The Redfish Podcast

In this episode of The Redfish Podcast, I have owner of Bajio Sunglasses ,Al Perkinson, on. We get into everything from sunglasses, to Bill Dance, to arapaima, to the retail fishing industry and of course, Redfish. I first fell in love with the mission of the crew at Bajio which is why I was so excited to sit down and listen to what Al had to say about not only the business, but also where the idea behind it all came from. He is definitely someone that has seen all aspects of our industry and has chosen to dig against the grain of normal retail operations in order to do the things that need to be done to save the places that we love most as fishermen. Tune in to see for yourself and put on a pair of Bajio's on your next fishing trip if you want to see the difference out there.

In this episode of The Redfish Podcast, I go on a solo journey to update everyone on the happenings of late as far as redfish policy here in Louisiana, catch up on what's been going on the past few months, and of course you know I didn't end the episode without a good rant somewhere in there. Sorry it's been so long everyone. Hoping to get back on track with the normal, entertaining segments and add some new guest here and there soon. As always, let me know what you think and remember, while some fought for more, when the dust settled, redfish in Louisiana finally got a much needed win.

As the title ensues, we get back together for a long overdue podcast full of all the redfish rambling you'll need to hear. We get a little insight into what King Cakes are best, how the fishing has been this past winter, and of course, plenty of info on what has gone on in the world of policy from redfish to menhaden. Stay tuned and make sure to listen to the end to get a bit of my "quick update", turned monologue, as well as some info that you probably never knew you had at your finger tips.

In this episode, we sit down for a quick rundown of two agenda items on the upcoming October 5th meeting. As we saw back in July, this will be another crucial meeting to furthering the notion of change for the better in our redfish fishery. We touch on the menhaden industry as that is a topic coming up as one of the agenda items, as well as go over the long list of reasons to support this NOI and LDWF in this matter while also touching on the short list of opposition claims and why some of them will not hold up in the upcoming meeting. We also wanted to remind everyone about the upcoming comment period that is coming to an end so hurry up and get your comments in to [email protected]. Shane takes one of the topics personally and tells us how he was quite literally born in the waters of Port Sulpher while Dave tells us about his love for math and how some peoples math just aint mathin. You're surely not going to want to miss this one so tune in and check it out! Be on the lookout for another one soon and don't forget to use that hashtag #OneForLouisiana because you may find yourself in line for some recognition and cool prizes. Thanks and remember, show up and lets make a difference for the betterment of this fishery...

In the fourth episode of The Redfish Podcast we sit down to talk about the latest commission meeting regarding redfish from the first week of July and finally get to speak on a decision made by the commission that is the first of its kind in the past 35 years. With absolutely so much to talk about with that last meeting and the steps we have coming in the future, we tabled some of our normal segments for a future podcast and got down to the meat of what is to come regarding this latest notice of intent, the good and the bad things we have to look forward to, as well as a bit of "panic news' that has been leaking from the side of legislature that is against the movement to make redfishing here the best that it possibly can be. Tune in and don't be left out of the loop. Of course, as always, feel free to hit us up ([email protected]) with any comments questions or concerns you may have as we are really looking for your input based upon this latest podcast as well as the latest results to come out of the capitol. Be on the lookout for another one soon and don't forget to use that hashtag #OneForLouisiana because you may find yourself in line for some recognition and cool prizes. Thanks and looking forward to seeing ya on the water...

In the second episode of The Redfish Podcast, we attempt to simplify the stock assessment completed by the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, talk about how clouds and wind suck miserably, get a not so secret fly from the Baptist Barkeep himself, as well as hear about a simpler time in life, not long after the invention of the combustion engine, when Shane started fly fishing for Redfish.
