Summary

An old friend of mine, Pete Erickson, joins the podcast today. Pete and I met back when we were both fly fishing guides and even room mates in Jackson Hole. Pete has gone on to do some amazing things in the fly fishing industry. From winning the ESPN Outdoor Games two years after I did, to joining Fly Fishing Team USA, to designing fly rods, Pete has done it all. In this episode we reminisce on some old memories from Jackson Hole. We try to figure out what the magic recipe from that time and place to launch the careers of Pete, myself who both won the Great Outdoor Games, Carter Andrews, Lori Anne Murphy, Matson Rogers, Tom Montgomery, Paul Bruun, Jeff Currier, Jack Dennis, and so many others. We discuss euro nymphing techniques, and more.
