Kelly Galloup’s personality is as vibrant and electric as a bag of smelling salts. He’s as raw and beautiful as my tarpon brothers in Homosassa. All this energy is exemplified by how he aggressively pursued the truth about streamers and how to fish them. Often he would submerge himself underwater and silently drift down the river examining where the fish were holding and learned that many big fish were in places he never targeted. His artistic mind exploded with fly designs and he started creating flies that would articulate and swim differently that the old standard patterns, which were thrown as an after thought when nothing else worked. Overnight he changed the game! Everyone started to streamer fish with his flies and began to regularly catch giants. People started to fish revered rivers differently, and he became famous with a cult like following. The older traditionalist didn’t like it at all. He is different, a disrupter, a dang force to be reckoned with, he is Kelly Galloup! On todays podcast, we cover all this and more in great detail…

(From November 25, 2024) I fished for two decades before I finally realized that not every river, not every creek or stream has big fish. For most of my early days of fishing, I thought there was a different class of fish in some of my favorite waters that I simply never encountered. And I liked to think that if I fished certain ways at certain times, I would finally catch those fish. But many years later, after more experience and after finally fishing all of the ways that are supposed to help you find the biggest fish — night fishing, streamer fishing, etc. — I also met many like minded anglers and became friends with enough obsessed fishermen whose stories and accounts I could trust. And I realized, no one catches big trout out of some of these waters. Why do some rivers hold big trout? This is a topic that has come up between all of us on long drives, around the tailgate, and on long walks along the riverbank. Why is it that some rivers just do not have any size to the fish, and then, maybe just the next valley over, not only is the average size larger, but the top tier fish is bigger too? We're here to talk about it .
