Welcome to the Salt Strong Podcast, disrupting fishing entertainment as you know it, prepare

to laugh, prepare to get to know fishing legends in a whole new and unfiltered way.

And on occasion, you might even learn a thing or two about fishing.

Here's your host, Joe Simons, like diamonds.

Hello and welcome to the Salt Strong live stream and podcast.

My name is Rich Natoli.

I'm the regular host of this show and my co-host Ed Gobo is not here this week.

I think he's had a baseball game with his son.

So family comes first.

He's there.

But we've got on tonight one of the salt strong coaches.

We have Matt linear coming on and he is going to be talking with me about tournament preparation.

It is the season for fishing tournaments and Matt has had some really great success along

his tournament trail.

So far the seasons we're going to bring Matt on.

And before I do that, I do as always want to go through and thank the people that are

in the chat right now and just so that you guys know I hear it every once in a while.

Hey, you missed me.

Well, there's about a five second delay between chat and me live.

So it's about five seconds behind.

So if it's at the end there and you get it in late, I may miss you.

But thank you, everyone who's joining us live.
