When it comes to chasing big smallmouth in skinny water, few know the game like Duane Hada and Tadd Fore. This episode takes you deep into the art of summer fly fishing on clear, low-water Ozark streams.

Whether you're an expert or novice this episode is packed with tactics, conservation talk, and some good old-fashioned Ozark storytelling (a lost phone rescue that rivals many fish tales).

What is The Ozark Podcast?

In the Ozarks, people have always lived in rhythm with the natural world. Hunting, fishing, and living off the land, aren't just things we do, it's who we are. And though our lives are inextricably linked to the land we live on, we've never been more disconnected from it. So join us, as we travel across the region to bring you the voices of the Ozarks to deepen your connection with the land, sharpen your skills in the outdoors, and help you learn what it means to be an Ozarker.

Our hosts are ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kyle Veit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kyle Plunkett⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - and our producer is ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Daniel Matthews⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
