FEMBOY FISHING - 2 OLD FARTS TALKING FISHING AND FISH TACOS EP 343

Quick throw back to Fishing Austin and Central Texas-Aaron’s spots are his favorite wades. A boat can change the game (as he mentions).  John Geirach in his 1994 book Dances with Trout describes a good paddle in his little canoe where he has a fine time catching bass and such back in the days before the surge.  Both the rivers he diddles around on are in Aaron’s book (Nueces and Guadalupe)

The Show-We are going to monthly.  We cannot worry about what other podcasts do or what the pundits and experts say is necessary to have a good podcast.  That’s fine for people who want to follow formulas that make money and content is dictated by what sells.  We could do an a-hole POV podcast like that guy joe rogaine or yet another crime podcast but we are hardcore indie. And we are about fish fishing and eating fish.  We do not follow any rules and never have.  We do not have a narrow niche, we do not have a regular format (we do have a loose framework currently) and try as we might we do not have consistent release dates scheduled precisely.  We are punk rock and while our production limitations are not the result of chemicals and ego they are the result of raising families, founding businesses, doing research and dividing our creativity and energy as best we can over any number of projects, in other words doing our thing.  And Fish Nerds is one of our things.  And so it survives and we keep casting pod and rod! Clay and his ever evolving merry band of helpers have broadcast this pod since 2011! So please enjoy the show, we have made all the segments a bit longer than usual just to tide y’all over.  We may get some bonus material done, we made not. One thing that never has changed is we got the best dang listeners in the podcasting universe and we sure appreciate you stopping by to get your ears filled up with fish stuff.  Now let’s get after it!

If you name your daughter Crystal she probably gonna be a wild thing.  It’s a pretty name but dang if i have known a bunch of women named Crystal all of which could be talked into a bad idea pretty easy.  At least Ms. Dixon had the sense to dump “Cruz” and ge the hell out of Dodge
