My great buddy Frank Ciccone joined me on the podcast to talk about his origins in fly fishing, the outdoors, and why he started a youtube channel to document his adventures with his friends and family.

Frank has always been an inspiring guy to be around and it really comes through in this episode why that is. Frank loves to be around his friends and to provide amazing days in the places that he admires the most, beautiful rivers around the world.

We covered a lot of ground in this interview, from how he got started in fishing, fly fishing and filming. We talked about our Jefferson's fishing club first annual trip and why you should start a fishing club with your friends.

Frank shared a ton of great advice in this episode and I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
