    Lance Kittel - Pesca Vida, Jungle Streams and Chasing Big Dreams (Ep. 51)

    Lance Kittel is the founder of Pesca Vida, a custom fly rod company that’s as much about soul as it is about graphite. In this episode, Lance joins Ed and Reid to talk about building rods from scratch, traveling the world with a fly rod, and why a two-inch fish can be just as satisfying as a 150-pound tarpon. We cover golden dorado in Bolivia, jungle missions in Colombia, and how a goofy grin and a fly rod can open doors in just about any country. Lance shares how he built Pesca Vida out of thread, glue, a first date and an obsession. But more than gear, we talk about the mindset: community outside your community, the joy of learning from others, and not being afraid to get loud in a traditionally quiet sport. If you’re into DIY trips, beautiful fish, and good people, this one hits all three. … Questions? Comments?

    Karin Miller - Catching Tarpon Without a Reel, Fighting Through Failure and Matchbox Magic (Ep. 50)

    Karin Miller is the founder of Zen Tenkara and a pioneer in pushing minimalist fishing to big, bold places. In this episode, she shares how a childhood fishing trip with her dad—and a surprise catch of a Matchbox cement truck—sparked a lifelong connection to the water. From the frustrations of early fly fishing to finding freedom through Tenkara, Karin walks us through her evolution as an angler, a business owner, and an adventurer. We talk about fish management, gear simplicity, why she gave chased tarpon without a reel, and what happened when a fly shop owner told her she'd never catch a bonefish with “that thing.” She didn’t just prove him wrong—she opened a whole new fishing bucket list! We also hit on themes of conservation, what it means to build an ethical fishing brand, and why surrounding yourself with the right people matters more than being good at something right away. An absolute thrill of a conversation! … Questions? Comments?

    Boyd Waters - Replacing Brotherhood, Deer Hair Sculptures and Mop Flies Need Love Too (Ep. 49)

    Boyd Waters is a deer hair fly tyer, guide and content creator known as Fly Fishing Studios.

We swap stories of fly tying disasters, the art of packing for a trip like it’s a mission, and how certain rivers become sacred ground once you truly know them.Boyd reminds us that fishing’s not just about the catch—sometimes it’s church, therapy, or simply an excuse to sit around playing cards with your closest friends. He opens up about fatherhood, the power of community, and the freedom that comes from learning to surrender—to the river, the moment, and even your emotions. … Questions? Comments?

    Thomas Watts - Canadian Trout Bum, Embracing Mental Health and Brook Trout for the Win (Ep. 48)

    This week Reid and Ed talk with Thomas Watts, the passionate fly fisherman behind Canadian Trout Bum, who joins us from his ultimate fly tying sanctuary in Ottawa, Canada. Thomas shares his journey from being inspired by "A River Runs Through It" to teaching himself fly fishing without YouTube tutorials, demonstrating the persistence that defines his approach to life. From his unwavering devotion to brook trout ("All hail the Brook Trout Church!") to the touching stories of fishing adventures with his teenage son in British Columbia, Thomas blends humor with profound insights about finding joy in imperfection. The conversation takes meaningful turns as Thomas candidly discusses mental health challenges and how fly fishing provides therapeutic escape. His creative side shines through stories of designing logos, creating popular fishing stickers, and writing poetry—all while balancing a career in high-tech security software. Practical fishing tips emerge too, especially about his favorite smallmouth bass river in Ottawa with crystal-clear water and perfect wading conditions for summer evenings. Throughout the episode, Thomas's infectious laugh and irreverent humor (including his amusing distrust of "Euro nymphing" and Brad Pitt's shadow casting) remind us that fishing is as much about laughter as it is about catching fish. … Questions?

    This week, master fly tier Doug Oatman joins us to share his six-decade journey that began with watching grasshoppers on his family's lake and evolved into creating museum-worthy Atlantic salmon flies.

Beyond the vise, Doug opens up about learning to balance his passion for fishing with family life, now finding his greatest joy in teaching his granddaughter to cast.
