Today's guest has been leading the charge in digital mapping for trout anglers across the country.

Eric Johnson of Trout Routts, now part of the Onyx family, is back to share the latest updates on how the platform is helping anglers discover water, stay safe, and plan trips with confidence.

By the end of this episode, you'll hear how Trout Routes has integrated Onyx cartography

to highlight public access more clearly, why live stream gauges and trout lake data

are changing the way anglers prepare for trips, and how new features like offline mats,

custom markers, and Android iOS upgrades make it easier than ever to scout from home

and navigate in the field. This is the

Web 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 to the fish species
