Thanks for the ongoing support of the show, we couldn't keep doing it without ya'll.

Episode 75 marks the four year point in our journey to keep you informed of what’s happening in fly fishing from our unique perspective here in the double wide trailer. We’ve certainly had a good time getting here around the Old Oak Table and we hope you have too. The episode kicks off with a brief reprise of Larry’s trip back home to Tennessee to host the Huge Fly Fisherman at the homestead, chase smallies in Seusville and hang out at The Fly Box. If you haven’t watched the episode on Youtube, go check it out. Our discussions range from the current status of the manatee feeding that is being done in the IRL, to shoreline restoration efforts by researchers and the work that MDC does to support their studies.

We announce the next season of the Tailer Park Casting Championships, stay tuned for more details soon!

Episode 74 is the first one of 2022 and we’re all happy to be back. Carl is busy sniffing resin, so he’s taking a break to recharge his battery. We talk Christmas gifts and holiday cheer to get the podcast started. Ben & Larry spent the better part of a week in East Tennessee and they share some of the highlights and lowlights. We got down to details reviewing the newest Fly Shop in the Holston Valley, The Fly Box. Jameison also made it up to God’s country to spend time with friends and family nearby Dollywood. We recap our awesome camping trip before the holidays started and talk plans for more in the near future. Skiff talk gets us caught up with the progress on Project 69er. Throughout the show, All Hands Vodka Sodas were enjoyed by the crew. Thanks to them for the refreshing and tasty cocktails!! The usual rabbit holes were explored to some degree as we wound our way through the show notes. Thanks to all who take the time to support us by buying Tailer Trash merchandise and Review us on Apple and Spotify.

Carl, Ben, Jamieson & Larry gather around the Old Oak Table one final time to close out 2021. A report of a fish-less trip and lost items reveals a new sandwich shop and source for skiff subs and hotdogs smothered with homemade chili. The group shares holiday wishes and gift giving ideas. Our final Mail Barge of 2021 is out of this world. Literally. Check it out on our YouTube Channel to get the entire picture. We rounded out the evening discussing the recent revelations of stocking redfish in the IRL, hardly the solution to poor water quality and a collapsing ecosystem. To make matters worse, manatee poop production is being ramped up through artificially creating a feeding area around the power plants in PSJ. Plans for future trips and activities rounds out our evening before we sign off. Merry Christmas to All & to All a Goodnight!

Ben, Marc & Larry discuss over rated species that we target on fly. Listener questions are answered. Ben lets us all in on the big secret. Marc meets younger Ben and he's speechless. Join us around the Old Oak Table for a couple of hours and laugh along.

Preview of the Thingy Before The Dinghy and Dinghy Derby & Poker Run to benefit Marine discovery, including introducing your opportunity to bid on fishing trips with Ben from The Huge Fly Fisherman or Wilds from Drake Boatworks.

We hope to see you in person on October 1 & 2, 2021 for Dinghy Derby Weekend shenanigans, its going to be a good time, for a great cause!

After a bit of a Carlrona induced break, we gather around the Old Oak Table to welcome Ms. Crystal Murray to the Tailer Park. If you're a listener since the After Dark days, she needs no introduction. We talk about her career and get insight from the scientific community perspective on resource management.

Do yourself a favor and check out their new Chris Morejohn designed offering. Larry tries to ascend to the rank of influencer with a PSA PSA. We all preview the upcoming Dinghy Derby & Poker Run Weekend that also includes the Thingy Before the Dinghy at Marine Discovery Center. The raffle is going to be HUGE. Check out all of the sponsors on our website.

Immediately following the second stop of the Tailer Park Casting Championships, we gather around the Old Oak Table to review the action. A brief discussion of awards given at ICAST - an industry practice of creating faux praise for their own staff or ambassadors. We get skiffy and break down a few things going on in the boat building space. Interspersed is the wandering and nonsensical topics you would expect to hear in the Tailer Park.

Jamieson joins us around the Old Oak Table as we recount the good times that were had at the Tailer Park Casting Championships’ first stop. Marc is back and he has a story to tell about his trip to Monfuckintana to float the Smith River. We’re unsure of how well you may like Marc’s storytelling, it put Ben to sleep… We unwrap an amazingly well thought out delivery from the Mail Barge. We all review a great skiff build video Larry found on the old YouTube. Check it out on the DIY Waterworld Channel. A look forward to the Dinghy Derby and a call for Dusty to Crusty gear for fundraising efforts at the Thingy Before The Dinghy rounds out the show.

We’ve been scattered about for the past month, yet here we go again. A little fishy talk, some skiff updates and our usual wandering in search of the meaning of life. Check out The Tailer Park Casting Championships and 3rd Annual Dinghy Derby pages for more event information. If you’re ready to support boots on the ground education and conservation in Mosquito Lagoon by donating to the raffle being held at The Thingy Before the Dinghy, please contact us.

While Marc is out west on a float trip, we decided to get together for dinner and a podcast. We wander through a myriad of topics, some of which actually relate to fly fishing. Episode 64 had a live studio audience of one. If you listen closely, you'll hear snoring in the background. Yeah, its that good!

Most of Episode 63 is our responses to the questions and topics you wanted to hear us talk about. Thanks for engaging on the Instagram post, it made for a fun and informative time around the Old Oak Table. We'll do it again soon. The episode cover photo for Episode 63 is a steel sculpture of a bass created by Jason Bowman at OGRE Outdoors in Brevard, NC. We have four sculptures in total that are being installed in the Tailer Park "art museum". Look for information coming out soon on how you can get one for your home or office and help fund Mosquito Lagoon conservation efforts at Marine Discovery Center. Listen closely to our announcement of the dates for the 2021 Dinghy Derby & Poker Run. We're planning a two day event that will start Friday evening with The Thinghy Before The Dinghy. We also preview the newest social event opportunity with the crew from Tailer Trash Fly Fishing - The Tailer Park Casting Championship. Subscribe to our email list to get updated on these events and more on TailerTrash.com

Episode 62 opens with a robust discussion of the current state of marketing and use of social media in the fly fishing space. We welcome Ben Sittig for a cameo appearance on the show to find out what he’s been up to and has planned for the future. The Mail Barge arrives loaded with vinyl stickers, flies and beer. The show winds down with reports from afield and updates on future events that are being planned. Leaving a rating and review is always appreciated!

Larry Littrell & Michael Allen sit down at the Old Oak Table over a few drinks and discuss how his life changed after seeing "A River Runs Through It" and the resulting journey that lead him around the country and ultimately to Key West. Mike shares his passion, fly fishing for permit, how he became a tournament angler and worked his way to the top, winning the 2009 March Merkin with guide Capt. Will Benson. His journey is unlike any you've heard before. Throw out any preconceived notions of a Trustafarian, living it up on Daddy's money; this is a story of sacrifice, a years long struggle and hard work to realize a dream. Thanks for joining us.

Episode 61 finds the Tailer Park crew a little light, but we have a guest that has traveled over 3,000 miles visiting, so we fired up the Traeger had some tasty wood fired treats for dinner and leaned into it. Our good buddy, Jimmy is back in Florida for a couple of days from Bethel / Ketchikan where he alternates landing on the ground and water depending upon what time of the month he’s flying. Jimmy shares a little insight into what it takes to make the leap of faith that took him out to the frontier to live and work full time, what life is like flying in and out of remote villages and his future plans. Ben shares details of his recent exploratory trip to a mysterious bass pond / lake / retention pond where he put his latest “Dusty to Crusty” fly rod set-up to work. Larry tells yet another story of not catching fish while on the skiff, his specialty. A Mail Barge delivery arrives from afar in a recycled MRE box. When opened, there is some genuine excitement that follows! Who knows what else gets kicked around, rum was being poured and lies were told. Stay Trashy

Its Valentines Day so the cast of Tailer Trash Fly Fishing got together to enjoy a romantic lunch fresh off the Traeger before sharing some of their latest misadventures in fly fishing with you. Get the details of Ben & Marc's trip to Troutland, including the best burger in the south and a case of failure to keep it between the ditches. On the salty side of things, both Larry and Carl have lies to tell from recent forays into the backcountry of Mosquito Lagoon. Hear our review of the latest marketing piece on summer fishing travel to Mosquito Lagoon. Pro Tip: Pristine and Untouched should not be in the description. The Mail Barge really delivers big on its stop through the Tailer Park.

Grab yourself a chair, a cold beer and relax at the Old Oak Table with Larry Littrell as he chats with YouTube's Huge Fly Fisherman, Ben Sitteg. During this visit to the Tailer Park, Ben shares the details of his background and the origins of his online personality.

2021 is here and we survived to tell the tale. Tailer Trash Fly Fishing resumed its tradition of storytelling and unedited reporting on the latest and often not so greatest underbelly of fly fishing culture and entertainment. Joining us around the Old Oak Table in the Tailer Park was none other than Ted McGregor (@tedmcgreezy / @camp.mcgregor) of “Do You Even Double Haul, Bro?” fame. Ben Pickett (@el_mucho_pescado) gets us started with his wrap-up of 2020. Ted and Marc Ziegler (@mziegler54) ease us into the New Year with a couple of stories of their most recent trips on Mosquito Lagoon. We rewind it back to 2020 for a moment to talk about proper fish handling and the art of keeping them wet with Ted and Larry Littrell (@saltbum) before we turn it loose and the chat takes on its normal ebb and flow across a range of topics. Ted updates us on a couple of the recent @anchored_outdoors Masters Classes he’s completed / started on Spey Casting and Bamboo Rod Building, If you haven’t signed up for a membership yet, you should! During our most recent visit from the Mail Barge, we received a Lid Rig - Magnetic Nipper System (@lidrig) to check out. Everyone at the Old Oak Table had the opportunity to examine it and opine on what their initial thoughts were on its design and function. If you haven’t yet seen a Lid Rig (www.lidrig.com), check them out! Carl Granger (@so_bursted) and Larry share a bit about the low budget restoration of the 1986 Hobie Power Skiff that just started calling the Space Coast home. As always, there’s plenty of other nonsense buried throughout the episode, we hope it challenges your thoughts or at minimum gets a laugh or two. For now, Stay Trashy or Stay Huge – It’s your choice. Don’t forget to check the T2F2 web store on occasion, we’re adding new merch for 2021.

Episode 58 is the result of a rare mid-week gathering around the Old Oak Table in the Tailer Park to catch-up with Andrew. The show includes a Meth Lab visit debrief, our takes on the importance of storytelling, recollections of time spent together on the water and much more. Thanks to everyone who hung with us through the wild year we're all ready to have in the rearview mirror, 2020.

Fresh off of a great Friendsgiving and Thanksgiving holiday, the Tailer Trash Fly Fishing crew gather around the Old Oak Table yet again to dispense more of their opinions on anything from fly fishing to Christmas shopping. One segment you'll not want to miss was inspired by Casting Across. More belly aching about the current state of the imperiled estuary known as Mosquito Lagoon. It sucks, tell your friends. Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to visit our website and purchase Tailer Trash inspired shirts, hats & gear.

We start the show with a call to action in hopes of preserving and protecting a dying American road trip pastime. We hope you'll join us in the effort. We wrap up the Dinghy Derby & Poker Run - An event that has left us with nothing but admiration for our listeners and supporters who made it possible to continue supporting the critical work being done by Marine Discovery Center on behalf of Mosquito Lagoon and Indian River Lagoon restoration and community education. We close the loop on the Box Challenge we first talked about nearly a year ago. While we recognize our role in the fly fishing realm isn't that of influencers, we hope to share our personal experiences with gear in a way that you'll learn something about the differences in marketing and reality so you can apply the lessons we've learned in a way that helps you avoid our same mistakes. Buyer beware! Did you know our podcast was featured on a recent cover of the online mullet wrapper, Southern Culture on the Fly? We tell you all about it, like only assholes can! We wrap up with another awesome visit from the Mail Barge.

A lot is going on, so we dive straight into the biggest news story of the day, the pending election. We don’t have a suggestion for you on who you vote for, that’s your choice. We do, however have some thoughts on elements within fly fishing and companies in the industry who are using the election to divide us as anglers. We think it sucks. Carl catches us up on the progress being made on the skiff build with Jamieson. It leads to a good deal of skiff talk. Andrew joins us for a segment to help tell the story of Peacocking with Ben in South Florida. He also reveals the discovery of a cove filled with tailing carp in Middle Tennessee. Ted joins us to talk logistics, it’s what he does. He shares how his first summer in the Gaspe` wrapped up at Camp McGregor and includes his experience with the Anchored Outdoors’ April Vokey master class on spey casting. If you are considering signing up, which we recommend, please consider using the link on our website. (We get a little beer money if you do!) The big topic with Ted is of course the 2020 Dinghy Derby & Poker Run. If you’re far, far away and still have an interest in supporting the cause, you can donate via the Venmo listed over on the Tailer Trash Fly Fishing website. We’re looking forward to November 7, 2020. We can’t wait to meet a lot of you and raise as much money as possible to support Marine Discovery Center.

The band is back together. Join us as we catch up on recent travels, reminisce about school field trips from back in the day and kick around random topics from the luxurious confines of the double wide trailer. Plans are made for 2021 fly fishing goals and they're about as oxymoronic as jumbo shrimp. You’ll also hear a 2020 Dinghy Derby update, Tailer Trash Fly Fishing Film Festival update and holiday gift ideas at the Tailer Trash web store.

As the rain fell and the flood water continued to rise, the Tailer Trash crew sat down around the Old Oak Table to record yet another installment from the Tailer Park. Ben caught us up on his recent binge drinking in upstate South Carolina, the plastic hatches on the Pacolet River and tater tots. Jamieson shares details from his first gator hunt and a trip to Georgia to visit his uncle’s hunt camp. Carl takes us along for the ride on a recent trip back to his old stomping grounds for a bachelor party. Larry reports on the flood tide action he recently had in North Florida. The guys discuss the value of getting a subscription to Anchored Outdoors to gain access to vetted expert content. We also talked about if bucket lists really exist and what exactly they are... Hope you enjoy the white noise, the frogs seemed to...

Episode 52 is rare matinee session in the Tailer Park. High on Velveeta cheese based queso dip, the full cast of malcontents discuss a wide ranging number of topics. A review / recommendation on the Mill House Podcast & Flip’s YouTube Channel somehow leads to one of our longer shows in a while. Sit back, keep an open mind and listen along as four guys in a double wide trailer solve the world’s problems and opine on everything that matters.

To start the evening off, Ben shares his best pick-up strategies at home improvement stores. Make sure you’re prepared to take notes! Marc and Larry share a little bit about their recent fly fishing foray in the NIRL. Larry recaps his trip to East Tennessee, where he fished with Robert King from The South Holston River Fly Shop. As the water quality plunges to something akin to chocolate milk in most of Mosquito Lagoon, the conversation turns to the difference between areas where guides self-police their ranks and how they value and advocate on behalf of the waters where they work and those that don’t. A T2F2 episode wouldn’t be complete without some observations on recent social media, so true to form Nautilus Fly Reel’s recent visit to the White House and the subsequent fall out on Instagram is examined in detail. A deadline for the Tailer Park Fly Fishing Film Festival is set for the end of August. The Yard Sale is open! As Frank Bartles would say; “…and thank you for your support.” A big thanks to Leslin O. for her support of the podcast by sending the Mail Barge by laden with some sweet Montana brews.

We’re a little giddy over the fact that we’ve reached Episode 50 of the podcast. If you’ve listened from the beginning, you know it’s actually more than that, but who’s counting… Unfortunately, Carl was a victim of the weather, a stomach bug or something, so he missed the festivities. Andrew was able to join us remotely from Tennessee, which was great, he’s been a part of the podcast from before the rebellion to Episode Zero and beyond. Actual fly fishing was discussed / lies were told to reminisce about recent outings around Mosquito Lagoon and the beaches of the panhandle. Piña Coladas lead to a teachable moment regarding “The Walk of Shame” vs. “The Walk of Fame”. We reviewed: Pabst Blue Ribbon Presents: The Greatest Beer Run Ever Episode 50’s pre-show dinner was prepared on the new Fire Disk & we share our initial thoughts on how it performs. The Mail Barge paid a visit to the Tailer Park to bring news regarding #PopperGate Don’t forget to visit the Bilge to get Larry Littrell’s review of Aaron Reed’s new book, Fly Fishing Austin and Central Texas. When you do, sign up for a chance to win a free copy. As always, there’s more to discover in the episode. Enjoy & Stay Trashy

Along with the Saharan dust cloud, stifling heat blanketed the Tailer Park, so we left the Traeger tucked away and opted for pizza from the best joint in NSB for a pre-show meal. Marc is on vacation, so Jameison joined us to help keep the Old Oak Table balanced. We were stoked to get to meet his new red boned hound, Waylon; and we're pretty sure he liked podcast night too. Larry ran through some of his recent fly fishing adventures and mis-adventures in South FL and the Keys for peacock bass, bonefish and snapper. Ted joined us for an update from north of the border and to answer listener questions about random Canadiana. Before we wrapped up, the conversation turned into a planning and strategy session that could very well lead to an international incident. We wrap up shortly after a quick round table of the usual nonsense and a review of the first submission received for the Tailer Park Fly Fishing Film Festival. jO9PwUfYWwwDcXVqzFBu

Despite the Corona induced cancellation of the 2020 guiding season in Alaska, Chip and Sky are headed to Bristol Bay to spend the summer as caretakers of the shuttered lodge where they typically spend their summers. We catch up with what has been happening in their life over the past year, talk safety on the water and take our typical serpentine path through fly fishing through the balance of the episode. We mention another great podcast during the episode when talking about being smart with Personal Floatation Devices on the water. Here’s that article: https://castingacross.com/astral-sturgeon-the-pfd-for-fishing/ Astral makes some great PFDs that you might consider. If not for you, for your loved ones: https://www.astraldesigns.com/ You can follow along on social media with Skylar's and Chip's adventure on Instagram @katmai_sky @angleruntangler

When a cowboy goes down, a bull fighter steps in to protect them. With Ben on the sidelines, Ty Dymond did just that for us by sliding into a seat around the Old Oak Table. We learned a bit about the life of being a rodeo protection athlete and catch up on recent events including time we spent with the new Drake Boatworks, Nomad 2.0. https://www.drakeboatworks.com/nomad Update on the Tailer Park Fly Fishing Film Festival submissions and rules. https://tailertrash.com/news/tailer-park-fly-fishing-film-festival-call-for-artists/ The best local fudge you can get. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FBZJWS2/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_yC8YEb9BGVB3Y All the usual nonsensical ramblings you’ve come to expect.

Turns out there is light at the end of the Carlrona tunnel. To be prepared for the return to normalcy, we convened a meeting in the Tailer Park to restore order to the beer fridge and to gorge on tasty treats fresh off the Traeger. Once we were tuned up, we kicked around our thoughts and experiences about the non-pandemic pandemic, one-way shopping lanes and our hopes for the future. On the conservation front, we discuss a recent "Everglades" call to action that is devoid of details but big on hype. Apparently, it pays well to gaslight certain causes... We also flesh out what the Tailer Park Fly Fishing Film Festival hopes to see in submissions. We hope that you and your squad are planning to share your adventures with us. Get on it, your assignment is due no later than July 31st, 2020. https://tailertrash.com/news/tailer-park-fly-fishing-film-festival-call-for-artists/ As usual, there's more grandstanding and nonsense in the episode. We even tell a fishing story or two...

Another social distancing episode from the Tailer Park. We’re joined by YouTuber, Ben “The Huge Fly Fisherman” Sittig. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX5H2TAWddhGYYcCR5dc3sQ A guilty pleasure YouTuber is revealed: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwMXrmYcIPk2wKKgMqRw5WQ The Tailer Park Fly Fishing Film Festival call for artists is made.

Hear our thoughts on the current situation we all find ourselves in as well as our travel plans for when its over. Don’t forget that 239 Flies & Outfitters is still honoring the “CARLRONA19” discount code. Save a few bucks and support great friends of the show!

The boys are already skilled at distancing themselves from the real world, so meeting up in the Tailer Park for grilled meat and cold beer only seemed natural in the face of the current pandemic. With topics ranging from Larry’s pajamas, finding the end of YouTube and the moral and ethical questions of whether or not to catch and release into hot grease, the conversation covers a good bit of ground. Listener questions were answered – thanks to everyone that took the time to call! Also buried in the episode is an opportunity to support 239 Flies & Outfitters and get a discount while doing so. As always, thanks to Traeger Grills for making it easy to eat like kings!

Grab a beer and take a seat alongside Larry Littrell as he sits down with Jessy Wayles to find out where she is from and how how she ended up in New Smyrna Beach at Marine Discovery Center, spearheading their conservation and restoration programming.

Find out how beneficial the donation will be to support Marine Discovery Center’s efforts to educate the next generation and conduct community outreach to improve and protect our local estuary.

The guys talk streaming content old and new, including some guilty pleasures that should have remained secret. Reel talk continues with observations about a recent social media post regarding the recent release of a high performance, high end reel that nobody would ever fish in Mosquito Lagoon. Sprinkle in a little fishing report, the usual rabbit holes and you’re well on your way knowing what to expect from a Friday evening in the Tailer Park.

Fueled by street tacos and beer, the boys recount recent fishing trips, discuss the silliness of territorial limits placed on fly shops as well as the usual nonsense you've come to love about life in the Tailer Park.

OG Podcast Member, Andrew Gilbert was back in town with his camera and a bottle of bourbon for the weekend. Fresh off a recent work engagement and a trip to the Lowcountry, we spend an evening talking about art, photography, fly fishing, and a slew of other nonsense you've come to expect. Marc, Ben & Larry add a bit of color commentary to the roving conversation that touches on dock fishing etiquette & gender equality in fly fishing among other things...

After enjoying a short happy hour at a local watering hole, we returned to the Tailer Park to continue the GoStickerMe campaign and lay down another episode. With everyone back around the Old Oak Table, we covered a range of topics, including, Ben's beard reduction, a report on IFTD in Denver and the usual nonsense that keeps us entertained. We hope you will be as well.
