577 | Redefining Fly Fishing: Private Waters and the Quest for Sustainability with RJ Hosking – RareWaters
Dave - The tranquil flow of a river and the gentle tug on a fly line have been my solace for as long as I can remember, but my latest conversation with RJ from RareWaters offered an invigorating new perspective on familiar waters. He takes us through a captivating odyssey in the world of private fly fishing, revealing how the sport's exclusivity is more myth than reality. RJ's personal journey from Northern California to an illustrious career with Patagonia has seen him at the forefront of marrying environmental stewardship with industry innovation. He now brings this same ethic to RareWaters, with a mission to transform the fishing experience while honoring the values he's always held dear.
As he grasped his grandfather's old fly rod, he couldn't help but feel the weight of legacy in his hands. That's the moment our guest, Zach Pope, credits for sparking a lifelong love affair with fly fishing—a passion that would eventually lead to the creation of the TroutRoutes app. Our conversation casts a line into the evolution of this innovative mapping tool and its role in guiding anglers to the perfect catch. We discuss how the app aids in finding both fish and legal fishing spots, and how it was shaped by early expeditions, personal stories, and a desire to meld tradition with technology.
