If you aren't where you want to be in life currently, you aren't alone. The feeling that there's more to achieve and that you aren't growing as fast as you'd like affects everyone. So listen in as I share a few things that have helped me continually deal with this.
Did you know that most fishing rods end up breaking due to small fractures that are caused by incorrectly transporting them in the back of your truck, boat, car, etc? Yep. If you've ever had a fishing rod break while fighting a small fish (or been shocked to see it break), it's usually a result of hairline fractures caused prior to that event. Listen in as Brandon from Black Pelican Custom Rods explains more.
It's flounder time! In this episode, we break down the best flounder spots, lures, tips, and techniques for catching more flounder. Join us in a fun and entertaining discussion on flounder fishing. Pa-POW!
In this hard-hitting episode, I have Jeff Shills from Idols Aside Ministry to share some of the startling stats on how many fatherless kids are in America, how much this is costing us as a society ($100 billion per year), and what we can do about it.
Want to find the feeding fish? It's through a combination of tides, current, and trends. Listen in as we discuss how to find more feeding zones (and take your inshore saltwater fishing game up a level).
Listen in as we go LIVE with Wader Dave and Luke while fishing a small beach point for snook, speckled trout, jacks, and sharks. We discuss how to find the best wade fishing/beach fishing spots, what lures to use, and the best time of day to catch boatloads of fish. Luke even has his jack ripped to shreds! Enjoy.
In this new Unchurched episode, Jim and Martha Brangenberg of IWork4Him join me to discuss why it's so critical that Christians turn their workplace into a mission field these days. We discuss the big problems in the past, the opportunities, and why this is so important for America right now. Enjoy!
Listen in as Capt. Peter Deeks and I share some of the main discoveries from the underwater live bait investigation Peter went on over the past year. We discuss everything from the best ways to rig shrimp, how NEVER to hook certain bait fish, what really happens when a mullet it tail hooked in current, and more. Enjoy!
Exciting news! The all-new Salt Strong tackle store is officially open! Luke and I discuss the big changes, why this tackle store is disrupting the fishing tackle industry, and what to expect next. Pa-POW!!
This short video sums up everything we're going through so incredibly well. Listen in as I play this video followed by my commentary about why taking religion out of America we are shooting ourselves in the foot.
We invested in a new fishing line/knot strength test machine and it's awesome! Listen in as we test it out on a few popular knots and two of the top braided line brands. Now there will be no more debating about which lines and knots are the best... this machine reveals all!
Not all polarized fishing glasses are created equal... I know because I own a couple dozen pairs of fishing sunglasses. And in this episode, we break down the best sunglass brands, best color lenses, what to look for, and what to avoid. Enjoy!
In this episode, I break down how some of my visions (dreams) have been lining up eerily similar to pastor Dana's prophetic dreams. I'll also discuss why I believe we should all be saving and storing over the next year.
If you've ever missed a fish when fishing with an artificial lure, it might have been due to an underwater color shift (when a lure changes colors abruptly underwater). If you fish with artificial baits, this is a must-listen to episode.
In this episode, we test out a chumming trick that had us catching speckled trout (aka seatrout) almost every cast. It worked so well that both live bait and artificial lures were working. Best news is that you don't need a fancy boat do do this. If you want to have everyone on your boat coming home with a smile on their face, this is one of the best ways to catch tons of inshore saltwater fish!
I really struggled with this one... not only did this $150,000 COVID stimulus money feel like free money, I knew of numerous business owners who took the money to help grow their business. But at the end of the day, there was ONE thing that led me to turn it down...
Pairing the best spinning rod and reel can be tricky. In fact, most anglers don't do this correctly (which means they aren't maximizing what they purchased). If you fish with spinning gear then this is a must-listen episode. Enjoy!
In this episode, we head out on the flats with a livewell full of whitebait (little sardines) and walk you through the best fishing spots, how to chum up your spot, how to rig your live bait, and much much more.

During a tough time, you have two options. Option one is to hope and pray you get back to where you were before the bad times started. Option two is to take action to make sure you never get back to where you were (that you leapfrog ahead). In this episode, we discuss how to build a bridge when others are merely taking detours.
After reading the book, "Through The Fishes Eye," by Mark Sosin, I reached out to him to see if he'd come on the show to discuss everything he learned about gamefish behavior. As a hall of famer (in both the saltwater and freshwater) he had some amazing intel to share that can help all of us catch more fish. Enjoy!
Ever heard of an underwater smell track? Scientist and author Paul Johnson spent countless hours underwater studying which scents played a role in attracting (and detracting) fish. He called these scents "Smell Tracks" and has separated them into three different categories. Listen in as we share all three types of underwater scents. This could definitely be one of those game-changing fishing breakthroughs.
It seems as though countless Americans are running around unhappy, anxious, full of fear, and falsely believing that life is happening "to" them and not "for" them. Listen in as a breakdown the difference along with overcoming fear and breaking out of any rut.
There are a million different types of fishing hooks on the market these days. So many that the endless choices, hook sizes, gauges, and brands can confuse even the seasoned angler. Listen in as we discuss everything you need to know about picking the best fishing hook (tailored for inshore saltwater fishing).
The great fishing reel debate... baitcasting reels vs spinning reels. Each reel has specific pros and cons (and very clear times you should be fishing with one over the other). Find out in this week's live recording with the Salt Strong team.
What's the solution to all of the hatred, animosity, and hurt that going on in America right now? Well, I can tell you that the answer is not even close to what the media and rioters are screaming about... listen in to hear the real reason we're falling apart as a society (and how to fix it).
