Nice podcast. You’re doing a good work. I like the guide interviews.

These Pod Cast, information, and focus on conservation has re- kindled my love for Big Trout. The presentation is well done in bringing the truth about our resources. Carry On Chris and others. KMohr Daphne, Al

Great stories and information!

Really appreciate all the helpful information!!

Really appreciate this podcast and the info shared. Also enjoy Chris’ appreciation for his family and especially his Pops. If you are any kind of trout fisherman give it a listen.

Really enjoyed the interview with Mike Blackwood. He certainly reinforces the importance of good conservation practices for a healthy fishery. I’ve been fishing coastal NC for over fifty years and am greatly saddened that our state still allows the damaging practices of inshore shrimp trawling AND inshore large mesh gills. I have children and grandchildren and unless things change here there will be nothing left for them. Very very sad that greed is being allowed to rule over a healthy ecosystem and fishery. God bless you and thank you for the fine podcast.

I gave it 2 stars for content and information. My main complaint is it’s politically driven toward catch and release and trying to change the “culture” of eating fish. I see eating fish as much more important than just culture… it’s what keeps people coming to our bays and keeping them protected. The general public couldn’t care less if we like to hook fish, drag them to us, and then release them. They also don’t care about trophy fish or PB. Corporations and nefarious actors will use that to lessen the importance of fishing. PETA folks will do the same. Eating fish and having clean water are essential to do this. Destroying peoples food source is much different than taking away a hobby, it’s food. I’m all for C&R, however I see where this is going. They have good information and I believe are generally interested in speckled trout, however their perspective is skewed. We should encourage people to eat fish, go fishing when they need fish, and discourage fishing for vanity, likes, trophy, money, and such.

Chris, listening to your podcasts, is the next best thing to actually catching trophy trout!

Thanks Captain Chris! You’ve really created something special and unique. I’m looking forward to spending more time targeting big trout, and this gets me really fired up! Keep up the incredible content!

Thank you for bringing this information to us all, and helping us all grow as anglers. My son and I listen together when traveling to Grand Isle to go fishing at my dad’s camp, and it gives us much to talk about. I also listen when traveling for work, and these episodes really get me thinking about all the nuances of fishing. I can’t say enough about how you are changing the hearts and minds of the fishing men/women across the gulf south, especially LA. If there’s one thing you could do that would put this podcast over the top, it would be to list all the names/colors of the lures, and equipment used by each angler in each episode. I say this because it’s impossible for me to take notes while driving and rarely do I have the time to listen again. Just a thought. Thanks again to you and all of your guests. All the best Michael @lsufishguy

Such a great podcast with some hard hitting legendary anglers. A lot of us average anglers have maybe read stories of some of these anglers and now being able to listen to their stories and to be able to grab bits and pieces of info not only for entertainment but to also make us better anglers goes a long way. Thank you Chris for bringing this type of education and entertainment to us average anglers and for all you do for the trophy trout population.

New to the speckled trout game in VA and a couple of hours from the water. Love the personalities and their knowledge. Look forward to every podcast!

This is the best fishing podcast there is, for those that love trophy trout. Love listening to all the legends!

For those of us that are nuts for big specs this is the perfect podcast. So much incredible information and the stories from trout legends across the country are so great to listen to. Thanks Chris for doing this!

Speckled truth is easily my favorite fishing podcast but the feb20th episode.....holy cow. The most informative and educational podcast yet!! From catching to handling to management to trout behavior/physiology just MEGA!! Thanks Chris Bush and all the team for this one especially

I enjoy listening to people passionate about trout with a lot of experience catching big fish, but I wish the interviewer would tease out more interesting details from his guests. Lots of rambling discussions about conservation and philosophies, but discussions about the science of conservation or behaviors of gator sea trout are few and far between.

I’m a podcast junky, as well as a fishing foot And this podcast is my new number 1, I highly recommend it whether you are an avid fisherman or new to the trophy trout scene

Very informative on fishing for trout. Love hearing the advice and tactics from the pros and and people who’ve been here chasing fish wayyyyyyyy longer than me.

Capt Chris and friends are nothing but class acts with the invaluable information that they are sharing whether you are a seasoned pro or new in the game (like me). Their interviews are very enjoyable and entertaining. Thanks guys!!

If you love fishing for big speckled trout, or just talking about fishing for them and like to listen to someone else’s who is passionate about the same. This is your podcast. Great message, great info, and awesome mission they are on.

Great Podcast lots of good information.

Enjoyed every minute of this podcast. Great content and I enjoy listening to Chris and his guests.

Excellent presentation of the rights of passage fishing brings. Going through my family’s photos after my mother passed gave me memories from my first fishing experience with my father and grandfather I had forgotten. My uncle passed fishing along to us also. My son and I have gone through the ritual and it is much more than what goes on the stringer. He shared your podcast, so the circle is unbroken.

Always something to learn great tips on everything from lures and line to technique and how to approach an area. With conservation always in the forefront. And awesome stories from some of the best anglers around.

This Podcast that Speckled Truth has put together is amazing! The interviews and story’s you here from the Speckled Truths guests is top notch! You can hear the passion for Speckled Trout in every episode of the podcasts and it just makes you keep on coming back for more. If you love Gator Speckled Trout fishing this is the Podcast For You!

Best podcast I’ve ever listen too. I keep small trout to eat some but am a firm believer in empty stringers and letting the big ones go. I hope this podcast inspires people to release more trout whether it be a 15 incher or a 30 incher like it did me. Look forward to hearing more

I've been following The Speckled Truth for quite a while now and have spoken to Chris personally on several occasions. What you hear is what you get with him. He's truly passionate about Specks and the fishing industry, also if you can't tell from his first episode, a true family man. I look forward to seeing where this journey brings him and The Speckled Truth. Keep up the great work bro!!

I don’t even live on the gulf coast and this is so informative and inspirational!! Keep up the great work!

If you love fishing for Trophy Speckled Trout or just fishing in general. Then the Speckled truth podcast is for you. This is the best fishing podcast on the entire gulf coast hands down.
