Southern Texas Fly Fishing Conclusion
We covered Willie Nelson to Stevie Ray Vauhn, over to Texas and Patagonia then back again. Riverhorse is all about love and laughter. I will listen to this one again and again because of the passion.
I really enjoyed the podcast with Riverhorse. I went to the Fly Fish Journal right after the podcast and subscribed for a year… I don’t know how to live with that much soul.
Thanks Earl. So cool to hear you are going to check out the journal and supporting it. Yeah, Riverhorse is pretty unique. It was a lot of fun for me as well.
