Tom Rowland Podcast

Ben Crawford completed the 2000+ mile Appalachian Trail with his wife and 6 kids, ranging in age from 2 to 16. WOW! We discuss why he decided to go on this trip in the first place, the challenges that presented themselves along the way and how it affected his family. Along the way I learned much more about Ben. He is a very interesting guy who has been a professional Blackjack player among other things. We, of course, go into what exactly card counting is and why the Casinos do not like it. Be sure to keep up with Ben and his family on YouTube and Instagram and check out his book.

When you’re fly fishing on the flats, a powerful and accurate backcast is one of the most important skills to have. In fact, it is nit even an optional skill. The powerful and accurate backcast is a crucial fundamental rather than an advanced tactic. Fish appear in an instant and you have to be ready to make a cast at any angle regardless of which way the wind is blowing. Everyone is ready for the standard forward cast, but if a fish appears at an angle with a right shoulder wind (for a right hand caster) a backcast is crucial. Your guide will be able to put you on a lot more fish if you have these skills as well. Practice makes perfect, so be sure to practice your backcast accuracy and distance in the yard before your next saltwater trip but NEVER TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THE TARGET!

The Ring Game is an old game that I created to make my kids better anglers from a young age. Young kids will quickly learn to read water, and how to become more accurate at casting while having fun and spending time with you. The idea is that they throw their line out, and wherever it lands, you have to land your lure inside the ripple that they made before it disappears. Eventually they will want to switch, and you can start making the first cast, and they can try to land their lure inside the ripple. This is a fun way to get your kids into the sport and teach them how to control their rod and become excellent casters.  Do you have any fun games similar to this that have worked to make your kid a better angler?

On this week’s How 2 Tuesday, I go over a technique that I have been using a lot recently. Teasing in jacks can be effective for many situations. In this episode, I go over when this is helpful, whether you’re scouting out a new area, or trying to get the fish closer to the boat for a fly fisherman. I also go over how to make the tease lure, and what techniques you should use when reeling the tease lure in.  If you have questions or suggestions for the show you can text Tom at 1 305-930-7346 This episode has been brought to you by Waypoint TV. Waypoint is the ultimate outdoor network featuring streaming of full-length fishing and hunting television shows, short films and instructional content, a social media network, Podcast Network.

Many of you know that the deck of cards is one of my favorite workouts, especially when you’re on the road with no equipment and no access to a gym. I use this workout so often that I actually created my own deck with custom workouts. In this episode, I go through my deck and explain how it works, and how you can create a similar workout with any card deck. If you want one of my custom made decks, text the word WORKOUT to (305) 930-7346. The first run sold out fast so reserve your deck now and never rely on a gym again.

I first learned of Capt. Peter Deeks from my friend and mentor Bill Dance.  He spoke very highly Peter and that made me take notice.  A second trusted friend, Joe Simmonds of Salt Strong also had a very high regard for Peter.  I did a little research and got Peter on the show to discuss how he became Bill Dance’s go to guide in saltwater, how he manages to put over 100,000 miles on his truck, countless hours on engines, all in the pursuit of keeping his clients happy and returning.  It is working.  Peter has an excellent reputation that precedes him.  I found out why.  Check out this conversation with someone else who believes that guiding is an art form and continues to work on his masterpiece on every trip.

In this episode, we break down how to increase your numbers. Maybe you have to qualify for an event by hitting a certain number of pushups within a minute, or maybe you just want to build some personal goals for yourself. This program was not created by me, but is a great way to improve those numbers. I used it before SEALFIT Kokoro and again before Goruck Selection to be sure that I could easily complete the published standard for the physical standards. It is hard work but through consistency the numbers will rise. Be sure to check out this episode to hear my step-by-step instructions on how to implement this into your routine.

When I am fishing and shooting Saltwater Experience, one of the hardest things to do is eat consistently healthy. When you’re headed out on the water, it’s way too easy to just grab an unhealthy snack or something that you know will fill you up, but isn’t the best for you. In this episode I break down some tricks that I have found to help me stay consistent with my diet, even out on the water. I go over some key foods that I bring on the boat that are available in most grocery stores without being unhealthy. We also go over things to avoid. I hope that this helps you to make the most of your day on the water, without ruining your diet. By the way…How are your 2021 diet resolutions coming along?  Text “Accountability” to (305) 930-7346 to join our community of people holding each other accountable to our goals in 2021.

Dave Stewart hosts the WetFly Swing Podcast and I had the chance to both be on his podcast, and interview him for mine as well. As you can tell from his name, Dave spends most of his fishing time swinging for steelhead, but also has a ton of experience with marketing/podcasting. We talk about many things on this episode, including the business side of podcasting, social media in the fishing industry, quitting your regular job to pursue your dreams, and much more.

I typically have been keeping all of my rigging gear in the leaning post of my Yellowfin 24. Yellowfin created some fantastic storage  that was previously wasted so I have organized it well with the 3600 Plano boxes. This past week we had a few cold days on the water and it helped me to realize that there may be a better solution. Because the area is in the middle of the boat, it is a comfortable place to sit and it is also the only shade on the boat, it is often where everyone wants to be.  Additionally, the lean post gets crowded with jackets, sunscreen, and really anything that needs to be set down. This often blocks me from easily getting to my rigging gear or having to ask a guest to move so that I can get to the fluorocarbon, hooks or other tackle.  Plano just came out with the new Edge waterproof boxes.  They come in many sizes but the one that is useful in this situation is one that is designed for plastics.  It is the same foot print as a 3700 box but it is 7 inches deep.  I can store an entire set o

Over the past two weeks we’ve talked about new year’s resolutions and strategies to have the most success at them. A big part of a lot of people’s resolutions is diet. Now I’m not going to tell you what you should and should not eat, but I do have some strategies for sticking to your plan once you have worked out your diet schedule with a doctor or dietician. In this episode, we go over strategies for making sure you are comsuming the right amount of food, and how to meal prep to ensure that you will be able to stick to this plan for the long term.  If you have questions or suggestions for the show you can text Tom at 1 305-930-7346 This episode has been brought to you by Waypoint TV. Waypoint is the ultimate outdoor network featuring streaming of full-length fishing and hunting television shows, short films and instructional content, a social media network, Podcast Network.
