Great Podcasts

Capt. Dana consistently delivers an engaging product. His interview skills make you feel if you are right there in the studio.
Not only is he a great podcast host, he is very patient and personable. I cold called him a few months ago about an area I was interested in fishing and he shared information with me that gave me the confidence to get out on that body of water and have a great couple of days! I hope that I am able to get out on the Neuse with him this year!
