    Manny Puig is a renowned wildlife expert, animal handler, and television personality, best known for his appearances on the hit TV shows Jackass and Wildboyz. With a deep passion for wildlife and a fearless approach to working with dangerous animals, Manny became a fan favorite on these unconventional, often outrageous, programs. His expertise in handling animals such as alligators, snakes, and crocodiles earned him recognition in the world of animal handling and made him a standout character in the Jackass universe. In addition to his work on these shows, Manny also starred in his own TV series. He had a show on the Outdoor Channel called Savage Wild, where he showcased his skills and knowledge in dealing with the world's most dangerous animals. Later, he became a central figure in Gator Boys, a popular series on Animal Planet that focused on capturing and rescuing alligators, especially in the Florida Everglades. In both shows, Manny's calm demeanor and expertise with reptiles and other wild creatures shone through, making him a trusted figure in the world of wildlife conservation and animal rescue. Manny’s career as a wildlife expert extends beyond television. He has spent years studying and working with exotic animals, including sharks, venomous reptiles, and large carnivores. His commitment to conservation and animal welfare is evident in his efforts to educate the public about these often misunderstood creatures, despite the more chaotic nature of his on-screen appearances. Puig's fearlessness and devotion to wildlife have solidified him as a memorable figure in both the reality TV and wildlife communities. We hope you enjoy Manny's story as much as we did. He is truly one of the most remarkable humans we’ve had the privilege of interviewing on our podcast. Manny's upbringing is nothing short of extraordinary, and his journey could easily fill an entire podcast on its own. Raised in Cuba, his childhood was marked by hardship, including the trauma of his mother being imprisoned and his father’s tragic murder. Despite these unimaginable challenges, Manny’s resilience and passion for wildlife propelled him to become the incredible person he is today. We hope his story inspires you to feel a deep sense of gratitude for your own journey. Thank you again for joining us, Manny. Your story is one that will stay with us for a long time.

    John Abplanalp - Life of the Party

    John Abplanalp has lived an extraordinary life centered around fishing, including being one of the pioneers on the flats of Montauk, where he was among the first to sight-cast for striped bass from his skiff. His family was fortunate to pursue big dreams, thanks to his father, who designed and invented the aerosol valve used in spray cans. Fast forward a few years, and after his father purchased the small island of Walker's Cay in the Bahamas, John found himself chasing his newfound passion for bonefish. Walker's Cay became the jumping off point for Flip Pallot’s iconic show, Walker's Cay Chronicles, which captivated audiences and drew them in heart and soul. John and a group of like-minded friends often used the island's freighter, the Sea Lion V, as their base for fishing, sleeping, and partying—all without a care in the world. Years later, many of these individuals, including legends like Kreh, Pallot, Cardenas, Popovics, and Dixon, have become household names, representing some of the luckiest and most influential figures in the fishing world. In today’s podcast, John takes us on a nostalgic journey back to those unforgettable days, sharing his passion for both the sport and his ongoing efforts to support Bonefish & Tarpon Trust (BTT) in their mission to preserve these incredible species for future generations.

  6. Lenny Berg - Fishing Florida In The 1950's

    1. JAN.

    Lenny Berg - Fishing Florida In The 1950's

    Over the years, as I’ve participated in various fishing tournaments, I’ve often noticed the names etched on the trophies from past events. One name that always stood out to me was Lenny Berg. He made history by winning the first inaugural Don Hawley Tarpon Tournament in 1976, with the legendary Billy Knowles as his guide. Lenny also triumphed in the Fall Fly Bonefish Tournament three times, alongside his guide, Steve Huff. One of his most remarkable feats was landing a 128-pound tarpon on 10-pound test, setting a world record that was later invalidated when the IGFA removed the 10-pound tippet category for world records, erasing those catches from the record books. Lenny’s fishing journey also had him alongside some of the sport’s most influential pioneers, including Woody Sexton, Eddie Wightman, Hank Brown, Stu Apte, Guy de Valdene, Jimmy Lopez, Hal Chittum, and John Emory, just to name a few. In today’s podcast, we not only explore Lenny’s incredible life in fishing, but we’re also joined by his son, Elliot Berg. Like his father, Elliot is an outstanding angler, but he’s also an ingenious boat designer in his own right. We discuss both Lenny’s legacy and Elliot’s work in pushing the boundaries of boat design, including his contributions to the Maverick Boat Company, which revolutionized flats skiffs and became one of the most successful brands in the industry for decades.

  7. Carter Andrews - "The Obsession of Carter Andrews"

    Carter Andrews - "The Obsession of Carter Andrews"

    One lesson we’ve all learned over the years is to never judge a book by its cover—especially when the subject is Carter Andrews. This towering figure, both in size and hair, is eclipsed only by the immense love he has for his family and his passion for fishing. His obsession is woven into every breath he takes. Carter is all in—every second, every day. While we’re all connected by water and the creatures that call it home, few of us live and breathe it the way Carter does. We turn to those who bring the vibrant stories of fishing and adventure to life, whether online or on television. For me, it was Flip who sparked the fire, Jose’ who carried the flame, and Curt—well, who can forget "The American Sportsman"? Life is made up of chapters that lead us to the next, and Carter Andrews is currently writing his at the highest level. His hit show, The Obsession of Carter Andrews, is nothing short of captivating—at times, even awe-inspiring. His journeys seem endless, chasing stories far beyond the horizon to remote places most of us will never visit. Yet, through his lens, I’m right there with him—on the edge of my seat—because he’s the real deal, and his team brings the magic to life. On this podcast, we had the privilege of visiting Carter’s home, farm, ranch, and yes, even his “cave.” We had a blast exploring the immense world of his life. Trust me, you can’t help but love the man.

  8. Tim Choate - Sport Fishing Visionary

    04.12.2024

    Tim Choate - Sport Fishing Visionary

    Tim Choate is a pioneering force in Billfish Conservation and one of the most influential figures in the world of sport fishing. Growing up in Islamorada, Florida, Tim was introduced to the world of blue-water fishing by his close friend, Bucky Stark. His passion for marlin fishing quickly became an obsession, leading him to set numerous records that left the sport stunned. In 1995, his boat Magic caught an astonishing 2,140 billfish in a single year. Choate's fishing adventures took him to the Great Barrier Reef, where he spent five years honing his skills. In 1982, alongside Captain Peter Wright, he helped land the season's largest black marlin, weighing an impressive 1,212 pounds. While Tim’s early career was defined by record-breaking catches and an insatiable drive to land the biggest fish, his passion eventually shifted toward conservation. Witnessing the detrimental impact of commercial fishing on marlin and sailfish populations, Tim became a key advocate for their protection. His efforts culminated in the passing of the Billfish Conservation Act of 2012, which banned the commercial sale of marlin and sailfish in the continental U.S. In addition to his legislative work, Tim co-founded the Billfish Foundation, an organization dedicated to highlighting the economic and ecological value of recreational sport fishing over commercial harvesting. He was also an early advocate for circle hooks, pushing for their use long before scientific studies proved their effectiveness in reducing fish mortality from gut-hooking. Tim’s contributions to the sport and conservation were recognized with numerous honors, including: 2012: Frank Johnson Trophy for Personal Achievement in Advancement of Big Game Sport Fishing, awarded by Guy Harvey Outpost. 2013: IGFA Conservation Award. 2016: Inducted into the International Game Fish Association (IGFA) Hall of Fame. Tim Choate’s legacy is one of unmatched dedication to the preservation of billfish and the broader marine environment, and his impact continues to be felt by anglers and conservationists alike.
