Description

On today's episode of the Trout Wrangler Podcast, we sit down with Joe from Columbia PFG to talk about his journey through fly fishing, creative work, and the conservation side of the outdoor industry.

Joe shares how his time at the University of Georgia helped shape his passion for content and storytelling and how it eventually led him to his current role with Columbia PFG. We dive into Columbia's recent collaborations — including the hit Paul Puckett collection — and talk about what's next for the brand, from future artist partnerships to upcoming conservation-focused projects.

We also cover the wildly popular College Tailgate Series that's been popping up at some of the biggest college football matchups across the country. Joe gives us an inside look at the behind-the-scenes planning, what makes these events so special, and whether fans can expect to see them continue into bowl season.

And, of course, we wrap up the episode with a little Georgia football talk and Joe's five picks for the Trout Tunes Playlist, presented by Afuera Coffee.
