Fishing The Hard Way, with Tudor Caradoc-Davies and Andre van Wyk The Hard Way

This week we had to move online for our recording, but were had an amazing conversation with Tudor Caradoc-Davies, journalist, author, and editor of The Mission, South Africa's premiere fly-fishing magazine (and free in both print and digital editions). Also on the call was Andre van Wyk, proud beard owner, fly-fishing maniac, and owner of Lucky Bastards, a company that takes clients on incredible fishing experiences.

We talk the joys of fly-fishing, running a fishing magazine in the middle of print's purported death throes, a couple of near-death experiences, sustainability in fishing, and how fly-fishing might be the right sport for you. (Check out our instagram for some great pictures)

Also we played podcast bingo and got pretty sozzled.
