    And of course… plenty of trash talk.

  • The Most Calculated Angler in the Game | Jon Miller

    Jon Miller built his name by putting his process on display.

    Through his YouTube videos, he’s shown a different side of fishing… one that’s rooted in discipline, observation, and calculated decision making. Jon doesn’t rely on luck. He studies fish behavior, tracks seasonal patterns, and forms his own hypotheses on why fish do what they do.

    In this episode, we break down his technical approach to targeting big trout and what it takes to stay consistent when conditions change. From understanding weather and water movement to dialing in repeatable patterns, Jon treats fishing like a system that can be studied, tested, and refined.

    Calm, methodical, and always in control, Jon represents a different level of thinking on the water.

    If you’ve ever wanted to truly understand the “why” behind catching fish, this is one you don’t skip.

    Topics include:
    • Big trout behavior and patterning
    • Seasonal trends and environmental factors
    • Building your own fishing hypotheses
    • Eliminating guesswork on the water
    • Developing a repeatable system

  • Ben LaVergne: Golf was too easy... So he chose Fishing

    In this episode, we sit down with Ben LaVergne — a former pro-level golfer turned full-blown Louisiana outdoorsman who somehow manages to be just as dangerous with a fishing rod as he was with a golf club.

    Ben’s not just a fisherman… he’s a swamp tour guide, storyteller, and one of the most entertaining guys you’ll ever be around. The kind of dude that can make you laugh your ass off one minute and then casually drop real-deal knowledge about fishing, the marsh, and how to actually catch fish the next.

    We dive into:

    • His transition from competitive golf to life on the water

    • What it really takes to be a top-tier angler in Louisiana

  • The King of Seabrook: Justin Bordelon

    Meet Justin Bordelon: the Seabrook Angler King.

    Edgy. Controversial. Unapologetically himself.

    This is the guy who doesn’t just fish… he rewrites what’s possible on the water. A straight-up slayer of fish whose instincts are so dialed in, you’d think he’s being studied in a lab somewhere (honestly, he probably should be).

    But behind the reputation, the hot takes, and the results? He’s genuinely a good dude. The kind of guy who’ll outfish you all day, then turn around and tell you exactly how he did it.

    In this episode, we sit down with Justin to talk mindset, patterns, pressure, and what it really takes to stay on top when everyone’s watching—and judging.

    If you like your fishing talk raw, real, and a little controversial… this one’s for you.
