I don't get bent out of shape to often about fly fishing. But one thing does make me look sideways at what is happening in our little angling community.

Sound hypocritical or oxymoronic? Hear me out.

A lot of the battles that are fought online or over fly shop counters are akin to two sculpins jockeying for position on the bottom of a giant pool. They don't matter that much. They're much ado about nothing. They are controversy for controversy's sake. They're not worth it.

In this podcast, I discuss two areas where people get fired up: fly fishing "celebrities" and product reviews. Check it out, think about it, and let me know what you think.
