As we prepare for season 3 of the show, we wanted to bring a special episode to you with our friend Ryan Johnston from Cast Hope. He has written a great new book called "Reel Salty," and the stories and conversations in this one were too good to save until the start of the season.

Hope you enjoy it, and we will see you starting in March for season 3 of the Fly Guides Podcast!
