  • The River Closed Season

    Love the podcast and it’s a mainstay of my listening. I don’t fish rivers as much nowadays and don’t have a strong opinion either way on the closed season, but would have loved the episode on the closed season to have been a debate including a representative from the environment agency to hear both sides of this topic. Would have been a super interesting debate to listen to!
