Casting... Indoors?
09/1/2026 | 26 min
Hear me out: I am not saying everyone can or should practice fly casting indoors. But if you can, why not? In today's episode I am really discussing how a lot of us would benefit from more and more diverse fly casting practice. Although it is essential to practice casting under ideal circumstances, it makes a whole lot of sense to also practice in realistic settings. Can you always face your target? Are you always able to go 10-to-2? Is it always feasible to fully pivot your hips while double hauling? The answer is no. So go ahead and prepare for those situations.

A Fly Fishing Christmas, 2025
26/12/2025 | 14 min
Merry Christmas from Casting Across! On this short holiday episode, I read from the 1883 edition of Fishing With the Fly. This prominent work was compiled and sold by none other than Charles F. Orvis. In this essay there are some wonderfully quaint ideas. But there are also some incredibly pertinent proverbs. As is the case with all good writing, it stands the test of time. Sit back with a creamy eggnog and enjoy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Types of Regulated Trout Water
19/12/2025 | 27 min
One of the lessons I learned too late in my fly fishing was that trout live in places that aren't labeled "trout water." Although I love and appreciate the fly fishing only, catch and release streams that are out there, they only represent a fraction of the excellent trout fishing that is available. If you limit yourself to a type of river you're missing out. Even streams that don't have any special regulations and allow for the harvest of multiple trout can be great options for the catch and release angler. Today I approach the topic of regulated water from a general perspective. Take what I say, check out your local regulations, and then pull up a map. Find fish wherever they may be.
