This month, the man in charge at Off Shore Tackle, Nick DeShano.

Nick talks about the early days of the company, his role in the evolution of Off Shore and where the Michigan based company is today.

DeShano describes his family's passion for hunting and fishing, and why it's important to keep production of their products here in the US.

He also talks about the appeal of trolling and why he believes it will always be a popular technique for many anglers.

We're talking with an old friend of the Off Shore Tackle family this time on the podcast.

Craig MacPhee is a Charter Captain and duck hunting guide on Saginaw Bay and southern Lake Huron with his Tail Annihilators guide service.

He talks about the evolution of the Lake Huron fishery, the salmon fishing there and targeting big lake trout.

McPhee also describes running offshore to fish the scum line, the role of pink and atlantic salmon in the fishery and why steelhead are so fun to catch.

Craig then talks about how he uses Off Shore releases and boards...and how he got to know the DeShano Family.

We're heading to the smaller, inland lakes this time on the Off Shore Tackle podcast with Nick Dood of Reel Live Action Charters.

Nick talks about inland fishing versus the Great Lakes, how he uses Off Shore Tadpoles for depth control, why boat traffic can be a factor and his choice for inline planer boards (the OR 12 with tattle flags).

The Charter Captain and tournament angler also describes the difference between those two activites and why he finds inland fishing more relaxing than big water options.
