  1. EP 210 Norman Maktima, Competitive Angling, Desert Trout, and More

    MAR 1

    EP 210 Norman Maktima, Competitive Angling, Desert Trout, and More

    We sit with Indigenous Pueblo angler Norman Maktima. Norman grew up in Pecos, just outside Santa Fe, fishing the Pecos River with his father, a place that shaped both his angling and his identity as a descendant of the Pueblos of San Felipe, Laguna, and Hopi. He’s been immersed in fly fishing since childhood, splitting time between the water and the vise, and by 1997 he was already guiding for High Desert Angler and earning a spot on Team USA’s Youth Fly Fishing Team. Since then, he’s built an elite competitive career with international medals, a U.S. National Championship title, and appearances at world championships across Europe and North America. Today, Norman designs signature flies for Umpqua, runs NMaktima Fly Fishing featuring Pueblo-inspired designs - he guides on the San Juan River, and coaches the U.S. Women’s Fly Fishing Team, which recently took Team Gold along with individual Gold and Silver at the World Championships. Beyond competition, he’s deeply committed to teaching and sharing knowledge, especially within Indigenous communities, using fly fishing as a way to connect culture, water, and opportunity.

  2. EP 209 Chasing Roosterfish with Jeffery Feczko

    FEB 15

    EP 209 Chasing Roosterfish with Jeffery Feczko

    We sit with Jeffery Feczko, owner and guide of To The Gills in Baja California Sur, Mexico. From fly tying at a young age to guiding fisheries across the globe, Jeffery has built a life shaped by travel, salt, and fish. His twenties took him from Alaska, earning his 100-ton USCG Master Captain’s license, to destinations like the Seychelles, where guiding iconic atolls eventually led to burnout and a realization that living in waders year-round wasn’t the life he wanted. Drawn back to warm water and shore-based fishing, he went to Baja California Sur, where he now guides year-round in one of the most diverse and demanding fisheries on the planet. In this episode, we talk about why Baja stands above everywhere else he’s fished - the people, culture, food, and the mighty, mighty roosterfish.  GO FISHING WITH JEFFERY: https://tothegills.net/ Follow Jeffery on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tothegills/?hl=en  Find his WICKED flies: https://farbank.com/collections/rio-signature-tyer-jeffrey-feczko  ----- HOW TO HELP SO FLY: Please go leave us a review on APPLE PODCASTS.
