Salt Strong Fishing

My coaching friend Chris is fond of saying, "Be the tree" when it comes to living securely in your identity.

In this episode, I go into a specific type of tree that is incredibly flexible, yet almost unbreakable... along with the life lessons we can learn from this.

Enjoy.

Ever fished a trout mud or a mullet mud?

It's when a MASSIVE school of trout and/or mullet come through a shallow area (like a flat) and create so much movement that the bottom stirs up a huge muddy zone.

Some of these trout muds are larger than a football field and are loaded with fish.

Listen in as we share how to fish a trout mud (and how not to fish a trout mud).

Enjoy.

Let me explain...

I'm not suggesting you ignore your family and loved ones.

Unless they start crushing your dreams like the story I share in this new episode.

Enjoy and much love.

I don't change up my lures often.

Slam Shady 2.0 is my confidence lure and that's usually what I stick with most of the day... but I was proven wrong today.

In today's podcast, Luke and I hit the water in Tampa to see which lure gets the most action.

Find out what happened.

Harvard has the longest-running study on happiness and health every done in America.

Listen in to their top 5 things that the happiest do to stay happy.

Pretty powerful.

The Chesapeake Bay boasts one of the most diverse fisheries in the United States. Not only does it cover over 4,400 square miles but it boasts over 11,000 miles of coastlines. In this episode, I sit down with a man who seems determined to fish every inch of that coastline to break down his perspective on this unique fishery.

Bob Lombardi is a Salt Strong Insider Member who fishes nearly the entire bay throughout the year targeting multiple species. In this one, Bob shares his thoughts on the best places to fish and some of his keys for success.

There are quite a few fishermen who swear that the smell of watermelon (or cut watermelon) on the water is a dead giveaway for awesome trout fishing.

So we brought on our panel of 4 anglers to discuss if they have ever experienced this watermelon trout fishing hack.

What do you think?

Where did we go wrong as a nation?

Listen in as I share a recent vote I saw that should have all of us rethinking how we're approaching this whole "being a Christian" thing.

Hint: our current approach is missing the mark.

We've been working a LONG time on this course.

Back in mid-2022, Capt. Peter Deeks approached us about creating the ultimate redfish course where redfish experts from around the country would share their best tips, shortcuts, and tricks to catching both slot reds and overslot reds.

Of course, we said YES!

Since then, Peter has been interviewing tons of different guides and redfish pros from every state to bring together the most comprehensive guide to catching redfish in any state (regardless if you're using live bait, cut bait, or lures).

Listen in as we share some of the things Peter learned himself while creating this course.

I had no idea how much influence social science had on wildlife policies (like certain fisheries, fish quotas, fishing closures, hunting restrictions, etc) until this podcast.

Listen in as Travis Thompson reveals how social science has been playing an important role in wildlife policies and politics.
