This episode was so powerful for me personally. He spoke to the passion of connecting with Nature and choosing that over profit. That's been my life story as a writer and holistic fly fishing guide. I resonated deeply with his life story and it helped me take a deep look at my own trajectory....Read full review »

We took fly fishing lessons from her about 10 years ago. We had fly fished for years but not with the 2 handed rod & we wanted to get exposed to it. She was giving a small clinic on a river & my husband & I were part of the group. We found her to be more interested in the other...Read full review »

April is an excellent interviewer —. Interviews that might otherwise lack luster, are polished by her skill. She occasionally interjects her own experience but it never becomes about her. Rather, it always remains about the person being interviewed.

Always insightful interviews with interesting guests. Learn stuff every time i listen.

Great podcast on an untouched subject. But I have a feeling a Pandora’s Box will be opened once folks hear Zielinski’s passion for this subject. It is contagious……..I’m going to start planning 2024 and 2025. Great work.

Would love to see you interview Dom Swentosky!

Recently discovered this podcast, grew up in the Fraser Valley fishing rivers and lakes around BC, hearing the interviews from people from my past brings back so many memories, hearing tails from new people adds to bucket list trips, great way to kill time while traveling as a truck driver in...Read full review »

Love listening to this while I tie flies

This was an amazing interview. Although I have followed Emily Roger on Instagram for a few years now, I did not know much of her backstory and had lost track a bit over the last year. Her story is amazing in itself, but I also admire the both of you for the courage when you came across issues...Read full review »

Thank you so much for doing this episode!! I am a mom of a 5 month old and a 2 year old and have not been able to hunt or fish for 2 years but am looking to get back out and start bringing my girls. I am a first generation hunter and fisher and would love to be able to feel more comfortable and...Read full review »

Loved this interview with Skip. We once fished an evening together in Northern CA and he was gracious enough to share a few flies with me

I enjoy this podcast a lot. Steve Ramierz interview was particularly incredible. Thank you!!!!!

Not your typical outdoors podcast. April has a unique style and thoughtful way of looking at how and why we pursue outdoor activities.
VirginiaRiverGuy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/22
Always informative. Always respectful. Always diverse in topic and focus. Always grounded. I learn about angling and the outdoors, the complexities and simplicity of people and their lives. Thanks for producing such a wonderful podcast!

I’m 32 years old and never once found fishing exciting, let alone interesting but stumbling upon this podcast has been a welcomed surprise.

Listened recently to an older podcast featuring John Gierach. Found out more about my favorite fishing author in that episode than in any of the others I have listened to. Great Job April!

Lots of nagging and nonsense ! Listened to a couple episodes and didn’t like one! Might just be me or it might just not be good one bit!
hsjwkkebev via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 09/20/21
I enjoy the guests and some of the subject matter. I do however have a problem with someone calling themselves a “hunter” but having a problem with using the word “kill” when it comes to the actual taking of animals as mentioned in the podcast with Donnie Vincent. To me this a shrug to the...Read full review »

It would be nice if those who have podcasts would have more experience in the sport in which they are doing a podcast about.

Rodney Fox and girls boobs!!! I was dying lol. However I recently listened to Jim Shockey’s episode and I did not realize what a quack he is. “Proven there are 74 different genders.” And how he dogged on agriculture when talking about chicken production, not super professional Just listened to...Read full review »

Weak, at best, interview skills. Comes across as way to contrived. Best to stick to writing with a good editor to help out.

Great podcasts - thank you so much. In particular, the episodes where your guests talk about their experiences with depression. Much appreciated.

Like everyone else, I started to listen to Anchored to learn more about a specific guest or Fly Fishing topics (Hoagy Charmichael, Kirk Deeter, Jen Ripple etc). But I found myself listening to all her shows because I like her style. She’s not just another expert angler looking to show off his/her...Read full review »

Top notch
T.Scott54 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/12/20
While I don’t listen to each episode, this is my go to podcast. April is talented at what she does and has some of the best interviews out there.

Just recently joined Anchored Oudoors . Longtime fisherman. Beginner fly fisherman. Life gets in the way! Have followed your career in fly fishing many years. Really enjoyed this Podcast with John Gierach. Very insightful. You seem to excel in all you do, but you seem to be a natural interviewer....Read full review »

I have only recently discovered this podcast. While I truly enjoy each show, my favorite is the Ted Juracsik interview. That interview was heartfelt and inspirational when they spoke of his life, as well as technical and exciting when he spoke of his reels and machining knowledge. Ted is...Read full review »

I’m a 58 year old white guy who also happens to be married to a real Karen - who is delightful by the way. So, while I may be privileged, I clearly wasn’t too privileged because I only recently discovered April Vokey and her podcast. When I get really busy at work I stockpile my hunting and...Read full review »

Surprise podcast. I listen mainly for the fishing and fishing-related stories, which I enjoy and can listen to as I’m doing other things. This one, a podcast that hit deeply into what many of us need in terms of healing, especially now, had my whole attention. Anyone who fishes knows the...Read full review »

Undoubtedly, this is probably the most profound podcast you have made to date. I have listened for many years, and I have thoroughly enjoyed your work. They are always good, with lots of insight, but I do have to say that this one moved me the most. I applaud you!

My first opportunity to listen to ANCHORED and I throughly enjoyed every minute of it. Looking forward to listening to the next Podcast.

Yes
Great pod

I should have written this years ago. Excellent podcast. April has a way of interviewing her guest that makes you feel as if you know them and her personally. Very informative and entertaining. Outstanding!
Dan Dunkley via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/14/20
It has been an incredible experience to be learning from another BC born, female fly angler. (I have no mentors, & learning from scratch via books & podcasts has been quite the interesting twist, to learning how to wild steelhead & trout hunt.) April’s podcasts are incredibly...Read full review »

Brian Chan is the godfather of still water fly fishing and the uncontested Master of Chronomid (midge - for our American brethren) fishing. April Vokey is one of the most exciting and engaging fly fishing personalities in the new age of angling. So to listen to her interview this eminent...Read full review »

Love April’s easy way of interviewing, always good subject matter, keep up the great work

April gets deep and personal with some great names out there- going beyond the run- of- the-mill questions you might expect with these personalities.

Digging the episode outline...I don’t always have time to listen to an entire episode all at once...the outline lets me skip around based on what I’m interested in at the moment.

This is the best season yet! Great guests on the topics of conservation and the inner workings of the ff industry.

Just started listening because I apparently live in a cave, but truly a fantastic podcast. I love how you get your guests to just be real. Thanks April!
