Fly Fishing Consultant Podcast

180

The Fly Fishing Consultant Podcast focuses on education and the lifestyle surrounding fly fishing. Hosted by Rob Snowhite, a well-known urban fly fishing guide and fly tier based in Northern Virginia and Washington D.C., this podcast offers a relaxed, non-technical perspective on fly fishing suitable for both beginner and seasoned anglers. Rob's humor, along with his background in biology and extensive knowledge of nature and fishing, sets this show apart. And indeed, Snowhite is Rob's actual last name. Produced by "Producer Jason" of Freestone Productions.

    Real life fishing info
    I enjoy the down to earth info and stories. Try a Measure Net jr.guide model. Extendable handle and heavy duty also reasonably priced. Orvis pro waders is my wader recommendation
  • scvrrl
    Neighborly Love!!
    Rob this was awesome, super informative, super educational, I learned so much during a single episode, this is great work and content you have here.

    Salmon river
    Hey Rob, just wanted to reach out and let you know. I really love the show. Especially the episodes about the salmon river. Going there this weekend, for some reason I always wanted to catch one in a snow storm so figured this weekend was as good as any. Lol. Anyway, listening to your last podcast, and I couldn’t believe the bands that you were listing. You started talking about ride, and I was thinking to myself, there’s no way he’s talking about the band I think he is. Turns out you were, along with the charlatans, Nick Drake, INXS. Anyway, seems like we have a similar love for music and also steelhead fishing. Who knows, maybe I’ll see you on the Salmon River one of these days or at the bar inside the Tailwater!! Happy Thanksgiving!
  • fishinmidwest933
    Great podcast
    Like the info on bass fishing, and fly tying materials. REQUEST!!! PIKING FISHING STUFF YO! Love the podcast, still have a lot to listen to. ROB IS A LEGEND
  • lyle257
    Entertaining when most aren’t
    Maybe a pre-salmon river trip podcast this year for the listeners also going?! Funny podcast and candid. Love the salmon river stuff, the ups and downs, quick snippets on stream side meals, flies he’s tying and place he got a beer.
  • BoronII
    Fantastic podcast
    One of the best podcasts for fly fishing in general and one of the very few I always look forward listening to. Insightful, interesting, informative and inviting!
  • Bearfish Alliance
    Richard Franklin Pt 1 and Pt2
    Hands down one of the best interviews I have ever heard. I go back to listen to the Richard Franklin interviews over and over again. Well Done!
  • Dr seanathan
    Top Notch Fly Fishing Podcast w Lots Else
    I’ve listened to Rob so much I feel like we’re old buddies. I really enjoy his practical approach at things and his casual story telling humor. Even if you aren’t a hard core fly fisher person, there’s a lot in there w Rob just giving humorous observations and he is quite a foodie too. This is some great CoronaVirus binging listening material
  • Longgggggggggggwood
    Great podcast
    Rob is a great interviewer and asks the most interesting questions. He is a straight up fishy dude and ties some sick patterns like the bacon fly! Check out the podcast, you will catch more fish if you do..
  • -jch-
    Great stuff
    As someone who appreciates fly fishing and all that it entails, it’s nice to have such a well rounded podcast that covers everything from local conditions to tying, food, travel, tips and tricks, interviews and other flotsam. It’s a bit all over the place, but so am I. Good job Rob.
  • NotElonMusksBrother
    Exceptional Information
    It’s such an incredible resource to have this podcast. I drive insane amounts and I can’t get enough of Rob Snowhite’s podcast.
  • River Tactical Flies
    Great to the point podcast
    By far one of the best Podcasts that gets down to the point with some fishy folks. Great guests and a solid host.
  • fishfacepaignton
    what a windbag! no talk about fishing all about his pool, his neighbor, cooking traffic
    talked about everything about Himself but fishing. get another job
  • Listener 89345
    Ok
    Smallmouth podcast. It was ok, but the host got a bit salty about cold weather fishing, which in his opinion is under 52 degrees and similar comments. Overall, I definitely appreciate the scientific explanation and breakdown at the beginning. That part was unique and cool.
  • Kburgert
    Love it
    I really like that you talk about more than just the fishing itself when you are talking about a specific river or area. I love hearing the fishing aspects, but it's nice to hear about river structure, wildlife, and other things that really help make the experience what it is when you're on the water. Too often that is overlooked. A+
  • KGflyfisher
    Great podcast, entertaining and educational
    Love the podcast, really enjoy the episodes about fishing trips and shows. Always fun to hear about the ups and downs and shenanigans that go on behind the scenes of a podcast.
  • Zenogy
    What it’s all about
    In case you didn’t know, fly fishing isn’t really about fishing. It’s about the journey you take to go fishing. Rob’s podcast is about the journey. He’ll tell you about his trip, about the place, the people, food, the environment etc… NOBODY does it better. In the end, you’ll feel like you know Rob. He’s a guide, a dad, a husband, a dude, a fly tier, an entrepreneur, and regular fly fisher just like you and me.
  • Texjbq
    Keep it Up!!
    Thanks Rob for the podcast, really enjoy the gonzo style episodes and the ones that get deep into the science of things.
  • DC Angler
    Fantastic
    I'm just starting out as a new angler in the DC area and these podcasts are incredibly helpful - I highly recommend them!
  • riverWrangler
    entertaining and fun to listen to. well done Rob.
    This is a fun and refreshing podcast. I love fly fishing and really dislike most things on the popular media. Fly fishing podcasts are my favorite things to listen to. And rod keeps it fresh and entertaining. I do not listen to the show for information, but, I am interested to hear Rob's take on various aspects of fly fishing. Like rob, I fish the Salmon River, NY a lot. Keep up the good work, although, i would highly recommend getting rid of the "all right......all right.....all right" and any further mention of beargarita......accpet it.....real spey rodders drink single molt.....or atleast a robust stout...... all kidding aside......its fun to listen to this podcast. best, rw
  • trout bum
    Entertaining
    Rob has a unique style, part story-teller, part instructor. Self deprecating style makes it an easy listen and the interviews he gets are great.
  • Grenside
    Nick
    Great podcast. Has evolved over the last few years and is now one of my favourites. I gave the first review for this podcast a while back and am glad to see it pick up in popularity. I would love to fish with Rob, but live in the UK. One day!
  • Icetallica
    Great Podcast
    Rob's passion about fishing makes this podcast a great and informative source for people who want to learn or already indulged in fishing. If it's you that I'm talking about, subscribe!!!
  • Ezra Weston
    Excellent Podcasts
    I am new to fly fishing and live in Northern Virginia. Robs podcasts are excellent. He has a vast array of knowledge and mixes it well with humor. He has helped me learn about all aspects of fly fishing on my long commute to/from work. If you are into fly fishing, give these a look.
  • Christopher Hevener
    Great podcasts
    Very informative podcasts, enjoy hearing about Ohio steelhead fishing and the Salmon River.
  • KevinUSAF

    My Favorite Fly Fishing Podcast
    This, in my humble opinion, is the best all around flyfishing podcast available. It is a perfect mix of humor, storytelling, and helpful, extensive information drawn from personal experiences. I am a complete novice fly fisher and have only been doing it for a few months (out here in northern Arizona), but I've scoured the interwebs for good podcasts and Rob Snowhite's is the best!
  • AlyZeitz
    Snakehead

    Keep Them Coming!
    Rob's down-to-earth, conversational style keep his podcasts highly entertaining and easy to listen to. His background in Biology and his extensive experience on the water keep the content useful and educational. I really enjoy listening to his shows and I look forward to more in the future!
  • RupeJ
    Great podcast
    I enjoy this podcast. Rob does a great job of explaining the techical side of flyfishing to the layman. His knowledge of fish biology as well as his passion for fishing are evident in each podcast. However, the audio is sometimes low quality which makes it hard to hear without playing at the highest volume. Keep up the good work!
