58# All about the striped bass with Captain Joe Diorio

What a fantastic podcast with Joe Diorio!! His enthusiasm and passion for fishing was apparent.
I loved his humorous fishing stories. Joe sounds like a guy that I could easily share a few laughs along with a few brews!😄 Hope that you invite him back as a return guest.

I put Tide Chasers on the top of my list to catch-up on what’s happening for fresh and saltwater fishing, gain in-depth knowledge and helpful tips that your hosts and guests provide. Keep them coming!
