Anchored Podcast:

When picturing the perfect Trout Bum story, Justin Crump comes to mind. Justin fell in love with fishing at an early age, before dedicating his entire life to the pursuit. In this episode of Anchored, Justin and April discuss how his willingness to go with the flow introduced him to a lifetime of adventure, a successful career, and even the love of his life.

They discuss the highs and lows of working in the fishing industry, his company Frigate Travel, chasing down rooster fish in Mexico, setting expectations, the importance of a fly’s profile, the future of guiding and more.
