If you're consistently struggling to catch fish, you're probably trying to figure out why. Are your casts bad? Poor fly selection? Are the planets just aligned against you? While all that CAN have an impact, you're often struggling to put fish in the net because of one problem: you're not focusing on the fundamentals. In this week's episode of Untangled, Spencer Durrant walks you through the three basics of fly fishing -- casting, fly selection, and presentation -- and why you need to focus on those when nothing else seems to be working. You'll also learn about: Casting single dry flies, and setting up rigs for single dry fly fishing How much tippet to use when setting up multi-fly rigs What to do when you don't catch fish from water that looks PERFECT LINKS FROM THE SHOW Get the FREE Rigs & Knots Pocket Guide - CHECK IT OUT Join the VFC Online Community - CHECK IT OUT QUESTIONS FOR THE SHOW - SUBMIT HERE #LIVEREELLIFE MOMENT - SUBMIT HERE

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with Susquehanna River legend Joe Raymond for an in-depth conversation about his life, his guiding career, and how the river is fishing this fall. Joe has been a staple on the Susquehanna since 2012, building his reputation as one of the most respected anglers and guides on the river.From wading small creeks as a kid to buying his first boat in his 20s, Joe's journey has always led back to the Susquehanna. Over the years, he's developed an unmatched instinct for reading current, locating structure, and consistently finding fish—skills that have made him both a sought-after guide and a proven tournament competitor.In this episode, Joe shares a fall Susquehanna River fishing report, insight into what makes this fishery so unique, and stories from his life on the water. We also dive into his career milestone on September 22, 2024, when he landed the biggest recorded smallmouth bass ever caught on the Susquehanna: a 24-inch, 7.08 lb giant during a Bassmaster Open in Williamsport.Whether you're a fan of river fishing, chasing trophy smallmouth, or just love hearing from the legends of the sport, this is an episode you won't want to miss!Please support Fishing the DMV on Patreon!!! https://patreon.com/FishingtheDMVPodcast Fishing the DMV now has a website: https://www.fishingthedmv.com/ If you are interested in being on the show or a sponsorship opportunity, please reach out to me at fishingtheDMV@gmail.com Susquehanna Smallmouth Guides: https://www.susquehannasmallmouthguides.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaffw9wogVD4JYlVZiefCGhVhouePJ9SDWFvsQISEC6xHjIkZ-8hAgabLRtIEg_aem_XW0Nwe9K-KUZYjro0N3MNw Joe Raymond on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susquehanna_smallmouth_guide?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== Joe Raymond on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7EtHdwBR3QZAsw9AETUq2g Please checkout our Patreon Sponsors Jake's bait & Tackle website: http://www.jakesbaitandtackle.com/Catoctin Creek Custom Rods: https://www.facebook.com/CatoctinCreekCustomRodsTiger Crankbaits on Facebook!! https://www.facebook.com/tigercrankbaits Fishing the DMV Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/Arensbassin/?ref=pages_you_manage Fishing the DMV Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/fishingthedmv/?utm_medium=copy_link #bassfishing #Smallmouthbass #fallfishing Support the show
Send us a textIn this episode, I sit down with Maryland fisheries biologist Ryan Gary to dive deep into one of the most debated topics in bass fishing: forward-facing sonar. Ryan compiled and analyzed data from the entire 2025 Major League Fishing Bass Pro Tour season, comparing tournament outcomes, trends, and outliers between anglers who relied on sonar and those who didn't. We break down what the numbers reveal, discuss how technology is shaping the sport, and uncover insights every angler can learn from.If you've ever wondered just how much FFS is impacting bass fishing—or whether the controversy is backed by real data—this is an episode you won't want to miss.

A simple observation about the surge of summer night tournaments on social media sparked a deeper research dive into a critical question facing tournament anglers: when does water temperature cross the line from challenging to dangerous for bass? In this informative episode of The Bass Vault, we explore the science behind bass temperature tolerance - they prefer 65-75 degrees for optimal activity and can handle up to 86 degrees before becoming sluggish and stressed. Learn about the environmental factors that create deadly conditions for bass in hot weather, including oxygen depletion in deeper water layers and thermal stratification that traps bass between scorching surface temperatures and oxygen-poor depths. The episode examines why summer tournaments see increased fish mortality and offers practical solutions every tournament angler should know: proper livewell aeration systems, using ice and stress-reducing additives, and advocating for shorter tournament hours during cooler parts of the day (6 AM to 12 PM). A must-listen for conscientious tournament anglers who want to balance competitive fishing with responsible fish care during the challenging summer months.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bass-cast-radio--1838782/support.Become a Patreon memebet now for less then a pack of worms you can support Bass Cast Radio as well as get each epsiode a day early & commercial free.

After 50+ years of searching for the perfect bass fishing method and trying countless baits, reels, and techniques, Bruce Callis Jr. reveals the most important tool in any angler's arsenal: your mind. In this reflective and inspiring episode of The Bass Vault, Bruce shares how he's spent decades absorbing knowledge from professional anglers, local experts, magazines like Bassmaster, and even beginners who sometimes catch fish by doing things "wrong." He emphasizes that continuous learning - from Boy Scout youth BASS clubs to modern podcasts and videos - has been the key to his success, not any specific tackle or technique. Bruce recounts a powerful tournament story where he chose to share winning information with struggling competitors, losing by just 1/4 inch on big bass but gaining something more valuable. The episode drives home that fishing is ultimately about having fun while constantly improving, listening to others, adapting new techniques to your style, and never stopping the pursuit of knowledge. A perfect reminder that "a mind is a terrible thing to waste" - especially when it comes to bass fishing.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bass-cast-radio--1838782/support.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I'm joined by Dave Miller to dive into one of the most heated conservation debates facing our waters today overspray of herbicides in our local bodies of water. We tackle a hot-button issue shaking up the fishing and conservation community: The decision to use diquat dibromide—a federally approved herbicide that's banned in the European Union—to combat the spread of subaquatic grass has sparked serious concerns. Critics warn it is creating ecological disasters, killing fish in lakes, making people sick, and even causing the deaths of pets.A recent opinion piece slammed the move as reckless and undemocratic, arguing that spraying chemicals into public waterways risks fish kills, long-term ecological damage, and public health concerns. Critics point out the decision was made quietly by federal and state agencies, without town halls, public consent, or community input, raising serious questions about accountability.Even more concerning, this is part of a pilot program that could expand to other states if considered successful—potentially setting a precedent for how invasive species are managed nationwide. Meanwhile, alternatives such as mechanical removal and less toxic treatments have largely been overlooked.
