John Lagow - Fly Fishing Guide, Arkansas River

Outdoors Podcast

John Lagow, professional fly fishing guide out of the historic Ark Anglers Fly Shop in B.V. Colorado joins the show. I had an absolute blast getting to know yet another incredible guide, with another super unique story. John found his way to guiding after coming to Colorado to paddle her storied waters at the young age of 19.

We had a super lively conversation about his love for the Arkansas River, the whitewater that presents unique challenges to anglers, both new and experienced, and the landscapes that he gets to explore in the area. We also spent time talking about some of the destinations John has traveled to like Cuba, Tanzania and Mexico in search of species like Tigerfish.

I'm looking forward to our next conversation about his life with sled dogs, a profession that John takes up at the end of his fishing season each year in Colorado.

Until next time, John, thanks for an incredible hour.
