On this podcast we will tiptoe across the smallest creeks, yet submerge ourselves into the vastest seas in search of what makes fisherman feel alive. A romantic yet very real look at the life of being a fisherman. The darkest nights at sea and the back alleys. The ones that got away both upon the water and the land. A brutally honest look into the depths of sport fishing, charter fishing and commercial fishing. Follow host Kenton Geer as he does his best to navigate the world of fishing. Fishing is not always pretty, but it's a beautiful life.

William Goldsmith known for the better part of his life as "Willy Goldfish" is now all grown up. I first met Willy when he was a 14 year old patron aboard the charter boat Bunny Clark out of Oguinquit Maine. When I first met Willy he hadn't quite grown into his body yet. He was goofy, inquisitive, well spoken, sharp witted and above all passionate about fishing. Willy still possesses all of those traits except he undoubtedly has come into his own. Willy is smart, well traveled and extremely knowledgeable about the fisheries. Willy is a Harvard graduate and holds a PhD. Willy has worked on capital hill, run a satellite tagging program for Bluefin Tuna on the East Coast and satellite tagged White Marlin. Willy is a passionate angler who can almost always be found fishing when he's not working on fishery related issues. Willy was even a deckhand for a couple trips on the Vicious Cycle many years ago who brought recreational fishing gear on the boat that forever changed the way we do business to this day. Willy is the current director of the American Saltwater Guide Association (ASGA) where he is currently placing all his effort on Striped Bass related issues. I learned a lot from this episode including the fact that recreational anglers are responsible for 90 percent of all Striped Bass Mortality on the East Coast. I would have never guessed that. It won't take long listening to realize Willy is highly intelligent, knowledgeable, accountable and passionate about fishing. Willy tried to weasel out of a few of my direct fishery and fishery management questions but over all he takes them all on the chin and rebuttals with common sense answers. I really enjoyed this interview, if Striped Bass are meaningful to you or your business you're not going to want to miss this interview.
