Description
Welcome to Captain Pauly’s Podcast! I have been a fishing guide in Venice, Louisiana for the last decade. During my time guiding I met some of the most entertaining characters and heard some of the most incredible stories you could imagine. After much thought, I decided to create my own podcast to preserve and encapsulate these stories to the best of my ability. My guests include charter captains, tournament fisherman, commercial fisherman, boat builders, marine biologist, fishing industry professionals, and many avid recreational fisherman. I hope you will join me as I continue to do my best to produce the most entertaining and most profound water-based conversations possible!
