Today I give Derek DeYoung a call and we talk about his Tarpon, Permit, and other saltwater adventures.  He has spent a lot of time on the water down in the keys chasing these fish, and has some awesome stories!  Derek makes his living creating amazing art work that is inspired by his fishing adventures.

If 20 inch plus brown trout have always been a dream of yours, then look no further than the White River in Arkansas.  John Holsten has been guiding there for many years, and he tells us all about the fishery, what to use, and when to go!

We all know some fishing trips are better than others.  Some are just plain terrible.  Today Matt Peisert joins me to tell about his recent disaster.  What was meant to be a tarpon filled adventure to Mexico ended up being one of the worst stories I have ever heard.

Today Jon Osborn joins me to discuss his most recent book  Flyfisher's Guide to Michigan.  We discus how he came to write the book, what the book covers, and his history in the sport of fly fishing.  This book is nothing short of amazing.  It is an incredibly useful tool, and I highly recommend picking up a copy.  

Matt Zudweg is a fly fishing guide on the mighty Muskegon River in the state of Michigan.  He specializes in spey fishing for steelhead, and top water smallmouth bass in the summer.  On top of being a phenomenal fisherman, he is also an amazing artist.  

This is probably the most entertaining episode to date.  We cover a wide range of topics!  Sturgeon fishing, smallmouth bass, hidden UP destinations, canoeing across the world, and why Backcountry Hunters and Anglers is the fastest growing conservation organization out there!  This one is a great listen, and I promise you wont regret it!!!

On this episode I give John McMillan a call, and we discuss wild trout and salmon.  John is a Science Director for Trout Unlimited's Wild Steelhead Initiative currently, but has worked as a Fisheries Scientist for trout and Steelhead all up and down the west coast.  He is easily one of the most knowledgeable guest I have had on the show, and really enjoyed this one!!!

This week Cam Venderhoff and I sit down to ask Brady Stasa about his time spent guiding in Alaska.  We discuss the different types of salmon and trout that can be targeted, what the area is like, wildlife encounters, and much more!

On this episode I discuss my vision of what I am trying to accomplish with this podcast, how setting goals can lead to more success, how networking with others is key to speeding up learning curves, and I announce a 2 day guided fishing trip that I will be giving away next year!

On this installment I give Joe Cermele a call.  Joe is the fishing editor for Field & Stream, and Outdoor life.  He also runs the Hook Shots webisode series and podcast.  Joe has a tremendous amount of fishing knowledge.  He has written articles on too many types of fish to count.  Today we discuss two very exciting fish, snakehead, and striper.
