Episode 136 Evan Giles Feb 19, 2024

Show notes

Another episode with a guy from the Northeast? Who could have seen that one coming? Evan Giles of Massachusetts joins us, and we delve into all things NE swimbaiting, mostly covering the same topics as me and other NE guys, but we get to hear Evan's unique perspective. He even got into glide baits this past season, which opened up a whole other rabbit hole for discussion since it seems somewhat uncommon in the NE.

We didn't get super deep into stories or experiences, so expect a pt2 for this episode soon. Also check out Bert's clothing brand Province Clothing Co.
