Tackle and Tacos - A Fishing Podcast

We actually think it's kinda cool to periodically check in on our hosts and talk over their lives, ask em questions, interview them essentially. So this week, with no real plan Nate interviews Jordan. Sorta. One off soft plastics, Bible stories, the trials of buying / selling a house and how to recover from a crap tournament. That and much more. Again, sorta. PLEASE GIVE US A 5 STAR POSITIVE REVIEW ON WHATEVER PLATFORM YOU'RE ON! TELL A FRIEND. SHARE THE WORD! Seriously though, it really helps us!

Look here man, we are doing our best to balance life and all the craziness that comes along with it, with doing this podcast. Is it always easy? No. But it's always super fun. So today I decided to sneak attack interview Nate. He does pretty well. We chat about the ups and downs of derby fishing, predict the winners on the next Elite stop on Lake Fork. Crack jokes about all kinda stupid stuff and who knows what else. PLEASE GIVE US A 5 STAR POSITIVE REVIEW ON WHATEVER PLATFORM YOU'RE ON! TELL A FRIEND. SHARE THE WORD!

We have wanted the ol Llama on the show since the very beginning of this podcast 2 years ago! He does not disappoint. Even in the little pre show meeting / conversation, he was just so chill and kind. This fella is everyone's favorite for a reason. They just don't make too many like him! We play "one of your favorites", get a celebrity question for Seth, and talk about everything from fishing to family, kids, tacos, hunting, boats, sponsors, and hair. Quite a bit of hair talk. We hope you like listening to Seth as much as we liked talking to him! You can find Seth easily online by just googling him or look specifically on socials and YouTube for Seth Feider Fishing.

Is it possible that former elite series Pro Josh Douglas is the best bass fishing guide on the planet? Considering that he all but guarantees 20lb bags of smallies for his clients, I would say heck yes. His YouTube should be about 718 times bigger than it is. His content may be the most honest YouTube content out there. Truly. His "whats on deck" series is so good and so thorough and entertaining. It's, as a miner during the old days would say, GOLLLLD! Life, guiding, fishing, tacos, competition, the classic, and a ton more schtuff is discussed here. Make sure you follow him online!

Another episode we've been trying to line up and record for a long time. Bob does NOT disappoint. He's smart, sincere, humble and super relatable. Not much about Bob to dislike!

We thought we lost this footage and audio which is why we didn't launch it BEFORE the 2025 Bassmaster Classic. Then, what do you know, we found it on a different hard drive! So here is Jordan, way way before the classic giving his predictions for the tournament. He guesses winner, weight, winning lure and even the 2nd place finisher. Turns out, he was pretty close. Almost like he recorded this after the event, which of course he did NOT. POSITIVITY IS WORTH THE EFFORT!

A lot of people aren't always sure how to approach ice out fishing, (the very short period where the ice has just come off a body of water) or if your lakes don't freeze, even just super cold water. Where to start, what lures to use, what lures to avoid. Depth, species, presentation styles and speeds, on this episode with Stud Angler and YouTuber Caleb Wistad - better known as Hooked Up WI - we deep dive into a very specific fishing style and time of year known as ICE OUT. You do not want miss this episode or this time of year for fishing! It can very often produce biggest fish you'll catch all year!

This is one of the most fun interviews we've done! There are probably 6 times where we can't even talk because we were all laughing so hard! The 2024 Bassmaster Classic champ, Justin Hamner, yes he's a stud angler, but he's way more than that! We talk life, his come-up in fishing, tacos, family stuff, sponsors, jerkbait specific tips and somehow we talked about using adult toys in fishing lures.

We've been in contact with our new pal Hunter for awhile now through our other pal, Luke. So so glad that we were finally able to link up and talk! I've known about this dude since his MLF win a few years back. The crazy thing is that when I found out about his win, I had no idea about his "disability" for lack of a better term. I just knew he was a stick bass fisherman. Imagine my surprise when I saw a photo of the man and noticed that he has no legs, and essentially one hand. I read a quote by Benjamin Franklin once - "I never knew a man who was good at making excuses that was good at anything else" - I don't know if Hunter is a tattoo feller, but if he his, he needs this on him, it sums him up wonderfully. This dude is funny, well spoken, clever, honest as all get out and just a beast on the water.

The Art of the Jerkbait: Decades of Tuning a Classic In this episode, I dive deep into the world of jerkbaits, sharing insights from my decades of experience using them to catch everything from trophy bass to aggressive pike. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just starting to explore this versatile bait, I break down the nuances of technique, tackle selection, and the subtle art of understanding how fish react to a well-timed jerk. Join me as I reminisce about the evolution of jerkbaits over the years with help from Historian Ken Duke, from early days with classic models to the modern innovations that continue to change the game. I'll share personal stories of what works—and what doesn't—while also giving tips on how to fine-tune your jerkbait game for every season and water condition. Tune in for a masterclass on why this bait is more than just a tool—it's a weapon in the hands of a skilled angler. Not that I am one of those. If you've ever wondered how to make the most out of your jerkbait arsenal, this episode's for you. Get ready to learn, laugh, and maybe even pick up a few new tricks!

To be clear, we talk about a LOT more than just sponsors and what they actually are and what they actually mean in this episode. But, Miles nailed that section so dang well, that's what we decided to call the whole episode! Miles is a man.

Tacos, chatterbaits, money, sponsorships, fishing stories, and of course an update on his beautiful little girl (tears were shed) are just some of the topics tackled on this one! ENJOY!

We've been trying to get this dude on the podcast for over a year, and he does NOT disappoint.

With well over 100 tournaments wins on some of the biggest tours and a recent 2nd place finish in a BFL regional, Adam is undoubtedly a hammer. He's a stick. The man is a sniper and whatever else you would call an angler who scares the other dudes at the ramp. However, he's much more than that. He's a down to earth family man, a duck killer, a fajita maker, and just a caring / nice dude who once gave Jordan's son near a dozen brand new Spro Frogs after a derby. (full story in podcast) This is a podcast that people have been requesting, and we hope you love it.

This is a man who was on our very short list of "dream guests" when we very first started this podcast a year ago. Brian Latimer is one of the most recognizable faces in fishing and there are a million reasons why: His fishing skill of course, tournament wins, his huge YouTube presence (over 210 thousand followers), giant following on social, fishing school, or maybe just his honest / believable vibes. Whatever the reason, it's well deserved. This is a humble, real, intelligent, fishing daggum schtud! We talk everything from fishing to hardships in life, to boats, specific rod set ups for frogs or chatterbaits, and even a short detour into racist sounding bait names (it's a joke, don't get too offended) - Ride with us, this is a good one!

We legit have the best family of people who listen to our podcast and engage in our nonsense on social media. The. Best. Recently we asked folks what we should talk about on our podcast. Today's taco Tuesday special is a blend of two of those answers. Forward facing sonar. And fishing from the bank. We love FFS (as far as our personal use of it) and we love fishing off the bank. So here's Jordan's thoughts on how to do better with both of those things. Not like, together, not using live scope from shore. Although, I suppose you could do just that. But instead, two separate shows sorta mashed into one based on requests from folks. We're not pretending this is the end all lecture on either, but it is straight from experience and old Jordy's heart! ENJOY!

Cheating in fishing, not even just tournament fishing, has been an issue forever. I mean, press pause, think about what you did as a kid when someone asked how big your bluegill was. You stretched your arms as far and as wide as you could. As did I. In some sorta odd way, fishing and lying and cheating have always sort of gone together. But what happens when a man doesn't outgrow the "telling a fish tale" phase in life? What drives people to cheat in tournaments or cheat a record or lie on social media? Is it the attention? Is it is the "See this? I am better than you at this, and I can prove it?" or are some people just really that stupid and that selfish and that gross? On this Taco Tuesday exploration we look back at different cheats through fishing. We talk about what can be done about it, and we hopefully provide some sound advice for anyone who has ever or will ever consider cheating. https://www.tackleandtacos.com POSITIVITY IS WORTH THE EFFORT!

"Spro frog only tournament on pool 9. You in?" Nate sent this text to Jordan a few weeks back right after Jordan quit a job that he wasn't in love with. After a resounding "YES" was sent back, the game was on. Now on the other side of it, Jordan said there won't be another one that happens that he won't be fishing. This is a before and after episode. We record right before the tournament and right after. In the before section, we give our predictions and insights, and in the after, we usually see how wrong we were. We are are so pumped to have our homie Collin Tweten back on the show for a sec and celebrate his 2nd place, $1700 dollar finish. ONLY 2 DAYS LEFT!!!

Man! We see it all over now! Young humans just killing the game. On the BASS Elites, the rookies are like professional snipers. I remember seeing these two children who were incredible at skateboarding back in the day. One was named Ryan Sheckler, the other went by Nyjah. And here we are in the big toothy fish game. Fischer (pretty perfect name eh?) has boated something like 40 million musky at the ripe old age of 15. Lucky for us, he's kinda local here and we got him on the podcast. This episode has been one we've been wanting to line up for a LONG time, so we're so glad to have the Smiths, father and son, on the show. We talk fishing of course, how to fuel your kids passion without pushing too hard, tacos, and what makes fishing so dang fun! Come on with us, it's a fun one!

Alone is one of the coolest / most engaging shows on TV. 10 people are dropped off in the middle of absolute nowhere with no food or water and told to last as long as they can. They are equipped with a sat-phone to "tap out" when they get to the place where they can't take anymore. The longest lasting human wins 500 thousand dollars! Oh, and they have to film themselves the whole time. No crew. No human contact. Season 10 (on Netflix now) was amazing. Fishing, our passion, was a huge piece of the winner's strategy. Alan Tenta lasted 66 days out there, outlasted everyone, lost 70 + pounds, won half a million dollars, truly felt what suffering is in sub freezing temps in a teepee made of sticks and a tarp, and now he faces his toughest challenge yet; be on the Tackle and Tacos podcast.

Anything worth doing is worth doing well. This may not be our new buddy Mo's life statement, but it kinda is by the way he lives and operates. To be totally honest, we didn't know Mo Reyes super well, but we knew about him via circles that we both travel in. We were so inspired by this interview, dude's passion is contagious. The man is honest and transparent and the way he operates is, pardon the language, balls out 25/8. When Mo does something he goes all in all the time. And I honestly think the entire world would be a better place if we lived the same way!  Come with us as we talk hunting, fishing, guns, learning, and of course - tacos!

Look here man, me and many other men are great at learning after messing stuff up. Jobs, cars, hunting, fishing, parenting, and yes relationships. This podcast is the result of messing up taking Lola fishing more times than I care to count. I take her out, act like a turd, don't plan well enough, get spun out after my 3rd rats nest, and just ruin the whole trip, and essentially, ruin fishing for Lola. Don't be that guy, don't be me.

I watch Life Below Zero basically everyday on Disney Plus. Alaska has always intrigued me and this is the best of the Alaska shows. The hunting, the fishing, the adventure, the total and complete disconnect from what we know and live here in the lower states, there's something so appealing and curious about it. Well, one day while watching, Lola reached out to Ricko and to our happy surprise, he responded and agreed to be on our show! We talk about fishing for food, hunting, appreciation for the outdoors and animals and a lot about Ricko's story, which by the way is truly amazing. Everything from growing up in a cabin the true wilderness, to family life, NAtive Athabascan culture, to drug addiction / prison and an amazing clothing line started at a Potlatch. Ride with us on this one, it's gonna be fun!

If you've ever gone after the big toothy fish known as Musky or sometimes spelled Muskie, you probably know the feeling of like "Am I doing this right?" or "Good lord, these really are the fish of 10,000 casts!" For episode 59 we brought in a legit pro and good buddy of the show; Angling Anarchy, AKA Brian Skaife. This dude knows these fish, catches a ton of these fish, and makes some DOPE videos of it. Brian gets SUPER practical and gives us some simple tips and 3 specific lures to start with when targeting these potentially massive creatures. If you've never caught one, this podcast can legit change that. If you've been a 'ski angler for years, perhaps this simplified approach can help you dial it in. ENJOY!

Jordan first started ordering from Carolina Fishing Tackle in maybe 2015 or so. The Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) for fishing is insane and ever evolving. In Japan, the bass waters are so pressured that anglers and lure makers are constantly being forced to come up with new techniques as the fish become sort of programmed and desensitized to the same old same old. This forces amazing / creative innovations. Japanese anglers are responsible for rigs like hover strolling, drop shotting, the tokyo rig, and on and on. CFT has been at the forefront of bringing that innovation from Japan here to the US. They have deals in place to have JDM lure companies newest gear before it lands anywhere else. So when the chance came to have the owners on our show, WE JUMPED AT IT! We hope you love seeing and hearing this episode as much as we loved making it!

We always said we wanted our show to be "listenable" by experts and brand new anglers alike. I recently got a text from a friend who asked about what rod or rods he should invest as he's looking to get more into fishing. It got me thinking. This episode is really two parts - rods, and lures. What do you NEED to get started? A couple rods and 10 must have lures. We really hope this helps with people who maybe have similar questions. The truth is that the world of fishing can be pretty overwhelming. So many rods, so many types of lures, where should you start?

You ever just sat around a campfire and talked, listened, laughed, maybe even learned a little? That's what this episode is. Picture yourself up at some remote fishing camp: you've caught a ton of fish, fileted em up, ate a huge dinner, and now, before bed, you're sitting around a campfire jaw jackin' with a group of friends. We talk through all kinds of stuff in this our first campfire convo episode. We even bring in 3 guests to join the fun, cuz is 6 people at a fire is s'more fun than 3. See what I did there?
