recap

In this episode Far Bank rep Alex Ramirez drops by our studio in Chico, Ca. to walk us through his experience as a fly fishing brand rep. Learn how he got started, a bit about the brands he reps and more on this episode of the show!

At the beginning of the show we mention the movie Highlander – arguably one of the greatest films ever made, ever. Here’s a link. 

Finally, sorry for the delay in posting this episode! We were at the International Fly Tackle Dealer’s Association (IFTD) last week and are playing catch-up. Expect to see A TON (11 episodes!) of new content dropping all next week that recap our experience at IFTD. 

KNOW BETTER, FISH BETTER!
