    Episode 7 | Tim Rajeff - Casting and Rod Design

    Episode 7 | Tim Rajeff - Casting and Rod Design Sometimes you get lucky... Episode 7 is with none other than Tim Rajeff.  This is one of those that could and probably should be a series but alas, we didn't have the time to ask ALL the questions we wanted to so instead you a get one long podcast.  Save this for a long drive! We talk about everything from how long we have known each other to how many bones we have broken, industry icons and what really goes on in the head of Tim when it comes to developing a fly rod. Always on this mind was making an affordable, user friendly rod that would suit any application and work with any and all casting strokes...as long as it has the correct line on it! Just give a listen, easier than trying to explain...thank you! Dave

    Episode 4 | Matt Shilling - Indifly Foundation

    Episode 4 is a very special one for many reasons. This will be a two-part episode, and we are pleased to release them during Native American Heritage Month. We traveled to the Wind River Reservation - home to the Eastern Shoshone and the Northern Arapaho tribes.  We thought being on site to talk with Matt Shilling from the Indifly Foundation about the work they do with Indigenous Peoples.  Indifly's mission is helping to create economic opportunities in their communities through fly fishing while protecting the resources and the environments that sustain them. Indifly is currently working with the Shoshone and Arapaho to set up a lodge on the reservation. In part two we talk with Art Lawson, Director of Wind River Fish and Game about life on the reservation, and how a fly fishing lodge will improve life for the Shoshone and Arapaho who live there.

    Episode 3 | Dylan Tomine - Return to the Skykomish

    18 years ago Dylan Tomine made the difficult decision to stop fishing on the Skykomish River. It was heartbreaking to walk away from the river he cut his teeth fishing on, a river he loved, his home water. In the 18 years that have gone by since Dylan last fished the Skykomish, wild Steelhead populations have all collapsed.  In this episode, Dave convinced Dylan to take a trip down memory lane, to float the Sky, do a bit of fishing, talk about what has changed, and the future of wild steelhead. This one is emotional, thought-provoking, and at times pretty funny.  Join us for a day on the Skykomish with Dylan and Dave as Dylan returns at long last to his home waters.
