yeah it's cool like hearing eric talk about that because like steelhead fishing is such like a

progression like trout fishing like i feel like you're getting you get better at it like you know

what bugs to pick out and like that but like for whatever reason steel at fishing you just

want to constantly make it harder and harder for yourself don't know why but like honestly like, honestly, like, you start out, like, with Eric nymphing for him. And, like, I caught some fish nymphing for him, too. Never used to feed. But, yeah. And then you're like, well, I want to try to get him on a swung fly. And then you start swinging flies for him. And then you're like, you get that tug. and you're like, wow, this is the best.

Welcome to In the Bucket, the podcast that explores the culture of spay fishing in the Pacific Northwest, a spectacular land of mountains and wild rivers where every cast has a story to tell.

I'm your host, Brian Niska.

Thank you for joining us.

Today I'm going to be speaking with pro-snowboarders, Curtis Seizik, Eric Jackson, and

return guest photographer Darcy Baca.

Well, these guys are well known throughout the snowboard industry.

They also happen to be

super passionate steelhead anglers. A few years back, Eric put together a superb movie here in

Skeena Country, blending snowboarding and steelhead fishing. It was called alignment. Darcy and

Curtis were a big part of this, so I'm stoked to have them all here today to talk about alignment

and anything else we're going to get into.

Welcome, folks. We've got a special show plan today. I'm joined by Curtis, Eric, and Darcy. I've been waiting a long time to get these three guys on the show with me at the same time. You guys may

recall Darcy's been on before. So he's actually our first repeat guest on In the Bucket. So, Curtis, welcome. Thank you for having

me. Stoke to be here. Yeah, Curtis Isick, live in Bend, Oregon, snowboarder, fly angler, among other things,

I guess, outfitter here in Oregon. Right on. Curtis, just for the people listening, how do they find your guide business online? I do most of it just through Instagram, Jetboat Fly Guides, or my Instagram, Curtis Isick. That's like how I get 90% of my business. But we also have a website to you that's under construction right now, Jetboatflyguides.com. Nice. Quick plug, I like it.

Already, right out of the gate.

Yeah, I like it.

He teed me up.
