Learn before you buy! In this episode we chat with one of the modern legends of rod building, Joe Goodspeed. The discussion meanders through the ins-and-outs of rod construction, the history and trajectory of euro nymphing rods, and even what to look out for when selecting a rod. This episode is just stacked with information, and gives you a nice window seat into modern fly rod construction...something that we as anglers seem to know very little about.

We are back with part 2 of the Stillwater series!

This time we get really detailed on rigging and techniques, shining some light on the deepest part of the stillwater game. Lot's to unpack here including Lance's modular leader recipe and tips on the "count-down" game!

Lakes, ponds, reservoirs...aka STILLWATER! These underultilized and underrated fisheries are often over looked by fly fishers who generally prefer fishing rivers or streams and tend to hyper focus on targeting trout. In part 1 of this 2 part series, we make a compelling case for stillwater fishing whether it be for trout or warm water species. Either way it's a LOT of fun and should be approached by fly anglers more regularly! Tune in as we break it down for you, gear, boats, flies, spools, lines, dad jokes...yea all that stuff.

Few sports have so much lore around them as our beloved fly fishing does...but how much of the "tails" (pun intended!) are true? Will your favorite myth get BUSTED? Or will it stand the test of time? Join us as we have Lance call true or false on the biggest claims in fly fishing.

Big is not always better! Small stream fishing can be your ticket to ultimate seclusion and a truly unique fishing experience all together. Better yet, chances are, you have one near by. In this episode we break down the tactics, gear, places, and pain points of angling on smaller streams. It's a beast of it's own, albiet tiny!

This is Season 2, Episode 2, Part 2!!! TWO TWO TWO

In this episode we continue further down the list of Lance's most commonly seen fly fishing mistakes. It's a long one and there are a lot of really juicy things to think about and dissect in here. From tactics to fishing philosophy - we hope you enjoy! Fish on!

This is the season premiere! And what better way to kick it off than with a cheatsheet to success?! Lance goes through the mistakes he sees most commonly when guiding and in competition. Streamline your game with part.1 of "what NOT to do"!

Before the NATK podcast was a real thing, George Daniel helped me take it from concept to reality by recording 2 pilot episodes. This is the 2nd one. At the time, we were discussing having a subscription podcast that ran parallel to the regular NATK programming. This is the pilot of that series. In this epsiode, George gets deeper on Tenkara rigging, euro nymphing on a tenkara rod, small stream fishing, an unsung hero of the fly fishing industry as well as winter fishing - specifically for steelhead on a euro setup. There is a lot unpacked in short amount of time! We hope you enjoy!

Before I had a podcast, I wanted to see if I could actually pull this off, so I did a couple pilots. George Daniel was nice enough to co-host with me and we did an episode on Tenkara fishing. There is a LOT of fishy stuff in here and it's not just Tenkara-based. Grab your "telescopes" and strap in for this Season 1 PREQUEL!

In this epsiode we cover at length what it means to fish "streamers" Streamers require their own approach and are often the gateway to fly fishing from conventional angling tactics. Tune in as Lance Egan and Ray Bley give us the what's what on this popular modern age tactic.
