Today's guests made the leap from a Team USA gold medal to full-time as a San Juan River guy,

dialing in size 26 midges, navigating 40 fish days and teaching anglers how to hook into 20-inch browns on 6x tippet.

By the end of this episode, you'll learn how to fish the sand wands, glassy tailouts,

why ant falls triggers some of the river's best dry fly action, and what it really takes

to catch fish all year long on one of America's most technical tailwaters.

This is the Wet Fly Swing podcast where I show you the best places to travel to for fly fishing,

how to find the best resources and tools to prepare for that big trip and what you can do to give back the fish species

we all love.

Drew Bone of Bone, fly fishing breaks down the river.

He knows best why presentation always beats pattern, how a confidence fly can change everything,

and what winning gold in Bosnia taught him about fishing the slow deep waters of the

San Juan. He's fished under the greatest pressure in the world championships and now brings that same

precision to every trip in northwest New Mexico. Here he is. You can find him at boneflyfishing.com.

How you doing, Drew?

Doing great. Thanks for having me on.

Yeah, thanks for coming on here.

And we're looking forward to this episode.

We have, you know, the San Juan is, you know, a famous river.

It's a river that I'm hoping to get to in the next year.

That's one of my big goals.

So I'm hoping that today we can talk a little about that.

Along with Team USA, have um some serious experience i think you were part of some of the big teams there
