    Great Guys!
    I stumbled on AOA a few weeks ago and now find myself catching up on all of their previous episodes. I really enjoy the fact that they don’t take themselves too seriously, and at the same time share knowledge that is transferable to most parts of North America.

    Great show
    Second Sunday of the year and I just realized there wasn’t a new Average Ontario Anglers episode
  • advwannabe
    Awesome fishing content!
    Love the show! Great content. I live in north western Montana. Near the divide. We have lots of lakes with similar fishing conditions and species. Love all the great info, especially pike strategies. Keep it coming!!!

    Great podcast!
    I started wanting to learn how to fish two months ago, when my Dad passed away. He and I would fish when life and schedules would allow. He and I were very close and with life becoming even more hectic with kids and work, etc, I decided it was time to have a hobby. I feel very close to my Dad when I’m out shore fishing in reservoirs where I live (an hour north of NYC). I have a 1 hour commute each way to work and your podcasts have energized me to try this hobby. I haven’t yet been dismayed when I’ve lost a lure (like on my first cast yesterday) and I became a gold member in Patreon for your show because you two make me feel like I could be successful at fishing and I appreciate that greatly. I can’t wait for the day I can share a photo of my first catch, but until then, I will continue to enjoy your podcast. It’s a great show full of details and humor. Thank you!

    Rename the Show to AWESOME Ontario Anglers
    The title says it all. As an avid angler for years I have listened to many different fishing pods, most of which suffer from inconsistent publishing, poor audio, bloated content from advertising and empty banter. Not these guys. Every episode is well-thought out, moves at pace, has great audio, provides applicable fishing guidance to anglers of all skill levels and most of all it’s FUN. The hosts are funny and knowledgeable while remaining humble and relatable. Listening to them feels like you’re having a beer with friends you’ve known for years after a long day out on the water (but without the swearing) Their advice has definitely put more fish in my boat while passing many miles on my commute. Subscribe to these guys, you’ll be glad you did. 100%

    Loons, snapping turtles, and ball nippers! Oh my! Interesting fact: these guys rock! The podcast is like a 7’3” medium heavy pole, you gotta have it! Quote for the review “just listen to AOA “

    Amazing podcast
    Honestly I’m always looking forward to listening to this podcast I’ve tried hearing other fishing podcasts and they just don’t bring the same amount off enjoyment as you guys thank you for the podcast!

    Good Clean Fun
    Great podcast. Guys are super relatable and have great topics and personal experiences. Clean and I’m happy to listen with my 2 boys and let them hear these great perspectives and learn about fishing without any worries.

    Wholesome Fishing Talk
    This podcast is a couple of regular guys who are polite, informative and interesting. Definitely a decent listen with shows at about the right length to keep you interested. So far they’ve managed to not go on tangents. I’d recommend this show for sure!
