Chris Megan sits down with his longtime friend and former OTW General Manager to discuss how On The Water grew through the late 1990s and early 2000s, while reminiscing on their most memorable fishing trips.

Saltwater options are dwindling around the On The Water Office, so Matt Haeffner and Jimmy Fee discuss the lengths they'll go to keep the saltwater season alive close to home. After that, Matt and Jimmy rank their striper seasons, muse about off-season plug purchases, and wonder how much is too much to spend on Sabiki rigs.

Jimmy recounts the Season 22 New Jersey Surf episode with the guys behind the camera, Alex Blackwell and Liam O'Neill. They talk about everything that happened, and a warning about how chasing reports from "Good Samaritans" can leave you with an eyeful. Be sure to tune in this winter for an all-new season of On The Water's Angling Adventures.
