Today is a special episode featuring none other than my Mom. My mom was the first one to introduce me to fly fishing and she’s been my number 1 supporter of Wild Fly since Day 1. Just last year, she left her job to come work for me full time to handle our merch fulfillment operations. So anytime one of you orders a piece of gear from us, she is the one handling it. In this episode, we talk about what it’s been like for her to step into this position, especially with me living in Utah now. We also dive into our family lineage in fly fishing, her upbringing in the outdoors and what the early days of Wild Fly looked like. I have always wanted to have  a conversation like this with her and I’m excited to share it with all of you.

On this episode of the podcast, we sit down with Alex Henderson to breakdown our week of fishing in Alaska. Alex is a Wild Fly subscriber who originally reached out to us last year about making a film in Alaska. He was a prominent character in our latest Alaska film and he's turned into a great friend. We talk about what our week in Alaska really looked like, our day to day schedule and some off-camera shenanigans that didn't make the film.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Bob Ledda of All Alaska Outdoors & Alex Henderson. Bob is an Alaskan Bush Pilot, Physician, & Fly Fishing Lodge Owner. Alex is a Wild Fly subscriber who connected us with Bob and helped make our Alaska trip happen. We were fortunate enough to stay at All Alaska Outdoors, this past June, and fish with Bob. If you've seen our recent Alaska film then you know exactly what we're talking about. Bob is truly one of the most fascinating guests we've had on the podcast. His passion for life is contagious and it was fascinating learning about how he became a bush pilot, physician and lodge owner over the last 30 years.
