Great Conversations
I have enjoyed all of the Destination Angler podcasts. The host is a great interviewer. He asks good questions and lets the guests answer them. This results in great conversations. Give it a listen!
Where to go next
The podcast is great. Hearing about different places and rivers to fish told by guys that know it best is terrific. It gives me good ideas about where to go next and after that and after that. Guests often give interesting fishing tips that are actually helpful and Steve does a great job of keeping the conversation on point and moving along. Destination Angler podcast is an easy 5stars!
My Go To
I’ve been a fishing guide in the Adirondacks for over 20 years and more recently a registered Maine Fishing Guide. Destination angler is the first podcast I go to when in the mood to listen about fishing. Great shows. Keep up the good work.

Davy Wotton podcast
Excellent podcast with the great Davy Wotton. As an aspiring wet fly angler, it is always a treat to listen to Mr. Wotton share his expertise. It would be wonderful to have another episode to focus on his wet fly techniques.
Time well spent
Listened to so many of Steve's podcasts! Just sheer enjoyment. Informative, insightful and refreshing! Just normal people talking about the love of the sport and the places they call home waters. Thank you! Keep them coming!
Fantastic Podcast!
I would highly encourage listeners to checkout the Destination Angler Podcast. Steve is a talented host that interviews fly fishing guides about their exciting experiences on a variety of waters. As a angler himself, his passion and enthusiasm are evident to seek answers for his listeners that are considering to book new fishing adventures.

Great Resource for Fly Fishing Enthusiasts
An excellent podcast for learning about locations, gear and techniques for catching fish on the fly. The guests always have interesting stories and insights on all types of fish in locations around the world. Highly recommend!
A good friend on a long commute
I love listening to the Destination Angler Podcast during my hour long (each way) commute for work. It introduces me to different areas that I haven't fished and may never fish, but after listening I feel I've been there. Steve's questions are great, and the guests are interesting. The most memorable podcast for me was the interview with John Maclean. It was a two parter and honestly I could have listened more!
Trout yeah Brown trout addiction my friends
Love hearing Josh Miller talk, learn so much just by listening between him and Don Cameroni I’ve learned so much
Destination angler podcast
Steve does a fantastic job at lining up great guests and provides great interviews with them. Always very informative podcasts where I’m able to soak in lots of useful information which makes me excited for trying new waters and applying techniques that are discussed. Thanks Steve for your quality show!

Highly recommended!!!
Absolutely one of my favorite podcasts! Steve has curated an incredible list of anglers, tyers, authors and outdoorsmen and women who have shared a wealth of knowledge, tips and trips with his listeners. I have really enjoyed his conversations, learned a ton and get inspired to travel and try new waters all along the way. One thing I really appreciate is that Steve leaves the spotlight on his guests, and is careful to not speak over them while they’re sharing and asks great questions to keep things flowing smoothly. It’s very easy and interesting to listen to! Highly recommended podcast!
The best
Steve, like you, I read his book and his dad’s and watched “The Movie” several times. Your two part interview was spectacular. You even got the rest of the story about the opening from the researchers at University of Chicago. As outdoors oriented podcast go, you truly are the best. Jim
Outstanding.
Both [Blackfoot River] episodes were outstanding. Pulling the curtains back on the book and movie was quite entertaining. Ready to watch / read again.
Awesome
Love this podcast. I can fly fish and travel without leaving my car! The people and interviews are so compelling and well done. Makes me want to travel to new waters, but also helps me appreciate my home waters.
Praising destination podcast
Great job!!
Steve asks great questions to keep the narrative moving along. He respects the subject interviewed and genuinely expresses interest throughout.
Experiences & Knowledge
Steve and all of his guests not only give great knowledge about streams, rivers, high-country, and general fly fishing, they make you yearn to get out and experience the stories they relay and the water they talk about.
A great podcast series, worth the listen - every single time.
Honestly one of the best podcasts for outdoor travel and fly fishing
I have been a long time listener to the Destination Angler podcast. This is one of the best outdoors related podcasts on any platform hands down. Many other podcasts get boring over time, but Steve keeps the conversation going and is on to a new destination with great stories. To me if feels a lot like the book, The Optimist by David Coggins. Every episode paints new picture of an awesome fishery as told by the guides that know, love and work to preserve the watershed for future generations.
Keep up the great work Steve! And if you get up to the Driftless Area or Western Wisconsin, do not hesitate to reach out.

Destination Angler
There’s a good mix of guides and fishery experts that make the podcast interesting and informative. I’ve poured through several past episodes after finding the show.

Just what I was looking for
Very informative and easy listening, love the in depth questions that pick some of the world's best fishermen's brains!
Trip Planner
No such thing as coincidences I guess. I tuned into the podcast a couple of days after learning that my daughter, just graduated from high school, landed a job in Custer State Park in South Dakota. We will be escorting her to the park end of July. As a bonafide trout bum I immediately wondered how the fishing was in the area. The latest podcast was an interview with Rapid City fly shop owner, Hans, and gave me a perfect primer on fishing opportunities in the very area I will be visiting for four days. The interview questions mirrored what I would likely be asking Hans if we were face to face. What a great resource this podcast is for anybody planning or just thinking about taking a trip. I will be checking out the podcast archive for future spots to travel. Well done!
Loving the Destination Angler
I recently met Steve on a trip to central PA. What a great guy and a great podcast host. I've really enjoyed listening to the podcast and hearing all of the stories from guides around the country. It's helped me get through a bunch of road trips already. Give it a listen!
5 star from an avid traveling fly fisherman
The destination angler hosts some fishy guest that anyone can pick up a thing or two from. Us fly fisherman love to travel, see new sights, catch new species and explore. This podcast can fuel that energy to book your next trip. Cheers @clay_fishonfilm
Slinging meat with Don
Very informative. I’ve actually fished with Don several times. he's a true keeper of the river. the world needs more people like him
Ideal for traveling anglers
Steve is an excellent host. He asks the questions I would ask of folk who work on water I want to fish.

The perfect podcast
Steve has the perfect guests. Folk that work on the water I want to fish. Steve ask the perfect questions, stuff I want to know. Steve has the perfect amount of time for each podcast, long enough to get all the information and short enough to keep my interest.
Love this Podcast
The Destination Angler Podcast is one of my two favorite fishing podcasts. The other is the Orvis Fly Fishing Podcast. The hosts styles and their focuses are quite different, and I really like both of them. I particularly enjoy this podcast’s focus on super interesting fly fishing destinations. These range from locations that are on most anglers bucket list to much lesser known and offbeat locations. I think of Destination Angler as fly fishing travelogue.
I highly recommend giving this podcast a listen!

Best Realistic podcast
I really enjoy the podcast. I love that it covers mostly locations in the United States that are more realistic locations for most anglers. Steve covers the destination from the standpoint of the average fisherman looking for some adventure travel. I have journeyed to a couple of destinations that Steve has covered and put a few more on my bucket list. I’ve also eliminated some. It’s my favorite podcast.
Great fly fishing podcast
Steve does a great job with this podcast! It’s always fun to listen to an episode of somewhere I’ve fished before or to learn about a new destination!!!
