An intense and in- depth technical podcast on streamers that concludes and complements a streamer trilogy with the first recorded episodes with friends Kelly Galloup and Tommy Lynch. Guest: Rich Strolis- author of "Catching Shadows" and commercial fly tyer, along with host and author Matthew Supinski dive deep into the history and evolution of the modern articulated streamer and the talented fly tying names that make up this new age streamer addiction and passion. Together they give you a "books on tape" analysis of the intense prey/predator hunt by defining the sporting tactical chase, reading water, predatorial fish behaviors, casting styles required and presentation adjustments needed to succeed in this hunt 365 days a year. References are continuously made to its similarities to other types of fly fishing like dry flies and spey swinging that a illicit a taking intercept response from the fish to complete the chase are all in this 3 hour and 45 minute comprehensive discussion. The streamer's evolution from Jennings/ Welch/ Stevens/Lefty/ Clouser/ Shenk/ Dahlberg etc.- to the Traverse City Michigan ground-zero Troutsman masterpiece theater of Kelly Galloups's/Bob Linsenman's first streamer bible revolution are discussed-which inspired every new age streamer designer with names like Tommy Lynch, Michael Schmidt, Russ Madden, Lafkas, Jac Ford, Senyo, Chocklett etc. Along with the early saltwater influences from designers like Mark Sedotti, and so many more names too numerous to mention here you have the complete anthology of the modern streamer design. In the trout world it is all an honor and testimonial to the ultimate poster child of the new big articulated meat hunt and addiction from Michigan's Northwood's, to the White River in Arkansas to Montana and everywhere in the world they are found : the magnificent Truttasaurus leviathan brown trout - “the king of the savage kill", that host Supinski wrote about in his Brown Trout Nexus book - enjoy!

Whew!... the microphones are still smoking after this one! Sometimes some things just go to the breaking point in an age where cynicism, political correctness and fear to speak your opinions overshadow the true essence of the simple beauty and joy of fly fishing for trout and salmon. Hallowed Waters host Matthew Supinski and guest Kirk Deeter: book author and editor of Trout Unlimited’s TROUT Magazine, are not afraid to push the needle and speak the reality of these issues that now, unfortunately, spill into the quiet and soothing sport of fly fishing.  Bottom line: when is enough is enough, and where do you fit in? They discuss all the controversial elements that we now bring to the trout, salmon, and steelhead rivers. Elitism, vanity, and fish pictures/hero shots, obsessions with social media, the influx of river guides and who and what they are, the numbers game: bigger, better, faster, more now! Euro/competitive fishing, respecting home waters vs. destinations, marginal trout streams and rethinking our established paradigms, disruptive individuals and their contributions to making a difference, paying your dues as an angler, books and their importance, laws, and regulations to micro-manage each river system as riverkeepers, searching for Utopia, climate change, indigenous species nativism and which fish belong or don’t belong, foraging for food by a stream, love of brown trout and all wild trout and salmon that still luckily swim…All this in the quest to make you rethink your game and be all about the fish!

The 90 years young Dr. Bob Bachman is well known for his Penn State four-year biological study of brown trout from a high-tech tree house on the limestone spring creek of Spruce Creek in Pennsylvania for his thesis paper. He knows them intimately and has fly fished for them and Atlantic salmon around the globe. In addition to his book authorships and fish commissioner of Pennsylvania and Maryland, he has pioneered and jump-started many wild trout fisheries in his tenure, along with his lecturing on them. He and brown trout book author and host: Matthew Supinski, delve deep into this 3-hour discussion of brown trout life survival strategies. The elusive, selective, adaptable, often predictable yet unpredictable natures, migratory and aggressive characteristics of the fish are discussed from a scientific and fisherman’s perspective and compared to other trout species. Many common myths, misconceptions, and basic misinformation about the fish and their daily lives are discussed in detail to help the angler better understand them and use it to improve their approach, fly selection, presentation, and timing for catching the brown trout of a lifetime.
