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.

In this episode of Waypoints, we return to the heart of one of the most important — and complex — conservation stories in the world of flyfishing: the state of Montana's Big Hole and the rivers of southwest Montana. Nearly two years after the New York Times released an article focusing on declining fish populations throughout the region, recent data from Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks suggests that there may be signs of hope and recovery for wild trout. But with mixed messages, differing perspectives, and strong emotions still swirling throughout the guide, outfitting, and recreational angling communities, the real story is far from simple. Joined by Jim Olsen – Fisheries Biologist for Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks in the Big Hole River basin – and by Eric Thorson – co-owner of Sunrise Fly Shop in Melrose, Montana – host Jim Klug digs into the facts, revisits the concerns, and examines what's really going on beneath the surface of these legendary waters.Why should this topic matter to anglers from outside of Montana and across the country? Because what happens in the Big Hole doesn't stay in the Big Hole. These rivers are ground zero for a larger conversation about climate change, water use, fishing pressure, wild trout resilience, and the future of angling in the American West. Whether you've fished these waters for decades, or plan to someday cast a line in Montana, this episode offers critical insight into how science, community, and conservation are colliding in real time — and what that means for the future of wild trout.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild.

In episode one of this two-part series on Belize, Jim and guests discuss why Belize is such a popular and important angling destination, talk travel logistics and the best ways to get to Belize, break down the species found throughout the country, review relevant and effective gear and equipment, talk favorite flies, and discuss lodge packages and all-inclusive options versus DIY scenarios. Klug literally wrote the book on Belize (Fly Fishing Belize in 2014), and in his discussions with Kelsic and Gregson (two anglers who truly know the ins-and-outs of this amazing Caribbean country), goes deep on details to help with planning and researching future trips.- Visit our Belize fly fishing lodges page - View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.

Stream access rights and regulations in the United States vary throughout the country, and depending on where exactly you're fishing, the laws dealing with how you can enter a riverbed or step into the water can be wildly different. The subject is a complicated one, and with a growing number of anglers and a continued increase in the popularity of fishing, the stream access issue has dramatically heated up over the past several years. In the midst of the continuing and heated battle for public access and fishing rights throughout the US, a company called Rare Waters is offering what they believe is a unique option to diversify angler access. With the Rare Waters model, individual anglers can secure river access to private property through an “Air-BNB-like” pay-to-play platform. They've created a network with property owners – primarily and initially in the US West – who are willing – for a fee – to grant access to anglers looking for both solitude and exclusive access. And while Rare Waters is not buying up properties and converting public waters into private waters, a lot of anglers nonetheless have very strong opinions on public access and the pay-to-access scenarios. In this episode, Waypoints host Jim Klug is joined by RJ Hosking and Brendan Stucky of Rare Waters for a discussion about stream access, private property rights, the history of private “fishing clubs,” and the effects of increased angling pressure on our rivers and streams.- View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.

At more than 850,000 square miles in size with a total population of less than 57,000 people, Greenland is the world's largest island. While more than 80% of the country is covered with ice on a year-round basis, the summer months for the coastal areas bring ice-free arctic tundra, crystal-clear conditions on freestone rivers, and incredible numbers of sea-run Arctic Char. This episode of Waypoints – recorded on location in Greenland during a recent ten day trip – focuses on two different locations and operations: Camp North on the Eqalugsugssuit River, and Erfalik Lodge on the Erfalik River. Waypoints host Jim Klug talks with Thomas Sobirk – the founder of Fly Fish Greenland – about fishing for sea-run char, the characteristics of the rivers, seasons in Greenland, flies and equipment, travel logistics, landscapes, the history of the operation, and more. This is one of the most exciting new options in the entire world of adventure and destination angling – ideal for those that love remote locations, rugged landscapes, and rivers that are totally and completely off the grid.- View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- Visit our Greenland page- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.

There's no question that Patagonia is one of the premier freshwater fly fishing destinations in the world – a dynamic, one-of-a-kind region in South America that is home to dozens of world-class lodges, experienced and professional guides, and more rivers, streams, and lakes than can possibly be fished in a lifetime. The options and choices are both plentiful and varied, however, which is why deciding exactly where, when, and how to fish Patagonia can at times be confusing. This is especially true when initially choosing between Chile and Argentina. To discuss the many differences between the two countries – and to talk Patagonia in general – we're joined on this episode by Jack Porter, Yellow Dog Flyfishing's Program Director for South America. Jack has lived in Argentina, worked at several lodges in Patagonia, and – during his time at Yellow Dog – assisted thousands of anglers with planning trips to one of the most incredible fly fishing regions on the planet.- View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- Visit our Argentina and Chile pages- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.

In the spring of 2023, Montana's media started to highlight the fact that wild trout populations in Montana's Jefferson Basin – an area that includes the world-famous Big Hole, Ruby, Beaverhead and Jefferson Rivers – were in severe distress. Legendary for cold-water fisheries that have historically supported an abundance of wild trout, the rivers in Southwest Montana are currently experiencing what some are calling a population-level collapse. Is it too late to save Southwest Montana's wild fish numbers and fix are rivers, or is there still hope for the near future when it comes to our fisheries resources? That is the question that needs to be asked and answered. SAVE WILD TROUT is an organization that was launched to address this very crisis: a coalition of anglers, river advocates, concerned citizens, businesses, guides, and outfitters that have come together with the focused mission of protecting wild trout for the benefit of all. In this episode of Waypoints, Jim is joined by two founding members of SAVE WILD TROUT: Guy Alsentzer and Wade Fellin – two individuals who know a thing or two about the rivers of Southwest Montana. Guy is the Executive Director and Founder of Upper Missouri Waterkeeper, and Wade is a guide, lodge owner and outfitter on the Big Hole River.- View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.

Mike Tayloe is the co-owner and Director of Operations of Finns West, an outdoor company that provides Wilderness First Aid courses and Emergency Action Plan development for fishing lodges, outfitters and guides. Tayloe has combined his profession as a paramedic with his extensive background as a professional international fly fishing guide to create a much-needed, oft-overlooked service for the travel industry. Tayloe joined us on an early episode of WAYPOINTS (Episode 2), and he's back in Episode 49 to discuss how we – as traveling anglers – can better prepare for emergency medical situations and avoid accidents and emergencies when traveling. He's going to share a number of real-life emergency events to analyze what went right or wrong, talk about key pieces of medical gear to bring along when traveling, discuss what to do when the unexpected occurs, and define the importance of having a medical and evac plan when traveling off the grid or to distant waters.- View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.

Umpqua Feather Merchants is one of the biggest names in the fly fishing industry: a manufacturing powerhouse when it comes to innovative and effective flies, leader, tippet, premium hooks, and more. In this episode of Waypoints, we talk with Umpqua's Director of Marketing, Russ Miller, to discuss the company's position at the forefront of innovation for high-quality flies and accessories. When anglers grab a handful of patterns from the fly bins of a specialty fly shop, most are unaware of WHERE exactly those flies came from: how they were conceived, designed, produced, tied, shipped, and supplied. Russ talks about how flies are selected for inclusion in Umpqua's catalog, their famous “Signature Tyer” line-up, new innovations and introductions, and what the future holds for fly patterns, hooks, and materials.- View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.

Christmas Island – the world's largest coral atoll – has a legendary reputation as one of the top destinations in the world for saltwater flats fishing – especially when it comes to massive numbers of bonefish. Also known as Kiritimati Atoll, Christmas is an immense coral outcropping located in the tiny Pacific Ocean Republic of Kiribati. Christmas itself has the greatest land area of any atoll in the world, and the enormous flats system that surrounds this land mass and encompasses the atoll's inner lagoon is home to countless numbers of bonefish, several species of trevally, milkfish, triggerfish, and more. Christmas Island has – until only recently – been completely closed and shut off for more than three years. The country of Kiribati was among the first countries to lock down in the winter of 2020 at the very outset of the Pandemic. Since that time, until early May of 2023, the country has remained 100% closed off to visitors and anglers – longer than any other international fishing destination. In this episode of WAYPOINTS, host Jim Klug talks with angler Tim Rote, who was on the first plane back to Christmas Island for the opening week. After more than three years and one month of the atoll being closed, Tim talks about what the first group back found, and the current state of the atoll, the communities on Christmas, the lodges, and of course the fishery.- View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- Visit our Christmas Island page- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.

In the second episode in our two-part series on Cuba, host Jim Klug is joined once again by Kristen Tripp – Yellow Dog Flyfishing's program director for Cuba. Kristen is hands-down the most knowledgeable person in the game when it comes to both traveling in Cuba and fishing Cuba, and she's an incredible resource when it comes to planning or researching a trip to this interesting and – at times –complicated island nation. In this second Cuba episode, we focus on the actual fishing details for Cuba, discussing individual fishing destinations and location options throughout the country, the best time of the year to fish Cuba, the primary species available, the differences between live-aboard operations and land-based programs, and of course lots of talk about gear, equipment and flies for Cuba.- Follow us on Instagram- Follow us on Facebook- Subscribe to our Newsletter for trip specials, travel news, and more!- View the official Yellow Dog website
With recent announcements that the U.S. and Cuban governments are – once again – taking steps to improve relations between the two countries, the logistics and intricacies that affect American fishing travel to Cuba are evolving and changing fast. In this first episode of a two-part series on Cuba, host Jim Klug sits down with Yellow Dog Flyfishing's Cuba Program Director – Kristen Tripp – to talk about what's involved in traveling to the country, and the logistical and legal challenges that still have to be navigated, the current state of affairs in Cuba, and the reality of what's happening on the ground today. Episode one also covers how best to travel to Cuba, who should go, what to expect when traveling in-country, and what we might be able to expect in the years ahead. One of the most knowledgeable and experienced Cuba professionals in the entire world of travel, Kristen Tripp has a deep love for the people and the culture of Cuba, and she understands well the challenges involved in sending anglers to a country that can be both challenging and mesmerizing at the same time.- View all podcast episodes by going to the WAYPOINTS podcast page- Visit our Cuba fly fishing trips and lodges page- WAYPOINTS is brought to you by our friends at Fishpond.
