I started listening to the podcast 3 episodes in, I was hooked! This podcast opened up a new perspective on the world of fishing guides, and allowed me to find my own path into becoming a captain. Hunter is an excellent host and an even better human! 11/10 recommend Captans Collective

I look forward to listening to the Captains Collective Podcast but I must say how disappointed I was with the latest show. I certainly appreciate the work ethic but there was not much that I learned and the interaction between Hunter and Gabe Arrington was difficult to listen too at times.

Hunter has a relaxed tone as he interviews guides and people I would consider “naturalists,” folks who see a huge chunk of their lives outdoors. Each episode is relaxing - I particularly enjoy the Florida/Bahamas stories. A lot of his podcasts deal with younger guides and it’s interesting to...Read full review »

It was such a great episode to hear from the local icon who is also respected globally. Thanks for creating the knowledge base of wisdom but also their stories.

Hunter does a magnificent job interviewing guests. His humility makes this podcast an easy listen and I learn so much each episode. If you are a fly angler check this show out.

As a captain & fishing guide I love to hear in depth interviews with the people I read & see and also of some of the different places that this sport has taken me.

This podcast is great when Hunter isnt peddling Left wing talking points. The episode with Meredith was awesome! The episodes with Flip and the other Leftists were garbage! Hey Hunter, honestly, we get it! My son and I practice catch and release. We pick up trash in the water. 90% of other...Read full review »

Hunter you really delivered on this one. I started to listen to your interview with Meredith not really expecting much. What's not to like, a pretty face and fish from all over the world? I was really taken back to learn about the real Meredith McCord. What a journey she has had. I...Read full review »

Just recently started listening to podcasts. I’ve been coming to St. George island and Appalachicola for about 25 years. This is an excellent podcast. I love hearing things from the guides and professionals side of view. The conservation side of it is really informative. Gives you a lot of...Read full review »

Love this podcast. Authentic, captivating, encouraging stories from anglers.

In this episode Hunter does an artful job capturing Chris’s down to earth personality. Chris tells his story and reminds us of the duty a guide has to their clients. He also shared transparently about his health challenges. Thanks for the rib smoking tips!
Jeff9294 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/25/21
The most unique and all around fishing/outdoor podcast out there. Not only does Hunter dive deep into the lives of his guests but he also helps spread the conservation message throughout. Well worth the listen. Great job Hunter

This podcast is much needed to communicate the values of the sport we love so much. Thank you so much for your hard work in bringing these great stories to the masses and growing awareness of fly fishing!
WarrenBuffett123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/29/21
This is by far my favorite podcast. Hunter does a great job interviewing the captains and asking the right questions. Listening to the different guests tell their stories on how they got started, histories of their local area and the issues facing their fishery is what makes this show great.
ecupir808 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/20
I absolutely look forward to this show each week! The quality of this podcast is validated by the wide ranging lineup of “legends” from the industry who choose to sit down and share their time and stories with Hunter and his listeners. Hunter’s humble demeanor, well research questions and...Read full review »

Uglystick1111 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/30/20
So thankful to have found these guys. Hunter and the boys do a stellar job. Format is as good as a top 10 show, but with better content lol. Seriously loving these. Very cool to learn about these guides and hearing their stories. If you like the Millhouse, you’ll like this just as well. Keep up...Read full review »

I love how Hunter covers the history of fishing, the ethics of fishing, and planning out the future for a better fishing community
Corpus Listener via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/20/20
First and foremost, Rick is my good friend. He fished my Dad for many years up until the year he passed. That year they caught Tarpon on fly. When he passed he was instrumental in helping me spread his ashes where he loved to be. Rick and I have been fishing together ( second generation) for a...Read full review »

If you’re someone who wants to share your passion for the water with others, this podcast is a great handbook. Awesome...Read full review »

Keep up the good work helps me get through the day when I can’t go fishing
fishaholic87 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/20
I enjoy the interviews and experiences shared by your guest. Being a native Floridian it’s fun to hear stories about being on the water in different locations throughout the state. Keep up the good work!
Sheepdog5749 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/20
Great job! Quality interviews by hosts that are thoughtful in their questions of the captains.
IronArt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/20
Great podcast with a chill, intimate vibe to it where I enjoyed learning about the life of the guides and of the makers of the fly fishing community. Wouldn’t hurt to add a little more technical questions once in a while but the conversation is really interesting.
Pierre on the fly NYC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/20
I really appreciate the relaxed tone of all the conversation, a nice blend of anecdotes and fishing tips. Thanks for putting this out there. I look forward to every episode!
Steve RDU via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/24/19
This podcast is by far the best podcast available to fishermen. Awesome content.
Christophe_Seychelles via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/09/19
Great to hear from the guides side of fishing and what they looking for in a customer. Now Brett was a little full of hisself but the rest has been great to hear. Keep it up. Venture out. Jake Payne in Delacroix or Dudley out of Slidell. Move out west.

Incredible array of guests and topics! Makes the daily 2 hour commute a whole lot less painful.
JKAfly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/19
If your into fly fishing or even just fishing history you’ll love this pod cast. Very nice relaxed feel of every interview, you can really tell they get a genuine interview of these guides.

You may think this podcast is only intended for hardcore saltwater fishing fans, but it is so well produced and the host does such a good job of pulling out stories and perspectives, it will hold interest for anyone that likes characters, stories of building small businesses and the outdoors more...Read full review »

Entertaining, insightful and often funny interviews. This podcast is packed with life wisdom and advice that extends far beyond the realm of fishing. As someone who could count how many times I’ve gone fishing, I recommend it to all - even if you have no plans to cast a line anytime soon! So far,...Read full review »
Dj Paul delvecchio via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/03/19
This is one of the best podcasts for fishing I have listened to. It gets into the lives of the captains being interviewed, their perspective, and the lessons they have learned along the way. I look forward to many more.

Happy to hear a fishing/outdoors pod cast that brings real down to earth outdoorsmen on the air. Sometimes watching and listening to the same “big wigs” in the industry gets old. They legends obviously and are amazing, but it’s nice to get some fresh faces in the game. Keep it up guys, looking...Read full review »

Always like to hear from a professional on their angles and their knowledge. Everyone can learn something no matter how long you have been fishing.
