  • The Legendary Moana and the Great Mystery

    The Legendary Moana and the Great Mystery
    Apr 28 2025
    If you fly fished on Christmas Island in the 80s, 90s, or early 2000s, there's a good chance you've heard the name "Moana". Moana is considered the patriarch of Christmas Island guides. Though he passed away in 2016, Moana has never been forgotten by those fortunate enough to have fished with him. We return to Christmas Island (CXI) to try to uncover Moana's memory and attempt to solve a 15-year-old mystery that we left behind.

    Reties from the Archives: Brian O'Keefe
    Jan 14 2025
    Over the last 5 seasons, some amazing yarns have been spun in The February Room! We've decided to "Retie" a few of our favorites from the archives. During the Great Pandemic, Lauren enjoyed cutting it up with iconic fishing photographer Brian O'Keefe. Before O'Keefe became a household name throughout the world of adventure angling, he was a fishing guide on Oregon's Deschutes River. Brian's recount of his Guide Day from Hell was too good only to be heard once. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Dave Goodhart and the Nine Lives of a Fishing Guide

    Dave Goodhart and the Nine Lives of a Fishing Guide
    Dec 24 2024
    Columbus, Hillary, Magellan...Goodhart. Though the latter may not appear in textbooks, when it comes to exploratory fly fishing, he is every bit the risk-taker as the other names on the list. Hammer (and rod) in hand, Dave Goodhart helped construct the first outposts on the legendary Ponoi in Russia, the taimen rivers in Mongolia, and the steelhead and trout streams of Kamchatka. Throughout his long guiding career, including 20+ years in Alaska, he cheated death on numerous occasions and thankfully for us, lived to tell the tales! Learn more about your ad choices.

    Oct 30 2024
    The hour was late in a one-star motel room in Idaho. Huddled around a wobbly table, the three of us stared into our half-empty beers. Our buddy Mike G., who had spent many years guiding and boating the wild rivers of the American Southwest, was prompted to share...“have you guys ever heard the legend of La Llorona”? This is one of the most terrifying ghost stories we have ever heard on our fly fishing podcast. Listeners beware. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Sep 25 2024
    Brian Oakland had been battling a brutish permit for over an hour. Each time he managed to get the leader within an arm's reach of the guide, the fish turned away, peeling the gained line back out of the reel. At a sweltering stalemate in Ascension Bay, the deckhand seized the opportunity to catch some Z's. As the founder of Got Fishing, Oakland has led adventures across the globe and shares his insight into the competitive world of hosted travel. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Jul 19 2024
    Lauren and Ashley arrived in the Florida Keys with little expectations and a boat-load of pent up angst. This was to be their first ever attempt at tarpon-on-the-fly. They had been warned of the challenges of pursuing the Silver King and few of their friends gave them much of a chance of actually landing on a tarpon on their initial foray. However, they had an ace-in-the-hole; A dedicated guide with the knowledge and patience to introduce beginners into the world of tarpon fly fishing. His name is Zach Stells.

    We're back! Has it only been a year since our mysterious absence? The rumors have abounded that we were kidnapped by bottom trawlers or became a pickleball power couple, but truth is, we've just been busy with life...and a little fishing. While Lauren was working and holding down the fort, Justin used the respite to search for an Oregon dinosaur. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
