On this episode of Fishing the DMV, Captain Travis Edens of King Fisher Guide Services and Jared from Jake's Bait & Tackle break down how to catch summer smallmouth bass on the Shenandoah River during hot, low-water conditions.Travis explains where Shenandoah River smallmouth position around current seams, ledges, deeper holes, outside bends, wood, rocks, shade and subtle depth changes. We also break down some of the best summer smallmouth baits, including his weighted white fluke setup, jerkbaits, Whopper Plopper 110s, buzzbaits, spinnerbaits, marabou jigs and hair jigs.You'll also learn how to fish push water around river ledges, approach shallow clear water without spooking fish, position your kayak or boat in moving water, and determine when smallmouth are feeding shallow versus holding in deeper current.One of the biggest lessons from this episode: summer river smallmouth aren't always sitting in the deepest hole. Small changes in current, depth, cover and shade can concentrate some of the best fish in the river.If you fish the Shenandoah River, Potomac River, New River, James River, Susquehanna River, or any moving-water smallmouth fishery, this episode is packed with river fishing tips you can use on your next trip.Kingfisher Website: http://www.kfguideservices.com/ Kingfisher Email Address: tedens@kfguideservices.com Kingfisher Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/POTOMACRIVERSMALLIES#!/potomacriversmallmouth Kingfisher Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kingfisherguideservices/?hl=en Please support Fishing the DMV on Patreon!!! https://patreon.com/FishingtheDMVPodcast If you are interested in being on the show or a sponsorship opportunity, please reach out to me at fishingtheDMV@gmail.com Green Top: https://www.greentop.com/ Jake's bait & Tackle Website: http://www.jakesbaitandtackle.com/ Fishing Pro Tech: https://www.facebook.com/FishingProTech Phone Number: (757) 566-1278 Email: lin@fishingprotech.us Fishing Pro Tech Address: 7812-A Richmond Road, Toano, VA, United States, 23168 Flint Financial Planning: https://www.flintfinancialplanning.com/ FITT Lures: https://bit.ly/4w5lgHt Support the show

If you were lucky enough, or privileged enough, to experience summer camp as a kid or teenager, the experience likely made a lasting impression on you. Sleepaway camps have certainly inspired filmmakers over the years, as the rustic settings and wide-eyed young people experiencing their first taste of freedom have proven fertile creative ground for numerous genres, from coming-of-age films to comedies to horror films to sex romps. So for one of our 2026 Summer Specials, the Great Pop Culture Debate wants to go wild as we attempt to name the best summer camp movie.Movies discussed: Dirty Dancing (1987), Little Darlings, Ernest Goes to Camp, The Great Outdoors, Friday the 13th (1980), Camp Rock, Space Camp, Wet Hot American Summer, Addams Family Values, Daddy Day Camp, Meatballs, Moonrise Kingdom, The Parent Trap (1998), Sleepaway Camp (1983), Camp (2003), Troop Beverly HillsJoin host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD Panelists Amma Marfo, Amy Pilott, and Trey Radu-Blackburn as they discuss and debate 16 of the most memorable films set at summer camps.For the warm-up to this episode, in which we discuss additional movies set at summer camps that didn't make the bracket, become a Patreon supporter of the podcast today.

The Kara Report | Online Marketing Tips and Candid Business Conversations
Summer is officially here. Which means it's time to figure out how you're actually going to market your business for the next few months, when fewer people are online, your analytics dip, and everyone's outside touching grass instead of refreshing the feed.Here's the move most people make when they see their analytics dip: double down and push harder. And honestly? That can work. But this year, I'm doing the opposite. I'm cutting my own marketing almost in half. On purpose. In this episode, I'm walking you through exactly what I'm keeping, what I'm dropping, and why scaling back strategically might be the smartest summer marketing decision you make (because going dark is the worst thing you can do).Most of our businesses have seasonal fluctuations whether we like it or not. Capacity dips, trips happen, and the content that felt easy in spring starts to feel like a slog by July. The good news? You don't have to grind through it. There's a version of summer marketing that keeps you visible, keeps you sane, and actually makes your business look more magnetic, not less.If you've been feeling stretched thin, guilty about the platform you keep ignoring, or quietly burnt out on making content, consider this your permission slip. I'll show you how to pick what to drop before summer picks for you, and how to market in a way that actually feels fun again.
Every business eventually hits a plateau.You know the feeling. You're working hard, showing up consistently, and doing all the things you've been told to do—but the growth you're looking for just isn't happening.In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what's been happening inside my own brick-and-mortar business, The Dancing House.Over the past year, I've pulled every major growth lever available:✔️ Increased our prices and positioned ourselves as a premium offering.✔️ Reduced expenses and improved profitability.✔️ Tightened operations and systems.But none of those changes explain why we're experiencing our best summer enrollment in 17 years.The biggest shift came when I became certified in the Pumpkin Plan framework and used my own business as the test case. Instead of focusing solely on who we are, what we do, and who we serve, I went deeper. I started listening more closely to what our customers were actually saying.That insight changed everything.In this episode, I'm sharing:• The growth levers every business owner should understand• Why most marketing messages miss the mark• How customer language can transform your visibility• The messaging shift that helped drive our strongest summer enrollment ever• Why clarity beats complexity when it comes to marketingIf your business feels stuck, plateaued, or like you've tried everything, this conversation may help you identify the next lever to pull.And make sure you listen all the way to the end—I have a special offer exclusively for podcast listeners.Resources Mentioned:

Summer is here and if you're a working mom, you already know the tension. Your schedule doesn't change, but everything else does. The kids are home, the routine is gone, and somehow, it's August before you've done a single thing you actually wanted to do this season. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on three new systems I'm personally testing with my family this summer, not because I have it all figured out, but because I got tired of summers that felt chaotic, screen-time battles I was losing daily, and kids who forgot how to be helpful the moment school let out. I'm sharing exactly what we're trying: themed after-camp evenings so nobody's asking "what do we do?" (including me), a once-and-done approach to screen time rules that I'm hoping will save my sanity, and a simple daily practice plus weekly chore system designed to keep the summer vibes and make some actual progress. Take what resonates, leave what doesn't, and maybe find one idea worth trying in your own home this summer. ==========================

They leave behind imprints, not footnotes. They speak in a language that doesn't describe reality—it alters it. Sol Luckman is one of these beings.”“If you haven't yet swum in the Taijitu of Sol Luckman's brilliance, I implore you to go explore. I am taken joyfully aback by his deliberate consideration at every turn. Honestly, it feels like manna and I am better for it.”“I could spend all day reading, viewing, listening and learning from all you post. Resonation Station here. Thank you!”“I and others I've worked with have gotten serious, life-saving oomph and vital energy from the kinds of epic ideation and dialogic resonance Sol Luckman explores in his fiction and nonfiction writings.”“Your writing is valuable to me because I personally love it, and I think it's a great offer to the world.”“I just heard you on someone's podcast and it blew me away.”“I'm interested in this new information. It's obvious that Sol has given a great deal of courageous energy and thought.”“Sol has pulled me out of the ‘rabbit hole' to rise above and thrive in thought and actions that have enlightened my soul!”“Thank you, Sol Luckman, for your brilliant takes on reality and the world cult and finding our true potential in the face of ‘the parasite' that surrounds us. You combine such insights with such wit and originality. Robert A. Wilson would be proud, methinks.”“You do an amazing job every time and it's always fresh and interesting!”“Very interesting and informative work.”“Your work is a very different way of approaching life and very different from the mainstream. It makes a lot more sense to me these days.”“Being able to discern ‘reality,' or least unreality, is essential, and your work helps clarify.”“You're a legend!” Thank you for subscribing.

Hi mama, Summer can be one of the most magical seasons when you have kids. Beach days, ice cream runs, pool time, backyard dinners, and those long evenings when the sun doesn't seem to set. But for working moms, summer also comes with a lot of logistics and planning. Between camps, sports schedules, vacations, childcare, and work responsibilities, it can feel like summer becomes another schedule to manage instead of a season to enjoy. In today's episode, I share a simple framework to help working moms plan an intentional summer so you can handle the logistics while still creating meaningful family memories. Instead of letting summer fly by in a blur, a little planning now can help your family experience a season that feels more relaxed, fun, and connected. What You'll Learn in This Episode
