Even though I talk about fly fishing into a microphone for about half an hour every week already, it is always a great experience to hop on to someone else’s podcast. A few weeks back, I recorded with Spencer Durrant of the Untangled Podcast from Ventures Fly Co. We talked Casting Across and fly fishing …
The Casting Across Fly Fishing Podcast has been “on the air” for over 5 years. From day one, the podcast has been about providing something different in a remarkably crowded space. There are plenty of great shows with interview and roundtable formats, most of which run for close to an hour. My goal is to …
What better for a final podcast episode of the year than a curated retrospective on 2023? While I touch on other subject matter, this is what I get rolling with on this final episode of December. You might be surprised what the most shared episode of Casting Across happened to be. But you won’t be …
Who is this guy you listen to every week? Valid question. In fact, I think that it is incredibly helpful to know at least a little something about the life, experiences, and worldview of the author you’re reading. Or podcaster you’re hearing.

Since I started Casting Across in 2015, my desire has been to share the things I enjoy about the quarry and culture of fly fishing. I set a standard for myself: three posts a week. So, for six years I’ve been publishing content every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Every once in a while an article …
Scroll down if you just want the good stuff; the links with the great podcast content from some of the best in the business. …but I did want to say something about why I’ve chosen the five podcasts that I’ve listed below. I’ve found myself reading less and less contemporary fly fishing writing. Part of …
Through conversations in the real world and online, I’ve come to the conclusion that podcasts appeal to a wider range of age demographics than any other medium. While not a hard and fast rule, written articles and videos seem to have audiences that fall on one end of the spectrum. It might be the fact …
