The Struggle Is Reel

This podcast is what happens at the end of a good day on the water, talking with your friends about everything and nothing at the same time

Listening to their episodes on swinging flies for PNW steelhead is remarkably similar to the scene in Office Space where Tom Smykowski has to explain his job to the Bobs. Just as Tom insists he physically takes the specs from the customers to the engineers, this show operates on a hilarious level of "What would you say you do here?" • Sometimes, you’re getting the "specs"—deep dives into sink tips, specific winter runs, and the geometry of a proper Spey cast. • Other times, the hosts are just "walking the forms down to shipping." They veer off into glorious, unscripted tangents that have absolutely nothing to do with fish, yet somehow feel essential to the culture of standing in a cold river for eight hours.
