The Wadeoutthere Fly Fishing Podcast

In this episode we Wadeoutthere with Alex Emery from Livingston, Montana. Alex started fly fishing as a child with his father in New Jersey and continued during school at West Virginia University, becoming involved with the fly fishing club as well.
After college, Alex’s search to continue his passion for fly fishing, and build a life and career connected to the outdoors brought him to Sweetwater Travel Company Guide School, in Livingston, Montana, where he has been guiding on the Yellowstone River and surrounding area for over six years.
We discuss the Yellowstone River, the joys of introducing newcomers to fly fishing, and a little bit about the value of a good knot.

In this episode we Wadeoutthere with Adam Greuel from Stevens Point, Wisconsin. Adam grew up road tripping to Wyoming for family vacations, where he was introduced to rivers and fishing, which eventually led to picking up a fly rod. He also picked up a guitar and a pen, following his passion for music and songwriting in the band, Horseshoes and Handgrenades.
Adam also guides his home state for trout when he’s not on the road making music.
We discuss the various regions and angling opportunities in Wisconsin, the beauty of exploration and discovery, and how that process fuels his fly fishing and song writing.
