New Episode Drop: Back in July, Conner and I wrapped up an incredible weekend exploring the Niangua River, thanks to our good friend and host, Austin Hayes of Finding Fish Guide Co.

But we weren’t quite ready to call it a weekend! On our way home, we decided to make one last stop, explore some new water, and chase a few Ozark smallmouth. Sometimes the best adventures happen when you take an unexpected detour! -Paul

He’s my youngest—and yes, he’s ornery, wild, and loud. But there’s rarely a day that goes by when he doesn’t ask Mom and Dad, “Do you need anything?”

He keeps us on our toes, makes us laugh, and reminds us that every day is an adventure. Wouldn’t have him any other way.

Whether you catch 0 or 782 😂, you’ll always find a little life between the banks. There’s just something about being on the water—the sounds, the scenery, and the escape. Catching fish is just a bonus.

Now, I’m just hoping Mother Nature blesses us with some much-needed rain this week. At this point, I’ll take anything she’s willing to give us!

Make sure you check out our latest video. Here’s a little clip from the adventure. 🎣 GET LOST. Find life between the banks.

!!New Episode Alert!! Had fun with this one. Special shout out to John Wagner who is a club member with Heart of America Fly Fishers. John generously shared some of his fly patterns with me. Having the willingness to share and support others is the greatest thing any of us can do.

John has a true giving heart, and I’m grateful for his friendship.
