    Episode 53 - Private Water vs. Public Access, and a Discussion with Brenden Stucky and R.J. Hosking of Rare Waters

    · WAYPOINTS - with Jim Klug

    Stream access rights and regulations in the United States vary throughout the country, and depending on where exactly you’re fishing, the laws dealing with how you can enter a riverbed or step into the water can be wildly different. The subject is a complicated one, and with a growing number of anglers and a continued increase in the popularity of fishing, the stream access issue has dramatically heated up over the past several years. In the midst of the continuing and heated battle for public access and fishing rights throughout the US, a company called Rare Waters is offering what they believe is a unique option to diversify angler access. With the Rare Waters model, individual anglers can secure river access to private property through an “Air-BNB-like” pay-to-play platform. They’ve created a network with property owners – primarily and initially in the US West – who are willing – for a fee – to grant access to anglers looking for both solitude and exclusive access. And while Rare Waters is not buying up properties and converting public waters into private waters, a lot of anglers nonetheless have very strong opinions on public access and the pay-to-access scenarios. In this episode, Waypoints host Jim Klug is joined by RJ Hosking and Brendan Stucky of Rare Waters for a discussion about stream access, private property rights, the history of private “fishing clubs,” and the effects of increased angling pressure on our rivers and streams.

    · WAYPOINTS - with Jim Klug

    At more than 850,000 square miles in size with a total population of less than 57,000 people, Greenland is the world’s largest island. While more than 80% of the country is covered with ice on a year-round basis, the summer months for the coastal areas bring ice-free arctic tundra, crystal-clear conditions on freestone rivers, and incredible numbers of sea-run Arctic Char. This episode of Waypoints – recorded on location in Greenland during a recent ten day trip – focuses on two different locations and operations: Camp North on the Eqalugsugssuit River, and Erfalik Lodge on the Erfalik River. Waypoints host Jim Klug talks with Thomas Sobirk – the founder of Fly Fish Greenland – about fishing for sea-run char, the characteristics of the rivers, seasons in Greenland, flies and equipment, travel logistics, landscapes, the history of the operation, and more. This is one of the most exciting new options in the entire world of adventure and destination angling – ideal for those that love remote locations, rugged landscapes, and rivers that are totally and completely off the grid.

    Episode 51 - JACK PORTER – Comparing Argentina and Chile: How to Choose the Best Options for a South American Fishing Trip

    · WAYPOINTS - with Jim Klug

    There’s no question that Patagonia is one of the premier freshwater fly fishing destinations in the world – a dynamic, one-of-a-kind region in South America that is home to dozens of world-class lodges, experienced and professional guides, and more rivers, streams, and lakes than can possibly be fished in a lifetime. The options and choices are both plentiful and varied, however, which is why deciding exactly where, when, and how to fish Patagonia can at times be confusing. This is especially true when initially choosing between Chile and Argentina. To discuss the many differences between the two countries – and to talk Patagonia in general – we’re joined on this episode by Jack Porter, Yellow Dog Flyfishing’s Program Director for South America. Jack has lived in Argentina, worked at several lodges in Patagonia, and – during his time at Yellow Dog – assisted thousands of anglers with planning trips to one of the most incredible fly fishing regions on the planet.

    Episode 50 - WADE FELLIN & GUY ALSENTZER – Disappearing Wild Trout Populations in Southwest Montana: What the Hell is Going on in Big Sky Country?

    · WAYPOINTS - with Jim Klug

    In the spring of 2023, Montana’s media started to highlight the fact that wild trout populations in Montana’s Jefferson Basin – an area that includes the world-famous Big Hole, Ruby, Beaverhead and Jefferson Rivers – were in severe distress. Legendary for cold-water fisheries that have historically supported an abundance of wild trout, the rivers in Southwest Montana are currently experiencing what some are calling a population-level collapse. Is it too late to save Southwest Montana’s wild fish numbers and fix are rivers, or is there still hope for the near future when it comes to our fisheries resources? That is the question that needs to be asked and answered. SAVE WILD TROUT is an organization that was launched to address this very crisis: a coalition of anglers, river advocates, concerned citizens, businesses, guides, and outfitters that have come together with the focused mission of protecting wild trout for the benefit of all. In this episode of Waypoints, Jim is joined by two founding members of SAVE WILD TROUT: Guy Alsentzer and Wade Fellin – two individuals who know a thing or two about the rivers of Southwest Montana. Guy is the Executive Director and Founder of Upper Missouri Waterkeeper, and Wade is a guide, lodge owner and outfitter on the Big Hole River.

    Umpqua Feather Merchants is one of the biggest names in the fly fishing industry: a manufacturing powerhouse when it comes to innovative and effective flies, leader, tippet, premium hooks, and more. In this episode of Waypoints, we talk with Umpqua’s Director of Marketing, Russ Miller, to discuss the company’s position at the forefront of innovation for high-quality flies and accessories. When anglers grab a handful of patterns from the fly bins of a specialty fly shop, most are unaware of WHERE exactly those flies came from: how they were conceived, designed, produced, tied, shipped, and supplied. Russ talks about how flies are selected for inclusion in Umpqua’s catalog, their famous “Signature Tyer” line-up, new innovations and introductions, and what the future holds for fly patterns, hooks, and materials.

  • Episode 47 - A Return to Christmas Island: The First Week Back

    Episode 47 - A Return to Christmas Island: The First Week Back

    · WAYPOINTS - with Jim Klug

    Christmas Island – the world’s largest coral atoll – has a legendary reputation as one of the top destinations in the world for saltwater flats fishing – especially when it comes to massive numbers of bonefish. Also known as Kiritimati Atoll, Christmas is an immense coral outcropping located in the tiny Pacific Ocean Republic of Kiribati. Christmas itself has the greatest land area of any atoll in the world, and the enormous flats system that surrounds this land mass and encompasses the atoll’s inner lagoon is home to countless numbers of bonefish, several species of trevally, milkfish, triggerfish, and more. Christmas Island has – until only recently – been completely closed and shut off for more than three years. The country of Kiribati was among the first countries to lock down in the winter of 2020 at the very outset of the Pandemic. Since that time, until early May of 2023, the country has remained 100% closed off to visitors and anglers – longer than any other international fishing destination. In this episode of WAYPOINTS, host Jim Klug talks with angler Tim Rote, who was on the first plane back to Christmas Island for the opening week. After more than three years and one month of the atoll being closed, Tim talks about what the first group back found, and the current state of the atoll, the communities on Christmas, the lodges, and of course the fishery.
