  • EP 196 Musky on the Fly, Manitoulin Island and Stillwater Guiding
    Aug 1 2025

    We head NORTH, and fish an increeeeeeeeeedibly beautiful place in Ontario. Seriously, one for the books - it's one of our fav spots in the province. We had the pleasure of being guided by Brian Still of Stillwater Guiding for the second year in a row. In this episode we chat about throwing big flies on big rods chasing musky, pike, and bass. We have some pretty epic fishing stories in this one - don't miss it!

    Huge thanks to Barbara, Ryan, and the whole family up at the camp for having us - it was such a treat to be welcomed in and spend time together.

    We get into the full experience in this one - gear, tactics, the fish, and why Brian is such a great guide. If you’re thinking about making your own trip up there, do it. Seriously.

  • EP 195 Blue Fox Camp in Northern Ontario
    Jul 15 2025

    We head up to Northern Ontario for a fly-in trout fishing weekend at the one and only, Blue Fox Camp!

    Blue Fox is located north of Elliot Lake, Ontario. It's either a quick float plane ride in, or a couple hour commute by trails and ATVs. We flew in, fished for a few days on the numerous trout lakes, and had a blast. Tune in to hear how we did!

    Thanks Pete, and all the wicked staff up at Blue Fox. You guys rock!

  • EP 192 Colby Acuff, Musician and Angler
    Jun 1 2025

    We sit down with Colby Acuff—country music artist, fourth-generation Idahoan, and former fly-fishing guide. We talk about his journey from guiding on rivers by day to playing music in smoky bars at night, and how the wilds of Idaho helped shape the raw, no-nonsense sound he’s now known for.

    We get into the making of his breakout record If I Were the Devil, what it’s been like playing with legends, and how it felt stepping onto the Grand Ole Opry stage for the first time. Colby also opens up about staying grounded, staying independent, and how fishing still plays a role in his life—even with all the buzz in Nashville.

    If you're into authentic country music with a bit of dirt under the fingernails, and stories that roll like a western river, this one’s for you.

    Find everything Colby, here.
