  • The best fly fishing podcast

    From someone who's been been listening to fly fishing podcasts for 20 years, this is the best fly fishing podcast on the planet, period.

I like that his show is more steak than sizzle; no gimmicks, no clowning around, just sit-down, in-depth conversations with guides, outfitters, authors or conservation leaders in their areas of expertise. I've lea... more

    I’m new to fly fishing podcasts. I have enjoyed several episodes, most recently an outstanding one with Dave Allison. Stewart has a nice balance of asking questions that clarify what is being discussed for experienced anglers as well as newbie’s.

Q: How do portable systems handle different watercraft and power needs across brands like Garmin, Humminbird, and LaRance?
By using adaptable, modular power boxes and mounts that support 12V lithium or sealed lead-acid options, plus adjustable brackets and quick-release plates to fit various screens and transducers, thereby enabling cross-boat compatibility.
Fish Finder Mounts with Wade Van Pelt and Phil Rowley (Littoral Zone #26)
Q: What was the key design challenge for the early transducer mounting systems and how was it solved?
The biggest hurdle was making transducer mounting universal across many brands and models while protecting the device from damage; this led to the magnetic transducer mount design, which allows easy attachment, detachment, and protection with a simple, adjustable magnetic system.
