Salt Strong Fishing

In this episode, we have on Aric from Heroes on the Water to share all of the amazing things they are doing to heal (and even save lives) through kayak fishing. Their organization is taking veterans, active military duty, police officers, firefighters, and all other heroes. Enjoy.

Want to catch more inshore saltwater fish on your next trip? Want someone to take all of the guesswork out of finding the best day and time to fish (to maximize the amount of strikes you get)? Then you've got to hear about this new fishing tide and forecast website called Smart Fishing Tides. It's custom built for inshore anglers targeting redfish, speckled trout, snook, flounder, mangrove snapper, and more.

For many years I struggled with church. Some were boring. Some churches seemed to be all about the money. Some churches seemed stuck on rituals (forgetting that their members came seeking help, support, and love). So I brought on pastor Johnny Kelly to discuss another hard-hitting topic... Why Church?

I first heard about Freedom Boat Club a couple years ago. A few of our Salt Strong members had sold their boats (after many years of frustration dealing with things breaking, long lines at boat ramps, etc) to join a boat club. I was skeptical at first, but the more I kept hearing about it, the more curious I became. Finally, I drove down to the local Freedom Boat Club here in Winter Haven, FL and asked for a tour. Here's what I discovered...

What a story!!! Listen in as angler Ronnie Green shares how losing his mother ended up opening up doors for him to quit his job and pursue his love for fishing. Not only that, but he landed his very own fishing TV show that has become one of the fastest growing shows out there. If you thought fishing stories were powerful, you haven't heard anything yet. Enjoy

Over the last year of doing these podcasts we've had numerous questions come up about Faith. In particular, confusion and hard-hitting questions about God, church, Christianity, etc. This is a pat of my life that I've struggled with (in terms of clear answers) so I'm setting out to interview pastors and other experts who can give us simple answers to Faith through stories. I hope you enjoy this first episode with pastor Johnny Kelley. His story is pretty amazing. Please give me feedback on how to make these Unchurched episodes even better.

Every college kid's dream is to be able to make some extra dough on the side doing something they love. How about getting paid to fish? This was impossible just twenty years ago, but with the rise of the Internet, young fishermen like Tyler Anderson have found ways to get paid to do what they love... fishing.

Wader Dave is back by popular demand! With fall weather quickly approaching, many Salt Strong audience members have been asking for wade fishing tips (in particular for redfish, snook, and trout). So we brought back on fellow Salt Strong Insider Wader Dave (the guy who wade fishes 220+ days per year). Listen in as Dave discusses his fall and winter tactics, best fishing lures for wading, and more.

What a story! Will Dunn from Take A Kid Fishing grew up a bit of a tough upbringing... he's been struck by lightning, shot, and bit by a rattlesnake... all signs from God that he needed to change his ways. Now he's making a massive impact with underprivileged kids through fishing. Enjoy!

It's custom fishing rod time! In this episode, we have Black Pelican Custom Rod owner Brandon Elinich to break down everything that goes into making your own rods. Brandon shares the biggest mistakes most anglers make when building their own rods, the best materials, the best rod blanks, and all of the tools you need. Enjoy and tight lines!
