Fishing Podcasts

MLF Bass Fishing Podcast lives where a pro season turns on a points formula. In Josh Bertrand is ready for a reset on the Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit, Bertrand explains how the Bass Pro Tour cut its field from 80 to 50 and says he was "the next phone call." He sounds more curious than bitter. The conversation sketches how bass fishing swung from Japanese finesse to a "bubba phase" of square bills and flipping, then back again as pressure and electronics changed the lakes.

Tackle Talk - Bass Fishing Podcast watches tournaments with a tackle box open. In Ep. 339 - Bassmaster Classic Preview w/ Special Guest: RONNIE MOORE, dated March 10, 2026, Moore picks out where Fort Loudon "acts more like a lake," and the talk settles on a chatterbait as the likely winning bait. A week earlier, Andrew Hayes said chatterbaits miss his short list in 45 to 55 degree water coming out of winter. Good fishing advice comes with a water temperature attached.

Cast and Crank Fishing podcast is the profane end of the bench. In Episode 359 Paul Tutujun of Chaos Baits, host Nick returns from a break saying he quit drinking and thinks he lost 75 pounds. The talk soon reaches paint that peels when a pricey soft swimbait meets rocks. It is loud and full of in-jokes, and patient listeners get real shop knowledge.

Fat A.Z. Musky Podcast is handmade at a lower volume. In Pre Muskie Max, Story from last summer, the hosts describe a child named Ava painting ten baits of her own. They also explain the shortcuts that let them sell a $40 bait instead of a $90 one.

The Articulate Fly is the specialist's room. In Castability Unleashed: Mark Sedotti's Journey with the Sedotti Slammer, Sedotti explains "weight balancing" a big streamer against air drag and recalls casting a 10-inch fly 189 feet. In The Legacy of Classic Flies: Allen Rupp's Insights on Timeless Patterns, Rupp buys saddle feathers by the pound in the garment district. He describes spending 18 months getting his near enough crayfish approved. Host Marvin remarks that "you can't design flies if you're not solving fishing problems," and Rupp answers with a flat "100% correct."

Casting Across Fly Fishing is the one to hand a beginner. Matthew delivers commentary in episodes of 24 and 30 minutes. [Cast1] Opening Day, pitched at new anglers, covers licenses, last season's gnarled leaders, chilly spring mornings and checking flows before wading. It refuses to treat a stream thermometer as a guarantee: "You have to pay attention." Fly Fishing Elitism is Dead... calls the snob image mostly a trope, then turns on the people who sought to topple it.

Musky anglers argue about rules, and Back Lash Musky Fishing Podcast gives that argument room. In 361 - Pete Maina and Rob Manthei talk about Early Season Musky, the guests describe lining up a contact in every affected county. Their aim is a resolution at the Wisconsin Conservation Congress to undo a newly opened early season, and they also air frustration over stocking rules. In 360 - Early-Season Shakeup, and What Comes Next, one voice says stocking worries him far more. Then 362 - Ryan Becker - Early Season Musky returns to the boat. Becker explains moving to 100-pound braid after snapping off a big glide bait on Vermilion.

Some shows are about belonging to a place. Living the Outdoors is Marc Drewek's broadcast on The Score, ranging across hunting, UTVs and ice. In Living the Outdoors with Marc Drewek: 1/14/26, guide Brian Brosdahl compares tungsten and lead spoons and reports maggots beating waxworms and minnows that day. He also recalls telling his sister-in-law at nine that "fishing is my excuse to be in extraordinary places." The duck and turkey talk points toward the Hunting page.

Paul Bunyan Country Outdoors, where guests check in with Kev, ran 23 to 44 minutes in these episodes, each wrapped in sponsor reads. BURBOT BROS: Tim Humphrey & Matt Morgan Talk Burbot...and a Bunch Of Other Cool Things worries over rusty crawfish crowding burbot spawning beds. In TWEENER TIME #2: Dick Beardsley Discusses Late Ice, Spring SoDak Run & The Coming Softwater Season, Beardsley, who now runs a guide service, recalls losing the 1982 Boston Marathon by 1.6 seconds. Runners can follow that thread to the Running page.

The Midwest Angler Podcast is the loosest of the three, with a good-news segment and burnt-cookie teasing aimed at Scott Sturman. Episode 256 (Hooked On Hardwater 2024 recap with Craig Oyler) shows its heart: 60 professional ice anglers paired with 60 to 70 underprivileged boys and taken fishing. Broader outdoor listening lives on the Outdoor Sports page.

Tom Rowland Podcast ran 71 to 79 minutes in these episodes, behind a stack of sponsor reads, and rewards the time. In Bouncer Smith | Legendary Miami Guide and Author | Ep. 1009, Smith promotes Project Seasafe, set for April 17 through 26. He also recalls the move to chemically sharpened hooks: "If the hooks are not sharpened, put on a new one." Nick Honachefsky | "Saltwater Underground" | Ep. 1008 tracks sheepshead breeding again, then the conversation wanders off to a 20-foot praying mantis. A Dall sheep episode with Kyle Gemas leans toward the Hunting page, and boat people may also want Water Sports.
