The Appalachian Way

The Appalachian Way

Welcome to the Appalachian Way. Everyone has seen the stereotype around Appalachia. A bunch of uneducated red necks that drive four wheelers and shoot stuff. I can’t argue we don’t like our guns, but I can tell you there’s a lot more to our area than that. Join us as every week we dive into the culture, history and recreation opportunities in this unique piece of the country.

I love the whole Appalachian area. The greenery, abundance of wild game, outdoor activities, all of it. I moved away from there but that doesn't mean I don't miss it. One thing I never had the chance to do was catch trout in the Appalachian Mountains though. My guest, Arran, has gotten really good at it though. To top it off, he fishes Tenkara style!

Martin released his book "Switching Gears" and I wanted to have him on the show to talk about it. It was a lot of fun and the book is excellent.

When I get something in my mind, there's rarely any changing my mind. This is a family trait I can do nothing about. So when I saw a guy 3d printing his own lures, I knew it was something I had to do. Little did I know that I quickly got in over my head. Thankfully, there are people like Bill around that are willing to talk about, help and share the information they have gathered through trial and error.

Skip and Zack have learned how to catch catfish and an incredible rate. Last year they treated me to the most productive day of catfishing I've eve had. They were kind enough to stop by and discuss tactics, rigs and a whole lot more.

Nick is an interesting guy. He uses Tenkara Rods/flies to catch high alpine trout, has his own brand of fly, takes awesome high country hikes and is getting ready to take a 6 month trip on the PCT. So, yeah, I had to have him on the show.

Gavin and Adam had a dream. They wanted to do something related to fishing. Somehow they decided that gathering ocean plastics and turning them into fishing lures was where it's at! And we are so glad they did. They have huge goals and an amazing looking lure selection.

Patrick and Al have both been on the podcast and are avid anglers. Al has mostly fished for bass but recently has taken an interest in multi-species angling, including carp. Patrick has been a long time admirer of carp and I thought it would be a good idea to get these two together and have a discussion about one of the most under appreciated fish in the water.

Everyone has this vision in their mind of a mountain man. This rugged individual who can live damn near anywhere as long as he can catch some sort of wild game. The old man covered in bear furs and only comes to the rendezvous. Jeremy sat down with us to dispel some of those stereotypes and give us the real run down on Mountain Men.

Brian and Jon got together on Instagram and began a friendship centered around fishing. They quickly realized they had a lot in common and decided, to hell with it, lets start a fishing podcast. And just like that, The Working Class Fishing Podcast was born. They are breaking down barriers and giving people information as well as encouragement to get out there and wet a line.
