Hey there, Anglers and Adventurers! You won't want to miss this very special episode of The Woman Angler & Adventurer podcast. In this episode, I had the honor of speaking with Linda Greenlaw, the only female commercial swordfisherman on the East Coast, and a best-selling author. Linda shared her incredible journey from growing up on the coast of Maine, learning to fish at an early age, to becoming a passionate commercial fisherman. We dove into her experiences in sword fishing, including her first catch and the challenges she faced working in the industry. We also discussed the importance of hard work and the impacts of gender in the fishing world. Linda's insights and advice for competitive bass anglers and her views on advocacy for females in fishing were truly inspiring. Additionally, Linda talked about her transition to becoming a best-selling author after the release of "The Perfect Storm," and she opened up about the difficulty of writing her first book. We also got a glimpse into Linda's current endeavors, including her charter business and the exciting plans she has for the future. This episode is packed with incredible stories, invaluable advice, and a whole lot of inspiration. Tune in and join us as we explore Linda Greenlaw's remarkable journey on the open seas!

He has over 60 years of professional fishing experience and has accomplished more in his fishing career than most can dream about... The man has caught thousands of swordfish and tuna and has a GARAGE full of swordfish bills and artwork to prove it.In this episode of the podcast, we sit down with Captain Archie Jost. Archie is an amazing person, and incredible fisherman. He is an expert in all methods of offshore fishing for pelagics including long lining, green stick fishing, deep drop fishing, and buoy fishing. In fact, Archie has been hired by NOAA various times to help train and educate fishermen across the United States. Most recently, Archie was contracted by NOAA to help them with their five year "Deep Water Horizon Fisheries Restoration Project" and trained  U.S Gulf of Mexico commercial fisherman on buoy fishing, greenstick, and deep drop methods. Archie has fished offshore of the entire East Coast and Gulf of Mexico from Nova Scotia to Florida aboard his own boats, private sportfish programs, and aboard large commercial vessels. He longline swordfished with Linda Greenlaw aboard the "SeaHawk" and was featured on the Discovery Channel's series "Swords".Archie is a salt of the earth human, a pleasure to talk to, and a great guy to share a few laughs with. The knowledge, experience, and stories that he has are amazing. He's the type of person you want to be around all the time. We learned a ton from him in this short two hour conversation and we hope you do as well.Stay Tight,- Bryan and Taylor SearsTopics and Stories:Chasing tuna and swordfish from Stellwagen Bank to the Grand BanksRough weather storiesCatching a giant bluefin on a lobsterFishing with familyBuoy fishing, long lining, and deep dropping for swordfishGreenstick fishing in the Northeast CanyonsFishing for giant bluefin tuna in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island"Hot tub tuna machine"Fishing on Georges BankArchie's love for marine art and scrimshawWhat it was like to fish with Linda GreenlawWorking for NOAA on various projectsBuilding and outfitting a 46' Wesmac "Battlewagon"Working with the Ocean Research Foundation on studying marine mammal and fish feeding behavior and patternsThe importance of understanding bait in your fisheryFlying  and observing marine mammals and tuna from the airSponsors, Information, and Links from this podcast episode:Guests:Captain Archie JostArchie's Facebook*Episode recorded in March 2022Podcast Social Media:SeaBrosFishing: @seabrosfishingMBG Fishing Charters: @massbayguidesBryan: @mbgbryanTaylor: @mbgtaylorMBG & SeaBros Vimeo VideosSeaBros Fishing WebsiteSeaBros Swag (Tuna Mark Patch Hats) Costa Sunglasses "See what's out there."Black Oak LED Premium Marine and Outdoor Vehicle Lighting. 20% Off Promo Code: GiantbluefinMass Bay Guides Ultimate Fishing Adventures @massbayguidesSupport the show

Thirty years ago today, November 1, 1991, off the New England coast the six-man crew of the sword fishing boat the Andrea Gail were fighting, and losing, their battle with what has come to be known as The Perfect Storm. A close friend of those six was fellow swordfishing boat captain Linda Greenlaw. If you've seen the 2000 movie The Perfect Storm, Greenlaw was played by actress Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio. Greenlaw eventually wrote three books of her own, including a 2004 called All Fishermen Are Liars.

Danny Ocean is married to the sea. This week we talk about fisheries, late capitalism's guilty love letters to the American worker, and Linda Greenlaw with Brianna Bowman King. Also, the surprising origin story of the Filet-O-Fish. You can find Brianna and her writing here. Two quick notes: Sarah wants you to know she knows she confused Super Fly and Pusherman. Also, in this episode we talk about a hook going through somebody's hand so just know that if things like that make you squeamish. We made a playlist to accompany this episode! It's comprised of songs that come to mind when we all think about this movie. You Are Good is a show in which hosts Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens. You can find us on Twitter, Instagram and Patreon. You can find producer and music director Carolyn Kendrick's music here. She's also on Twitter. Fresh Lesh produces the beats for our episodes. Abigail Swartz of Gray Day Studio designed our logo!

In "Seaworthy: A Swordboat Captain Returns to the Sea," Author and swordfish boat captain Linda Greenlaw writes a sequel to "The Hungry Ocean" about her return to the swordfish business after a 10-year hiatus away from blue-water fishing when she had instead moved on to lobster fishing. Greenlaw was also depicted in the 2000 movie release entitled "The Perfect Storm." This discussion with the author took place on a 2010 episode of "Conversations On The Coast with Jim Foster" originating in San Francisco, California.

In this movie John C. Reilly plays a divorcee with a kid who can't act, John Hawkes is in love with Rusty Schwimmer, William Fitchner does his best McSullivan impression, Mark Whalburg can telepathically communicate with Diane Lane, George Clooney tries to bed Dr. Linda Greenlaw and prove he CAN in fact catch fish - and finally we know you don't care about Juan Pierre but he was also on the boat and he....dies. Talk about a Perfect Storm

What do you imagine one of the best captains on the entire east coast to look like?  The first image that pops into my mind is a burly gray bearded gristly old man.  How about if I told you the captain was an attractive brunette women? Everything about Linda Greenlaw, a best selling author and television celebrity, defies tradition in the very best possible way.  She is a women who empowers other women and helps us challenge what it is to be a woman, what it means to be a mother, and how to live life to its fullest.  Join us as we talk to her about her book Lifesaving Lessons- Notes from an Accidental Mother, when she shares her adventures as a mother of an adopted teenage girl, who had been sexually abused.   SHOW SUMMARY Link to Segment 1: Linda Greenlaw, described as one of the best captains on the entire east coast, shares her story of how at 46 yo she accidentally became a mother of a 15 year old teenager. How did Linda’s life change after deciding to become a mother?  What did she learn about herself and life after adopting a teenager? Link to Segment 2: Linda Greenlaw, author of Lifesaving Lessons- Notes from an Accidental Mother, shares the story of how her idyllic community and she changed after discovering a pedophile had been living among them for years.  How could an entire close knit community be duped for so long? Why didn’t her daughter reach out to the community for help? Link to Full 24 min episode BLOG POST FROM OUR GUEST SOURCE: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION FROM LINDAGREENLAWBOOKS.COM How did you go from fishing to writing?  It was thanks to Sebastian Junger’s very generous portrayal of me in his book, The Perfect Storm. After that, publishers basically invited me to write a book. I ended up getting an agent, who told me to write what he explained was called a proposal, for a book that ended up being The Hungry Ocean. He sent it around to editors.Then there was a phone auction and Hyperion won. It wasn’t something I’d ever imagined doing. In college, I’d majored in English because I liked to read, but I’d never taken creative writing courses. I am an old-fashioned letter-writer, but that’s not the same as writing a book. I guess I just had some confidence that I could do it. What was your impression of the movie The Perfect Storm? Did you like the way you were portrayed?  I was thrilled with Warner Bros choice of Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio to play Linda Greenlaw, and I was amazed at the special effects. The movie was Hollywood’s version of speculation as to what could have happened to the Andrea Gale, and maybe it was a little far-fetched. I don’t necessarily agree with their speculation. But I thought the movie was a nice tribute to a way of life of people who choose to go to sea. Are you still fishing?  I was hauling lobster traps up until July 7, when I started the book tour. Unfortunately I’m going to miss most of the season on the book tour. Who hauls your traps while you’re away on book tour?  My dad takes care of the traps and the boat while I’m gone. He actually prefers it when I’m gone, because it’s more fun to captain the boat than to be sternman. I’m very lucky to have my dad, that’s for sure. How is your mother?  My mother is a breast cancer survivor. She’s feisty as ever, so I think she’s doing great. How do you write – what is the process?  I am very disciplined about my writing. I treat it like I do fishing, in that it’s a job, its hard work, and I have to do it every day to do it well. I write every day from when I get up in the morning to about lunchtime and then I try to do something physical and outside the rest of the day. I write longhand in a notebook, making all of my corrections and changes on paper, and eventually I take the time to type it in to MS word. Did you ever get married? No, I’m not married but I have a very nice man in my life right now.
