On today’s Fish Schtick, Mikey Weir. Fans of the Fly Fishing Film Tour know Mikey as the man behind Burl Productions, who brought Soulfish to that collection of short films. Chum readers have seen him with preposterously large Slab of the Month entries, he’s got a jaw dropping Sierra rainbow buck in the current competition. If you subscribe to Fly Fisherman magazine, you’ll see him on the front cover of the latest issue, and he’s a Patagonia Fly Fishing Ambassador.

Dylan Tomine (Toe-mean-a) is a freelance steelhead bum, writer, sink-tip addict, Patagonia fly fishing ambassador and what he calls a ‘reluctant’ conservationist.” You can catch some of Dylan’s latest stories in recent issues of the Drake, and his report the State of Steelhead is arguably one of the most compelling calls to action for steelhead conservative ever written. He has some exciting new projects that he’s involved in that we’ll discuss during the show and if we’re lucky a fish story or two. Dylan lives in Washington state, where he is pioneering the use of Spey rods for bluegills with his daughter Skyla and son Westin.
