We sit with Jeffery Feczko, owner and guide of To The Gills in Baja California Sur, Mexico. From fly tying at a young age to guiding fisheries across the globe, Jeffery has built a life shaped by travel, salt, and fish. His twenties took him from Alaska, earning his 100-ton USCG Master Captain’s license, to destinations like the Seychelles, where guiding iconic atolls eventually led to burnout and a realization that living in waders year-round wasn’t the life he wanted. Drawn back to warm water and shore-based fishing, he went to Baja California Sur, where he now guides year-round in one of the most diverse and demanding fisheries on the planet. In this episode, we talk about why Baja stands above everywhere else he’s fished - the people, culture, food, and the mighty, mighty roosterfish.

We sit with guide and angler Andrew Colston from Australia to chat all about an incredible, beastly, elusive fish, the MURRAY COD! This fish has fascinated us for years, but the truth is - we know NOTHING about it. So we brought Andrew on, a wicked angler who has been chasing these fish for years, to give us the low down. This episode is an intro to this incredible fish. We've only scratched the surface. Thanks for coming on, Andrew!

Follow Andrew on Instagram.

Book him for a day of fishing for murray cod!

Weeeeeeeee had a great day at the Franklin Club in Southern Ontario! We got to hit the water with Team Canada legend and still water trout expert Ian Troup. Ian took us out for a morning of fabulous trout fishing, and then we recorded a podcast in the clubhouse. The Franklin Club is a wicked, beautiful place to spend a sweet nature-forward day. The grounds are amazing, the water is splendid, and the fishing is next level. It's a fantastic place to learn still water fishing, and dial in different techniques. 

Thanks for having us Franklin Club! Thanks Ian for taking us out. 

Learn more about the Franklin Club here.

Book a day with Ian and learn or perfect still water fishing.
