Show Notes: https://www.wetflyswing.com/ritz We dig into fly fishing for shad, alligator hunting and the Ritz-Carlton with Mark Benson.  Mark walks us through the steps to catching shad along with some other shenanigans including the alligator hunt.  Shad fishing has a lot of similarities to steelhead fishing so let's dig into it. This episode is another level with our chat on the Ritz-Carlton 18 hole Greg Norman golf course and bass course.  You can do it all in one trip including the alligators that are out and about.
