Fat Dad Fishing Show
Join the Fat Dad Fishing Show on our quest to help the average saltwater angler to catch more fish and have a better on-the-water experience. Each week we will be covering topics to help anglers get the most out of their time targeting multiple species spanning the entire east coast of the USA. We will cover fishing for flounder ( fluke ), striped bass, weakfish, sheepshead, bluefish, tuna, and many more. On some episodes we talk in detail about how to catch flounder, while on others we will take a deep dive into saltwater fishing gear. While our home area ranges from DE to NY, we will speak with guests throughout the east coast. If you find value in the podcast, or are entertained please consider following the podcast, sharing with friends, and leaving a great review. All of these help us to reach more anglers and draw more guests! Tight lines!

EP 67: A Chesapeake Alarm and Some Spring Fishing with Thomas Arens
Raw sewage doesn’t stay “local.” When a major sewer line breaks on the Potomac River, the consequences travel downstream into the Chesapeake Bay, into the places we fish, crab, and launch our kayaks. We wanted a plain-spoken, real-world breakdo...
