The Fishful Thinker Podcast

Locating Fish

Before you can catch fish, you have to find fish. Yet, for some reason, folks always ask us how we caught them, not how we located them. Over our 18 years of guiding and 14 years of hosting Fishful Thinker Television, we've developed some key location strategies that we can apply to nearly any species of fish, especially those reservoir dwellers anglers most common chase. This episode as host Chad LaChance sharing those key location details. Please check out all our social media and subscribe if you like our information! @FishfulThinker on FB, Insta and YouTube.

Getting the most from a guided fishing trip

Booking a guided trip can be a great way to advance your angling skills and an investment in memories you'll have forever. To get the most bang for you buck, it pays to keep a few things in mind when choosing a guide and planning your outing. Longtime fellow fishing guide Dan Swanson and host Chad LaChance discuss how to get the most out of your guided trip.

Choosing SONAR units for your boat with expert Dan Swanson

Fishing boats have evolved into floating info gatherers when it comes to depth, mapping and more. Sonar and GPS units are standard fishing boat accessories and are often found even on kayaks these days. Problem is, electronics aren't cheap or intuitive. In this episode, host Chad LaChance is joined by industry leading electronics expert and fishing guide, Dan Swanson to discuss how best to spend your hard earned dollars when choosing a modern sonar/GPS unit for your fishing needs.
