Steelhead Podcast Launch (Live This Week)

January 13, 2018

Updated post: I posted this first in Jan of 2018 and now we are moving into 2020. I want to leave this post live so you appreciate with me what we have created now that we are over 100 episodes!

Thank you for your support!

Original Jan 2018 Post:

I just couldn’t wait!

In the process of getting the show ready to go this week, I ended up publishing a few episodes on itunes ahead of time.

We will still have the big launch for everyone on Jan 15th, but the show is live now.

The first few episodes I published were already on youtube already, but come Jan 23rd they will all be brand new – starting with Trey Combs.

I just recently interviewed Trey Combs who shared a ton of information on what he’s been up to lately and also his history and contribution to steelhead fly fishing.

Here’s a short taste of the show notes from the interview I just completed with Trey Combs. These are a few of the highlights and points Trey covers but can’t take the place of listening to Trey directly.

Highlights from episode 006 with Trey:

Ted Trublood was the person who showed Trey his first steelhead.
Jim Green worked at Fenwick in the early days and provided Trey his first rod.
Dave notes an article on 13 steelhead lost
Thompson River Steelhead decline
The Steelhead Trout – The first book published by Frank Amato
Forest and Stream – The magazine Trey used to get a lot of his information for his first books.
Blue Water Fly Fishing book
32:00 – The Atlantic Salmon by Lee Wulff – This book transitioned steelhead fishing into another level.
Harry Lemire was a big influence for Trey
Greased Line Fishing
The Night Dancer – One of Trey’s favorite flies for summer steelhead.
Steel Flash Flies – Trey’s new pattern with red eyes that has high visibility.
Trey provides a great tip to focus on one run and learn that run very well as opposed to floating many miles and fishing each run just a little.
