    The Roll Cast Podcast received numerous listener emails requesting an update on the massive recovery efforts underway. Early last July, the Texas Hill Country received massive rains, which caused rivers in the region to flood. Particularly hard hit with enormous damage and a significant loss of life is the upper Guadalupe River between Kerrville and Hunt, Texas. Pod hosts discuss Hill Country River conditions, changes in the river's topology, and the current state of the fish population.

    AUGUST 2, 2025: Be sure to attend the Hill Country Relief Rally at Middleton Brewing Co., San Marcos, TX 78666. Enjoy Fly Tying Demos, Casting Demos, a Raffle and Auction for guided fishing, and lots of cold beer.

    Hosts Anderson and Gikas record open-air at Market Platz in Fredericksburg, Texas, to update each other on what is happening in their fly-fishing world. This episode's guest interview is with fly fishing renaissance man Gabe Avalos, who describes his soul-expanding journey through fly fishing and the REEL RECOVERY organization he has led. We learn how fly fishing gives os much more than it takes.
