Jordan Larsen, Togiak River Lodge owner and first-generation spey angler, takes us inside on what it's like to build a fishing program from the ground up. We're going to dig deep into one of the world's most remote corners up in Alaska. You're going to hear about this summer job as a videographer turned into a full-blown obsession, what it took to learn two-handed from scratch - this all started on the dock on the back of the lodge, and then how chasing kings and the swing might just reset what you know about fly fishing today.

Tim Huckaby, Microsoft executive and guru on AI, is going to walk us through the Sierra Nevadas, what he does there for guiding, he's going to take us into San Diego, all the diversity of species down there, and all the interests that create this amazing life he has going. You'll find out what big species you can find in the bays of California and why the Hoi kayak is a must-have if you're heading down there. You're also going to get a few tips on fishing the Golden Trout wilderness, and what you can do if you're planning a trip down in that area. He knows it very well. Plus, we're going to find out what good AI and what bad AI looks like in the outdoors, coming from the man who's creating it. A very interesting conversation.

In episode #4 of CJ’s Reel Southern Podcast, Chad Johnson kicks things off with a July fishing report from the White and Norfolk Rivers, highlighting the sulfur hatch and prime hopper season. The transition from sulfur in the evening to hoppers during the day opens up a ton of topwater opportunities, while nymphing with girdle bugs and pheasant tails remains productive. Chad shares fly suggestions like the Fat Albert, Psycho Ant, PMX, and two-bit hookers—solid patterns for the Ozark summer bite. The brief segment wraps with Diamond State Fly Shop’s usual shoutout, plugging tying nights and their new podcast, Guide Talk.
