In typical fashion, Mike finds a way to get some quick and easy rewards, and shares them in the hopes that everyone can get some wins with the fly rod and catch the bug like he has (ok, poor choice of words).

Episode 15 - D-I-Why Not?
Luke cozies up in an SUV with Greg Amato, our resident DIY King to discuss his obsession with learning new skills and crafts. Greg is a chef, baker, fabricator, woodworker, angler, hunter, artist...you name it. If Greg runs across something he needs, his next step is to figure out how to make it himself. Luke and Greg dig into the culture of thinking "well I can't do that" and challenge the idea that anyone has limits in what they can get their hands into.
