Fish Strong Podcast with Joe and Luke Simonds

In this episode, we have the flounder (aka fluke fishing) expert himself, John Skinner. If you've come across any amazing flounder fishing videos on YouTube (especially the underwater attack footage videos), there is a good chance it's from John Skinner. He has spent more time fishing for and studying these fish than anyone we know. He even wrote the book on Catching Summer Flounder. Enjoy the episode.

Podcast: Anchored with Donald Trump Jr.

It’s likely that Donald Trump Jr. needs no introduction.  Last June I had the opportunity to meet with Donald in New York City to find out more about his upbringing, passion for the outdoors, and — albeit brief — his stance on public land.  While this show has never been about people’s fathers, political conversation was also off the table, but my curiosity was not, and so I headed up the gold Trump Tower elevator to see what I might learn about the man the media has so much to say about.

Podcast: Anchored with Mark Bachmann

Mark Bachmann owns The Fly Fishing Shop in Welches Oregon, one of the most famous fly shops on the west-coast.  He started it in 1981 and has been an industry leader since.  I met up with Mark at his shop to see if I could share the story of one of America’s most valuable retailers, but what I learned was the story of a man who is much more than just a successful entrepreneur

The best organizations put their money where their mouth is and advocate successfully in support of anglers, wild trout fisheries and the environment and public lands where we recreate and trout live.
