We sit down with Colby Acuff—country music artist, fourth-generation Idahoan, and former fly-fishing guide. We talk about his journey from guiding on rivers by day to playing music in smoky bars at night, and how the wilds of Idaho helped shape the raw, no-nonsense sound he's now known for. We get into the making of his breakout record If I Were the Devil, what it's been like playing with legends, and how it felt stepping onto the Grand Ole Opry stage for the first time. Colby also opens up about staying grounded, staying independent, and how fishing still plays a role in his life—even with all the buzz in Nashville. If you're into authentic country music with a bit of dirt under the fingernails, and stories that roll like a western river, this one's for you. Find everything Colby, here.

This is a fun one! In this special episode of Waypoints, Jim Klug is joined by longtime friends and industry legends Brian O'Keefe and Bryan Gregson for a lively and insightful conversation that dives deep into the roots and the history of flyfishing. What started as a late-night, beer-fueled conversation at a recent consumer show gathering in Denver quickly turned into a bigger realization: many of today's younger anglers — even those who live and breathe the sport — have little to no knowledge of the icons and pioneers who laid the foundation for modern flyfishing. So, we decided to do something about it.This episode was created as a tribute and a history lesson — a fun, freewheeling discussion that shines a light on 30 legendary figures who helped shape the sport as we know it. From influential authors and pioneering guides to gear innovators, conservationists, and destination fishing trailblazers, this episode covers a wide spectrum of personalities who left an undeniable mark on flyfishing during the 20th century. Whether you're a seasoned angler or newer to the game, this one is both entertaining and educational — a must-listen for anyone who cares about the history, evolution, and culture of our sport.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild. They evaluate hundreds of materials, build dozens of prototypes and spend seasons punishing them in the world's most extreme conditions. The work is the guide, and Patagonia never tires of exploring, learning and improving. Built with innovative materials, intuitive features and a refined fit, their Swiftcurrent® Waders are a better wader experience. Repatterned for bulk reduction, reduced seam stress, increased maneuverability and improved repairability, they move better in and out of the water, carry gear more efficiently and keep tools handy.

The newest episode of Finding Demo Surf Fishing has dropped and we are talking about taxes. Audio: https://share.transistor.fm/s/b201486aEpisode Title: Taxes on Taxes on TaxesSummary:In this eye-opening episode, we dig into the fishing excise tax—the hidden fee built into nearly every piece of fishing gear you buy.While it's meant to fund conservation, access, and habitat restoration, we ask the tough questions:Where does that money actually go?Who decides how it's spent?Are surf anglers getting shortchanged compared to boaters and other user groups?We explore the history of the tax, how it's structured, and why most anglers don't even realize they're paying it. You'll hear real examples of mismanagement, underfunded coastal access, and political gridlock—but also the success stories, like the Chesapeake Bay restoration effort, that prove this system can work when done right.Whether you're knee-deep in the surf or casting from a pier, if you fish—you fund this. It's time to understand how it works and what needs to change.What You'll Learn:The origin and intent of the Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration ActWhy surf and shore anglers often get less benefit from the taxes they payHow tax revenue is distributed—and how that could be improvedSuccess stories: where the tax is working as intendedSimple ways anglers can get involved and push for changeResources & Mentions:The Dingell-Johnson ActThe Wallop-Breaux AmendmentChesapeake Bay Restoration ProjectYour state fish and wildlife agency (for checking access project allocations)Tag us and share your thoughts on Instagram, Facebook, or wherever you fish online.Available now wherever you get your podcasts.Subscribe, rate, and leave a review to help us keep this conversation going!This Episode Is Sponsored By: DS Custom Tackle: Tackle Supply for all anglers.

Public lands and waters have risen to the forefront of hunter-angler issues in 2025, from Utah's attempted steal of 18.5 million acres of land owned by us all and managed by the Bureau of Land Management to divestment and sale of public lands being floated in Congress and the shrinking of the Federal workforce charged with overseeing the health of our shared resources.

What lies at the bottom of the ocean? Well, we know a little bit about what's at the bottom - Angler fish, the Titanic, fallen satellites, but so much of it is still a mystery. In today's message, Pastor Ricky teaches that life's mysteries can make you scratch your head, but God knows the who, what, when, and where. Maybe the bottom of the sea really does have sea dragons, or maybe it's nothing but sand. Nevertheless, trust in God because He knows the answer to every mystery.
Today, we tackle a topic that has been looming over fishing tackle for the past few weeks that no one, especially the tackle brands themselves, really wants to talk about. But that's ok, that's what we're here for! We are going to do our best to arm you with actual, factual information about the current foreign trade and tarrif situation, to help you better understand if and when you should buy your tackle, and the imminent changes that are coming to price tags on a shelf near you. Buckle up.. because this one's a doozy! Brought to you by: American Legacy Fishing & Outdoors www.americanlegacyfishing.com Use Code: TACKLETALK5 for 5% Off (including sale items!)
