Tom Rowland Podcast

I sat down with Dr. Max Baumgardner who is an ER doctor who has seen lots of injuries that are very common among fisherman. I asked him what he would carry in a First Aid Kit and he actually brought it to the studio. Listen as Max dumps out his first aid kit and goest through it with me.

Many of you have heard me talk about the Deck Of Cards workout. And though I really enjoy this workout I've run into the issue of the cards getting blown around recently. So a similar workout is the Dice Game, just get a couple of blank wooden dice and start labeling them with exercises and reps.

Today's show is with one of my old friends; Carter and I both grew up in Tennessee and we both started guiding in Jackson Hole, Wyoming as trout guides. From there we intersected in tournaments both against and with each other, in tournaments such as the ESPN Great Outdoor Games, the Madfin Series and more. Now our lives are crossing again in the Television world. Carter is the host of "The Obsession Of Carter Andrews" which inspired "Legendary Catch" by National Geographic.

I had Hunter Leavine from Captains Collective sit down with me to go over a question that I got on social media: "How can I best book a guide for a fishing trip?" Hunter and I go over areas where you can find a guide and ways to find the most qualified guides. The best place to start is referrals and reviews.

Listen as I discuss the basics of building a home gym. I received a question and share personal stories about my own experience with this process. You'll learn about what you need and what you don't need to have a functioning gym at home.

A current professional in bass fishing, though at one point Mike considered giving it all up. Having filled out the paperwork to go teach for Rowan University - Mike considered one last fishing tournament to "go out with a bang" from his fishing career. This "last tournament" ended up being a turning point for Mike's life.

I was asked recently on how to chum for sharks, and they are a really good fish to chum for so I'm happy tips in the podcast today. Often sharks can save your day if you've had a bad day on the water, shark fishing can be easy but it also might not be as easy as you'd hope. Let me know what you think of the podcast today and email me if you have any questions you'd like answered on the podcast (podcast@saltwaterexperience.com).

Many people have asked me how they should go about getting back in shape.  In my group, I have a standard answer.  Consistency, Accuracy, and Intensity.  The recipe is simple (I didn’t say easy).  Develop consistency in when you exercise, then work on the accuracy of the movements and only when those two are solid, ramp up the intensity.

I've always been a fan of Blair, "The Mogan Man" who came out with the Addictive Fishing TV Show. He also has done a lot to incorporate the community into what he does, but now he is taking action to help the environment. Blair is using a natural filter, the clam, to help improve water quality. This was a fantastic podcast and I hope you enjoy learning more about Blair, The Mogan Man.

Only the very best Captains can anchor exactly where they want to every single time. Wind, tides and current present many challenges that swing the boat off the intended spot and cause serious frustration for the recreational angler.  I answer a question from a listener on how they might improve their anchoring skills and hit the right spot more often.
