For one week each June, nearly two hundred crews prepare their state-of-the-art multimillion-dollar boats and head to the Gulf Stream in pursuit of the prize of the Atlantic—a prize-winning blue marlin. Thousands of spectators flock to the Big Rock Landing hoping to catch a glimpse of history at the weigh-ins, while out in the blue anglers engage in lengthy battles with marlin in the range of five to nine hundred pounds. It’s the most electrifying spot on the Eastern Seaboard during that six-day period when life revolves around the epic annual maritime hunt known simply as The Big Rock.  This year, Michael Jordan entered the 62nd installment of the annual tournament and made an immediate impact.  Jordan and the crew on his boat, Catch 23, reeled in a 442-pound blue marlin Tuesday, the second day of the tournament in the basketball great's home state of North Carolina.Author Bethany Bradsher delivers all the action—behind the scenes, out at sea, and dockside—in page-turning style in The Big Rock.  Follow Bethany on social media @bethanybradsher  Follow the Big Rock Tournament at https://www.thebigrock.com/tournament/ or on IG @bigrocktournamentMichael Jordan entered the 62nd installment of the annual tournament and made an immediate impact.Jordan and the crew on his boat, Catch 23, reeled in a 442-pound blue marlin Tuesday, the second day of the tournament in the basketball great's home state of North Carolina.https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/29289073/michael-jordan-crew-enter-big-rock-tournament-reel-monster-442-pound-marlinThis episode is brought to you by these great sponsors:Barracuda Tackle - Makers of the best cast nets on the market BarracudaTackle.comGet 30% off any order on Hukgear.com by using the code SE30 at checkoutGet 20% off + free shipping on products from Manscaped.com by using the code TRPKettle and Fire make Bone Broth that is Whole 30, Paleo and Keto Friendly.  It is made from Grass-fed and grass-finished beef bones, organic pasture-raised chicken and is Non-GMO.  It contains all the essential nutrients your body needs to thrive like collagen, protein, and amino acids.  Cooking your own is messy and time-consuming.  Go to Kettleandfire.com/waypoint to get yours delivered straight to your door.This episode has been brought to you by Waypoint TV. Waypoint is the ultimate outdoor network featuring streaming of full-length fishing and hunting television shows, short films and instructional content, a social media network, Podcast Network.

Flyfishing for tarpon is definitely one of the most exciting ways to fish for this incredible gamefish.  It takes a coordinated effort between angler and guide and many things can go wrong in the process of presenting the fly, stripping, setting the hook and landing the fish.  Often when you set the hook you have 30-50 feet of line at your feet.  Getting that line onto the reel is a major obstacle in landing tarpon.  I go over some tips on things to concentrate on that will have you setting the hook and clearing the line like a pro.Barracuda Tackle - Makers of the best cast nets on the market BarracudaTackle.comGet 30% off any order on Hukgear.com by using the code SE30 at checkoutGet 20% off + free shipping on products from Manscaped.com by using the code TRP at checkoutKettle and Fire make Bone Broth that is Whole 30, Paleo and Keto Friendly.  It is made from Grass-fed and grass-finished beef bones, organic pasture-raised chicken and is Non-GMO.  It contains all the essential nutrients your body needs to thrive like collagen, protein, and amino acids.  Cooking your own is messy and time-consuming.  Go to Kettleandfire.com/waypoint to get yours delivered straight to your door.This episode has been brought to you by Waypoint TV. Waypoint is the ultimate outdoor network featuring streaming of full-length fishing and hunting television shows, short films and instructional content, a social media network, Podcast Network.

The Multistage Fitness Test, also called the Beep Test or even the Bleep Test in some places, is a simple test of fitness.  All you need is 20 m of open space and the audio linked in this article and you can test your fitness. You simply follow the cues on the audio and at the sound of the beep, run 20 m to the other line.  Stop there and wait for the next beep which sends you to the other line.  You will continue doing this as the time between the beeps decreases.  When you can no longer keep up the test is over.A good score is over 9 for a regular individual, college athletes look for a 13 and pros are getting 17 or 18 rounds.  The importance of this test is not necessarily just to see how well you do running back and forth, rather it is a benchmark that gauges general fitness.  It is measurable, repeatable and can be done anywhere.  Benchmarks like this one help us to stay on track and continue to stay motivated because you see improvement.  Seeing improvement, even if it is just 1 second, 1 pound or 1 round gives each athlete feedback that what they are doing is working and motivation to continue for higher goals.  A Fitness journey is a microcosm of life.  Finding measurable and repeatable ways to test yourself outside of the gym also generates motivation and momentum towards goals.  We are trying to get 1% better each day and benchmarks allow us to see that progress taking place.Here is a link to the Beep Test to test yourself, CLICK HEREThis episode is brought to you by these great sponsors:Barracuda Tackle - Makers of the best cast nets on the market BarracudaTackle.comGet 30% off any order on Hukgear.com by using the code SE30 at checkoutGet 20% off + free shipping on products from Manscaped.com by using the code TRP at checkoutKettle and Fire make Bone Broth that is Whole 30, Paleo and Keto Friendly.  It is made from Grass-fed and grass-finished beef bones, organic pasture-raised chicken and is Non-GMO.  It contains all the essential nutrients your body needs to thrive like collagen, protein, and amino acids.  Cooking your own is messy and time-consuming.  Go to Kettleandfire.com/waypoint to get yours delivered straight to your door.This episode has been brought to you by Waypoint TV. Waypoint is the ultimate outdoor network featuring streaming of full-length fishing and hunting television shows, short films and instructional content, a social media network, Podcast Network.

As it gets further into summer and it gets hotter, I look for ways that I might be able to get workouts in cooler times of the day.  Another way to get a reprieve from the heat is to incorporate water into your workouts.Swimming is one of the best exercises that a human being can do but not everyone has a pool big enough to swim laps.  Some people find lap swimming really boring as well.  There are other ways to get a solid, legit workout in a pool.  We have discussed XPT Training before on the podcast.  This is Laird Hamilton and Gabby Reece’ training program that basically mimics their lifestyle.  They use dumbbells in a pool to do some great exercises that really are effective for strength, explosiveness and athletic performance.  Another workout that I have tried recently is Bas Rutten’s Insane Pool workout.  This can be done in a very small pool and will definitely give you a great workout.Watch this episode on Waypoint- CLICK HERE.Links to videos seen in this video with all credit going to the owner of the videosBas Rutten Insane Pool Workout - https://youtu.be/qgvklHZSsmEXPT: https://youtu.be/DrFb1jFNn6wSeahorse : https://youtu.be/zejSXg7uyvYThis episode is brought to you by these great sponsors:Barracuda Tackle - Makers of the best cast nets on the market BarracudaTackle.comGet 30% off any order on Hukgear.com by using the code SE30 at checkoutGet 20% off + free shipping on products from Manscaped.com by using the code TRP at checkoutKettle and Fire make Bone Broth that is Whole 30, Paleo and Keto Friendly.  It is made from Grass-fed and grass-finished beef bones, organic pasture-raised chicken and is Non-GMO.  It contains all the essential nutrients your body needs to thrive like collagen, protein, and amino acids.  Cooking your own is messy and time-consuming.  Go to Kettleandfire.com/waypoint to get yours delivered straight to your door.This episode has been brought to you by Waypoint TV. Waypoint is the ultimate outdoor network featuring streaming of full-length fishing and hunting television shows, short films and instructional content, a social media network, Podcast Network.

Ross Enamait is a professional boxing trainer who has also written several books.  Never Gymless and Infinite Intensity are, in my opinion, 2 of the best books on physical training ever written.  Ross has an old school simplistic approach that is incredibly effective.  He advocates a “Low Tech, High Effect” protocol that uses common implements, classic movements, and often homemade equipment.  Fitness does not have to be complicated or expensive.  Find Ross on all social media platforms.  His Instagram is @rosstraining and he is active on Facebook and Twitter.Watch this video on Waypoint by CLICKING HERE.You can learn more about Sharktec by visiting their website.This episode is brought to you by these great sponsors:Barracuda Tackle - Makers of the best cast nets on the market BarracudaTackle.comGet 30% off any order on Hukgear.com by using the code SE30 at checkoutGet 20% off + free shipping on products from Manscaped.com by using the code TRPKettle and Fire make Bone Broth that is Whole 30, Paleo and Keto Friendly.  It is made from Grass-fed and grass-finished beef bones, organic pasture-raised chicken and is Non-GMO.  It contains all the essential nutrients your body needs to thrive like collagen, protein, and amino acids.  Cooking your own is messy and time-consuming.  Go to Kettleandfire.com/waypoint to get yours delivered straight to your door.This episode has been brought to you by Waypoint TV. Waypoint is the ultimate outdoor network featuring streaming of full-length fishing and hunting television shows, short films and instructional content, a social media network, Podcast Network.
