Fly Fish Forever
The official podcast of Fly Fishers International. Join us each season as we explore the incredible people and places of the sport of fly-fishing. In Season I, we will travel across the varied landscapes of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. Covering over 64,000 square miles, with more than 100,000 streams, creeks and rivers, the watershed stretches from central New York to southern Virginia and boasts an incredible diversity of species to target on the fly. Over the season's 20 episodes we will meet with some of the top guides, anglers and conservationists in the region. Whether you want to learn to target a new species, understand the massive effort underway to restore the Bay, or just hear from a wide and diverse range of experts, this season is for you. Presented by Fly Fishers International. Sponsored by Costa Sunglasses and Cheeky Fishing.
