Miscellaneous
For nearly two decades, Blair Wiggins has brought fishing to audiences across the United States with his hit show "Addictive Fishing". But even though Season 19 is upon us, Blair ISN'T fishing. Why, you ask? Well, we'll let him tell you all about it. During our conversation with Blair, he shared quite a bit of interesting stuff with us; how Addictive Fishing got it's start, what it was originally intended to do, and how it all changed in its first season. He also talked about where it's going - pretty exciting stuff for Blair...and for us as fans, too. We also got to talk with him about his brand new, award-winning M2 Signature rods from Lew's. He goes in-depth about his needs, wants, and specifications and how Lew's worked it all out in the design, including the fantastic innovation Blair's been dying to get on a signature rod for a long time. Aside from Blair, the three of us "kicked around" the merits of Huk's latest product, the "Attack" Water Shoe. Could it be the footwear Kevin and Scott have been searching for? Here's their new Attack Saltwater commercial that got the talk going: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=feSxTdBA3F8 Kevin brought up our last episode, which featured renaissance man Alberto Rey. It was a great conversation, and if you missed it last week, you should check it out now. It was great stuff (as Kevin likes to say), but one of the best aspects of our talk was the information Alberto shared about "Children in the Stream", his non-profit organization specializing in the introduction of fly fishing to disadvantaged children. We discussed the connection between children and fishing again this week, and it was a good talk. We also shared two more IGFA Certified World Records: Brooke Laws (New Zealand) - Smallfry - Squirefish - 20lb 2oz Gary Carter (Angola) - 6lb test - Atlantic Sailfish - 103lb 7oz Finally, we talked about our favorite website, AnglerHQ.com and a fantastic barracuda video.
