How a Hurricane Affected Filming Our TV Show

What happens when an offshore hurricane develops while you're filming a fishing TV show? In this episode of Diving Deep, we're taking you behind the scenes as we dodge the storm's outer bands, make the most of every weather window, and head offshore from Palm Beach, Florida, in search of vermilion snapper. We also share the story behind our deepest free dives yet, with Emily reaching nearly 90 feet before putting those skills to the ultimate test on a spearfishing trip in the Bahamas once the storm had passed. From changing conditions to last minute game plans, we're breaking down how the weather shaped everything…

We Can't Get a Fish to the Boat - TOO MANY SHARKS?

Shark tagging in the Gulf of the Florida Keys and a grind that lasted until 2 a.m. this trip had it all. 🌝 Our goal was to catch a trophy cubera snapper, but despite coming up short, the night ended with Emily landing her personal best mutton snapper after MANY hours of fishing.

Guatemala's Most Underrated Fishing Adventure

We may have traveled to Guatemala to chase roosterfish, but like so many of our favorite adventures, we came home with much more than great fishing stories. In this episode, we share what makes roosterfish such an incredible species to target, relive some memorable moments from the trip, and talk about why traveling to new places is one of the greatest gifts fishing has given us. From meeting local people and experiencing a different culture to seeing a new part of the world through a fresh perspective, sometimes the fish are just the excuse—and the experiences along the way become the memories that last the longest. 🎣🌎✨
