Ep 129: Choosing the Right Technique, with Charles Humphrey III
Charles Humphrey III is a Grammy Award–winning bluegrass musician who has played with the Steep Canyon Rangers and, currently, the Songs From the Road Band. He is also the owner of Beast Coast Anglers, a fishing guide service covering Tennessee, North Carolina, and Georgia. In this episode, we start by talking a bit about his music career and what it’s like to be a professional songwriter and bluegrass artist. Then, we dive into various fishing techniques including indicator nymphing, tightline nymphing, streamer fishing, dry-dropper rigs, double-dry rigs, and dry-emerger setups. We talk about how to fish each effectively and when Charles would use one technique over another.
