Great fly fishing podcasts

Maine fishing guide Aaron Broaddus has started a very interesting series of podcasts about fly fishing. In his first podcast, Aaron tells us about his fishing history, from Rangeley to Montana, two of my very favorite places where I spent a lot of time fishing.

His stories about guiding are good too, including the difficulty of making a full-time income from guiding. I also appreciated the important issues and opportunities he talks about.

In his podcasts, he’ll be interviewing interesting Maine anglers and guides and sharing their stories.
