Show Notes:  https://wetflyswing.com/624 Presented By: FishHound Expeditions, Guide Book, Stonefly Nets, Drifthook Fly Fishing Today, we've got Mike Simboski and Allie Flake from Smith Optics to tell us all about choosing the right glasses for fishing. Hear about the history of Smith Optics, tips for picking the best lenses, and some affordable options. Plus, we'll dive into ChromaPop lenses and discover which glasses are the all-time best sellers. Episode Chapters with Allie Flake and Michael Simboski on Smith Optics  2:46 – Allie has been in the eyewear industry for over 15 years. She worked for various brands like Oliver Peoples, ROKA, and Costa Del Mar. She's been with Smith as their eyewear category manager for four years. 4:44 – Mike always wanted to work in the outdoor industry. During college, he interned for a sales agency in Utah that repped Smith Optics and other brands. He worked with them for about six years. Smith restructured their sales force two years ago, and Mike got the dream job. 9:40 – Smith Optics started with Dr. Bob Smith in 1965 in Sun Valley, Idaho. He wanted better ski goggles to stay on the slopes longer., so he used his dentistry tools to create a thermal lens with breathable vent foam. The idea was inspired by double-paned windows that didn't fog up. Smith started with snow gear and later expanded to eyewear in the late 1970s and early 1980s. 13:15 –  For 2025, they will focus on creating new and exciting styles while staying affordable. They're adding more budget-friendly water activity options without compromising quality. Finding the Perfect Glasses 17:32 – Mike explains that you can easily find where to try on Smith Optics glasses by using the dealer locator on their website. 19:00 – Allie explains how to pick the best lenses for your fishing needs. The choice depends on factors like the type of fish, environment, and weather.            Smith Optics also offers polycarbonate lenses for those who prefer lighter options or have different budget needs. 21:42 – Mike suggests matching the lens color to your surroundings, like using brown or green for places with lots of browns and greens. He also notes that blue mirror lenses are great for saltwater fishing. ChromaPop Technology 25:41 – ChromaPop filters out specific colors to enhance clarity, depth perception, and true color. Allie mentions that by next year, all their lenses will feature ChromaPop. This technology has been around since 2014, and they're now expanding it to all their products, not just sports gear. Core Line: Sunglasses Made from Recycled Bottles 35:00 – Smith's Core Line is a range of sunglasses made from recycled water bottles. Each pair uses about three or four bottles. The lenses are also eco-friendly and made from bio resin nylon. Tips for Choosing the Right Fishing Sunglasses 40:00 –  Mike mentions the importance of choosing the right size of glasses. He also highlights the benefits of using an integrated leash to prevent losing your glasses. Glass lenses are available in various styles for those looking for the best clarity. Mike and Allie both recommend the Lowdown XL 2 as a versatile, everyday option. Show Notes:  https://wetflyswing.com/624

In this one, Cody talks to Tim Weisser. Like so many people, he came to Alaska to chase a dream. It was 1993 and he was a young snowboarder who wanted to ride the drastic and iconic mountains Alaska is known for. He had visions of bluebird days and big pow turns. So, with a few hundred bucks and his snowboard gear, he moved to Girdwood. There, he got a dishwashing job at Chair 5, but it wasn't long until he met Rob Baker, who worked at Boarderline, a snow and skate shop in Anchorage. That meeting between Tim and Rob led to a phone interview with one of the owners, Cody's dad, Scott Liska.   Tim went on to work at the Dimond Center Boarderline. He found that he was good at keeping the shop tidy and also mentoring some of the kids who came into the shop. He grew up with a few mentors of his own, so he felt a responsibility to pay it forward. He realized that these kids didn't always need advice, what they needed was somebody to listen to them and to acknowledge their hardships.   In 1994, Tim opened up the first Juneau Boarderline. He took the ferry there and the first thing he did was ditch his surfboard in the bushes. He says he didn't wanna drive around Juneau looking like a kook with a surfboard on his car. So, the next thing he does is call Scott to see what his next move should be. Scott tells him to get a hold of a 15 year old kid named Chris Currier. Chris had been calling the shop in Anchorage and talking about how Juneau needs a snow and skate shop there. Chris, by the way, would soon become one of the first Juneau Boys, a group of riders in Juneau who were pushing the boundaries of snowboarding in the ‘90s and early 2000s.   After his time in Alaska, he went on to have a successful career in sales in the snowboard industry. He worked for Nitro Snowboards, DaKine and Smith Optics. Throughout his time in sales, he worked as a rep, in customer service, as a Marketing Manager, a Product Manager and then as a Sales Manager. Those jobs gave him the opportunity to snowboard, but more importantly, through them, he was introduced to people he now considers family. That same thing was true for Alaska. He says that most of his memories of the riding he did there have faded away over the years. There's a couple standout days, for sure, but it was everything around snowboarding and around the scene that really made an impression on him.

Shannon Vandivier is a filmmaker and photographer who directed the recently released Youtube series following the inaugural Life Time Grand Prix, Call of a Life Time. His production company, Cold Collaborative, has worked with brands like YETI, Smith Optics, and Orange Seal to create award-winning movies about the outdoor industry, including Payson's 2019 White Rim FKT project, Standing Man. In this interview, he tells Payson about growing up chasing tornadoes with his photojournalist dad and learning to shoot on a film camera at the age of six. He talks about the importance of constructing a story, no matter what the subject matter of a project is, and why he was so eager to create a series that makes gravel as compelling and character-driven as Drive to Survive has done for Formula One. They talk about the unique challenge of filming off-road cycling, including terrain, speed, safety, and interviewing athletes during some of the most hectic moments of their careers. They also talk about the feedback they've received from viewers, and how he plans to adapt the series in the upcoming season.Instagram: @theadventurestache
