets. Breaking jinxes. Chris finally figures out his GoPro. Zero luck with the toothy critters, but another good week fishing for trout on local waters.  Ross makes it out to fish, but doesn't find any luck.

Episode 29 - Matt, Chris, and Ross in studio. Discuss the week's adventures fishing for trout. Cooper gets trout Sunday on the dry fly. Cooper updates his GoPro review again. Mixed weekend for Matt fishing for trout and toothy critters.  Matt goes lights out Monday  on Grannoms though, despite fishing being cut short due to loss of net.  Matt provides feedback on his new vest/backpack. Great marketing on Fishpond's part as Matt loses one net and almost loses a second (Fishpond nets).  Apparently the "net slot" is a ploy to get you to buy more nets. Ross updates regarding injuries, gun shows, and business.

Episode 28 - Todd Reed joins in studio. It's opening weekend of trout in Pennsylvania and Cooper sucked.  Matt has moderate success.  Clearly a lot of trout fishing rust had to be knocked off.  Matt catches a nice brownie with Cooper's assistance. Cooper provides a GoPro review. Discuss new equipment options for gear storage and camera usage. 

Episode 27 - Plans are discussed for the upcoming opener for trout.  Discuss wish list items for chasing trout.  Matt has a minor Exxon Valdez situation requiring motor and raft repairs. No toothy critters this weekend.  Discuss future watercraft options as Smithfly has apparently gone under. Get ready for Cooper cam as Cooper will be finally breaking out his new GoPro.  

Episode 26 - No much fishing this week due to work schedules.  Matt attempts a work weekend at camp, but he is thwarted in his efforts by fishing and rodents.  Not to let their little deaths be in vain, he has commenced training the trout to eat the mice.  First two disappear beneath ripples.  Mouse patterns in the summer should be epic behind camp.  Test run of the new fish finder on the raft with mixed results.  Matt loses focuses and misses a good fish.  Also, realizes the error in his strategy, but far too late.

Episode 25 - The sun, moon, and weather align for a near perfect week of musky fishing.  Much like The Perfect Storm tragedy strikes, to a far lesser degree. Matt returns for the one that got away.  The belief in the terribleness of people is reaffirmed.  Ross and Matt make it out fishing and almost go for a Missouri Boat Ride.  New water is discovered.  It's enticing and will need to be revisited without waning light. Promise made, promised kept (regarding non-drunk podcasting; delayed due to St Patrick's Day as practiced).

Episode 24 - Lessons learned! In life and fishing. Fishing was limited this week due to terrible conditions. Too much ice on lakes, but not enough to fish them.  Rivers and creeks are blown out.  Found one to float.  Despite poor conditions, we find more success than we deserved.  Lessons were learned because mistakes cost fish.  Cost a couple this weekend.

Episode 23 - *Warning* Large amount of alcohol was consumed prior to the recording of this episode. Designated driver was used for safety. - Fly rods are back! And with a vengeance.  Most successful week ever chasing toothy critters for the crew. It's a real shame it wasn't in Kentucky for the Kentucky River Musky Classic (I'm gonna be bitter. Especially hearing a team caught 5 first day).  Number of firsts for the gang.  Chris chalks up his first musky ever.  Matt finally gets his trophy pic (of a musky). Ross starts a fire stream side. Todd catches a fly to the head. The one thing we can all agree on, we hate spin fishermen.

Episode 22 - Sean does not literally break the ice, but he goes ice fishing for the first time.  On a side note, Sean came North for the weekend.  We discuss the week's fishing adventures. New gear and new gear ideas.  Also, discuss Sean's first impressions of ice fishing for those thinking of joining the adventure.  Time is running out if you wanna try.  We are all eagerly awaiting "soft" water.  Love ice fishing, but really missing the fly rods. Share some old stories, including some wild stories with Italian sports cars. 

Episode 21 - Matt & Chris in studio. Love is in the air, but all Matt finds is desolate loneliness on the lake. Cooper spent the week sick, but now has thankfully recovered. The boys try a new spot, with limited success.   The new Chippewa River's arrive and they are beautiful!  Jinx is off them first time out.  Apparently though, Matt has forgotten how to use tip ups as he loses some hefty fish all weekend.
