Episode Summary

Welcome to the next episode of the Fishing Journeys Podcasts.  I have a special treat for you, a two-part episode with one the true gentleman and thought leaders in fly fishing today, Derek Bird. This conversation was so fun and thought provoking, we had enough material for two parts.  No worries though, we are posting part-two tomorrow and depending on when you are listening, it’s probably already live.  When you are done with part-one just head over to part-two.  I like to be mindful of the podcast lengths as so many of you listen in your car, on your commutes.
