Brown TroutLand: Central Finland with Jani Himanko

Our destination is the Troutland region of central Finland with Hall of Fame fly angler, Jani Himanko, owner of the world famous Kellankoski Lodge. Central Finland is home to some of the best fly fishing in Europe and the happiest people on the planet, not to mention brown trout the size of your leg. As Jani says, we don’t take pictures of 20” fish. A 25-year veteran of the industry, Jani writes for local hunting and fishing magazines and was inducted to the Finnish Fishing Hall of Fame in 2023. He makes the case for Finland and the famous baitfish hatch, plus stories of Arctic char and sea run browns, Russian helicopters and the Kota Peninsula, and fly fishing Greenland and Norway. Bonus: the famous surfboard fly and why you should drink Loncaro. With host, Steve Haigh Be the first to know about new episodes.

Fly Fishing Obsession with Jim Aylsworth

We journey with passionate fly angler and author, Jim Aylsworth of Houston Texas who shares his fly fishing adventures from around the US and the world. Jim has fly fished over 300 locations, most of them with a guide, from the tranquil waters of Guadalupe River in Texas to the remote reaches of the Kamchatka peninsula, and from the awe-inspiring giants in Jurassic Lake Argentina to Jim’s personal best brown trout from the Allegheny River. Jim is also an accomplished writer, sharing his adventures through articles in Fly Fisherman Magazine, Trout Magazine, and FlyFishers Magazine, and has a knack for squeezing in a little fly fishing on his business trips. Stick around to the end for a great story of how Jim got himself in the Billings Montana newspaper for all the wrong reasons, and what makes for an exceptional guide.

Fish Like Mike in Western New York with Mike Loughran

Today we have die-hard fly angler, educator, and outdoorsman, Mike Loughran from Buffalo, New York who shares his inspiring adventures with salmon and steelhead, opossums and owls, coyote dens and wasps nests, and his surprise appearance on the Today Show. Mike’s decade-long obsession with fly fishing began with a Christmas gift – a fly rod combo and waders. Despite his busy schedule teaching gym class to grade school kids, he has logged more days and caught more steelhead, salmon, and brown trout than most anglers do in a lifetime. You’ll want to fish like Mike after you listen to this one!
